Lets say that the cops did actually go to the house on the McDonald's call. As stupid as that sounds, um then what. They can't go investigate the whole house. All they can do is ask him what's up and that wouldn't be reported. The lady who called could be fined for the stupidity of calling 911 over McDonald's. I'm sick and tired of people blaming the police, they did nothing wrong.

Ask anyone around here, I'm definitely not one of those "**** the police" types around here. I just think the whole "Oh it's people just trying to cash in 15 minutes of fame." Argument is a terrible one. If it was one guy? Sure. 2? Yeah. But practically the whole neighborhood has said they told someone about suspicious activity at the house. The women in this case say they were never in the backyard. I have to ask, how would they know. By all accounts, whenever they were moved they were blindfolded. I'm just saying, there's trying to get your name in the paper and then there's coming up with such detail stories to sell to the press. I really have no clue how they keep police records but it's very possible to me that they don't even write up reports for "house calls" so to speak unless something went down. Also, I'm not a conspiracy theorist either.

I also think its too early to say the police did nothing wrong. There will be an investigation into their actions over the last 10 years. I'm going to wait and see.

The oldest woman (Michelle Knight) wants nothing to do with her family, and it looks like she will move in with the DeJesus family http://www.christianpost.com/news/k...-adopted-by-gina-dejesus-parents-video-95692/

Her mom hired a lawyer to force some sort of reconciliation. She should have hired a private investigator 10 years ago instead.

Unfortunately, I won't be surprised if other young girls who were missing ended up in some deranged sexual psychopath's basement somewhere. Cleveland police probably would've discovered it years ago if not for their incompetence.

A couple of years ago, I was working in insurance, and I took a call from Cleveland where a terrified woman told me she'd been kidnapped as a young woman and was being held against her will, and had been for almost 10 years. Consulted with Legal and we called both the FBI and the Cleveland PD. Now, in this particular case, the woman turned out to be schizo, with a history of this kind of thing, but based on my conversations with law enforcement officials elsewhere afterward and some insurance investigators who had worked closely with the CPD for years, the Cleveland PD apparently doesn't always take these kinds of allegations seriously, regardless of the source. Betting they will now.

Yeah, there definitely seemed to be an indifference about Knight's family. The other two reported abductions and appealed to the public endlessly to get their daughters back. I realize Knight was older, but her mom thought "she ran away, whatev," and never bothered to investigate deeper even after not hearing a peep from her in 10 years. I also think Knight suffered the most. She was the one who had five forced miscarriages by repeated starvations and beatings. Just terrible. She deserves peace and if she doesn't want contact her family should respect her wishes.

He's pleading not guilty. Hahahahahahahaha what's the point

 

[NickNitro]

Apparently he is pleading Not Guilty....I didn't believe it until I read this.

These defense lawyers have some ****ing balls on them.

[Whiskey Tango]

Ugh.

 

[Darthphere]

On what grounds is he pleading not guilty? I would think he would have plead guilty to avoid death. Makes no damn sense.

 

[regwec]

Perhaps he would take death over prison. He can always hope for some sort of irregularity in the prosecution.

There is NO way the defense attorney's could possibly think we could get out of this? I have no idea why he would plead not guilty.

I am dont know law for crud, but I think this screws his chances for a mis trial and other stuff right?

 

[regwec]

Not too sure about US law, but as a matter of principle the final say on a plea always belongs to the defendant: if you are determined that you are innocent, then your counsel are obliged to respect that.

 

[NickNitro]

No what I was asking was, when pleading not guilty to a crime you lose some privileges then say if you pleaded no contest or guilty right? At least I think thats right from what I vaguely recall lol

Charles Ramsey Free burgers for life! Who called it!? Who called it!

Meh. I'm about all Ramsey-ed out. Don't care about his priors. Do care about the fact he apparently stole credit from the first guy who was helping on the scene, a Spanish neighbor who doesn't speak English. Where are his burgers and Anderson Cooper interviews?

Bye bye Castro

The other guy is better off. I'm not sure I would want all that media attention, even though I would have done the same thing. And all those free burgers would kill you before your time.

 

[Teelie]

I don't see how he could possibly plead not guilty and hope to somehow be found not guilty. At least he confessed to his crime.

Plus, now Ramsey is broke and homeless and lost his job.

This scum did just that to avoid the possible death penalty.

No he's not.

[regwec]

Damn. I would advise him to sue the Mail for defamation, which is easy in the UK. If he could convince the court that their claim damaged the earning potential of his merchandise, he could net a tidy sum.

Ohio corrections officials say Ariel Castro who held three women captive
in his home for nearly a decade has committed suicide at a state prison facility.
