In one of the most bizarre twists of the Cleveland “house of horrors” story, the daughter of accused rapist Ariel Castro was best friends with Gina DeJesus, and may have been the last person to see the victim before the girl was kidnapped in 2004 at age 14.

Michael Gore Walks
As Michael Gore leans forward, the robotic legs strapped to his body begin to move. He tilts left then right and with the aid of the “wearable robot”, he begins to walk.

Seriously – bust out the kleenex and wait for your lower lip to start trembling uncontrollably.

Ariel Castro kidnapped his victims by offering them rides, then chained them in the basement of his home on Cleveland’s West Side, where they were repeatedly raped over the course of a decade, prosecutors say. Castro, 52, was formally charged Wednesday with three counts of rape and four counts of kidnapping, among other charges.
