    Should be an interesting trial process.

    Every now and then these stories have a "happy ending." It's great that they're alive, but what they've been through over the last decade would probably make a maggot puke. I hope they can go on to find happiness and can put the loss of 10 formative years behind them.

    Oddly written story. Why is there no information about the third woman?

    The most chilling part of the story ...

    Yeah. Like the girl/woman in California. It's a "happy ending" in that they're alive, but they're not going to have a happy story to tell.

    They want to contact relatives first?

    The 911 call is already online? And from an Australian news outlet.

    The third woman, Michelle Knight, was an unknown. She went missing as an adult. The other two have been in the news for years and years. If you pay attention to the news in Cleveland you know who they are. There was just a vigil held for Amanda Berry a couple weeks ago on the 10th anniversary of her disappearance.

    I'm hoping the children were the offspring of the kidnapped women and not additional victims (not that they aren't, but you know what I mean).

    That's kind of a logical thought, because it appears the guy was into kidnapping teens, not 3-year-olds. But it raises the question of what kind of medical care -- pre-natal, delivery and post-natal -- whoever had the baby got.

    Psychic told Amanda Berry's mom her daughter was dead on Montel Williams in 2004: http://www.wkyc.com/news/story.aspx?storyid=26501

    From the original story, Berry's mother died of heart failure in 2006, never knowing she was still alive.


    So Montel, you and your fucking quack psychic can eat an extra steaming slice of shit sandwich tonight. Of course you don't give a fuck, but you should.

    Now it's being reported three brothers are the suspects in this.
