   Ariel Castro fathered Amanda Berry's child, made Michele Knight abort five times

Ohio kidnapping victims Amanda Berry, Georgina DeJesus and Michele Knight lived through a terrifying ordeal, being raped and impregnated, on multiple occasions.

As I previously reported, they were first kept in the basement by Ariel Castro, then allowed to live upstairs while prevented to leave with the use of a “big inside door.”

Amanda Berry gave birth to Castro's now 6-year-old daughter Jocelyn in a baby pool. Knight helped her through the birth and applied CPR to the little girl when she had trouble breathing, after being born.

She did all that while her life was being threatened.

"Michelle stated that Ariel told her that if the baby died, that he'd kill her," the police report reads, as conveyed by WKYC.

Knight miscarried five times, due to ill treatment by Castro and his specific intention to make her abort on every occasion.

"He starved her for at least two weeks, then he repeatedly punched her in the stomach until she miscarried," police sources say.
