"Ariel Castro Found Hanging In His Cell"

"52-year-old convicted kidnapper and rapist Ariel Castro was found hanging in his cell Tuesday."
Castro was being held at the Correction Reception Center in Orient, OH in Pickaway County.
He was sentenced August 1 to life in prison, plus 1,000 years, for kidnapping and sexually assaulting Amanda Berry, Michelle Knight and Gina DeJesus while holding them captive in his Seymour Avenue house for over a decade.

Well, that was too easy.

Ordinarily, I'd say that it's impossible to hang one's self under those circumstances, but I'd also have said that it's impossible to hold onto three totally hot sex slaves for a decade, so Mr. Castro would seem to be a man of extraordinary talant and achievement, and so I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt on this one.

"Looks like he didn't like being held in a cell."

Where do you get rope in a jail cell?

I would hope prison officials leave lots of 3-foot pieces of rope "just laying around".

Castro's now hanging from Satan's charm bracelet.

Obamacare early bird?

The guards looked the other way.

Abusers (usually child, but, in his case, I'm sure an exception was made) often end up with some prison justice being dealt.

For a few minutes, we can only hope, he knew a little of what those women had gone through.

He knew how horrible imprisonment is first hand, and he couldn't face it.

He was doomed anyway. Bad enough being a child molester, but also being someone who imprisoned people was not going to make him popular in the big house. Most deadly was that he embarrassed the latino "race" he was about to be locked up with. He had no chance of long term survival.

I wonder which part made him sad, the life in prison or the 1000 years afterward. He sure is touchy about being held against his will. Oh wait.

From some guard who gives it to him with a wink and a nod.

He probably took his prison clothing, tore it into long pieces, tied them together for enough rope to hang himself. I would say that he tied the rope to the top part of the bars.

Too bad that he wasn't beaten to death.

How can we be sure Castro didn't just Carradine himself. After all, it must be tough going from regular trim to no trim at all.

I guess he decided to hang it up and quit hanging around.

If you don't want someone to hang themselves then you need to have 24 hour CONSTANT surveillance. A guy I know who is a Federal Prison shrink told me that.
