ARIEL CASTRO: il mostro di Cleveland

SE SIETE SENSIBILI NON LEGGETE, IL CONTENUTO POTREBBE URTARE LA VOSTRA SENSIBILITA’

Cari lettori, appassionati di crimini e horror, prima di iniziare devo chiedere scusa per la mia lunghissima assenza, purtroppo ci metto davvero del tempo per ricercare e riassumere le informazioni, tempo che in questo periodo non ho avuto, non voglio fare inutili promesse, spero solo di riuscire ad aggiornare il prima possibile. Detto questo possiamo passare a parlare del caso di Ariel Castro o meglio del terribile caso del rapimento di tre giovani ragazze, io preferisco mettere al primo posto sempre le vittime che il colpevole, per capire meglio come ha avuto inizio tutto però dobbiamo partire proprio da lui, il mostro di Cleveland, Ariel Castro.

Ariel Castro nacque a San Juan nel 1960. Dopo il divorzio dei genitori, Castro si trasferì negli USA con la madre e tre dei suoi fratelli. La famiglia si trasferì in Pennsylvania e dopo a Cleveland in Ohio. Castro aveva 9 fratelli. Nel 1979 si diplomò. Castro incontrò Grimilda Figuroa, colei che diventerà la sua fidanzata, quando la famiglia si trasferì nella casa di fronte negli anni ‘80. Castro e Figueroa si trasferirono in una loro casa nel 1992. La casa dove si traferirono era a due piani per un totale di 130 metri quadrati . Aveva 4 camere da letto, un bagno e un seminterrato di 71 metri quadrati. Secondo la sorella di Grimilda qui iniziò tutto. Altri vicini sostengono che Catro avesse picchiato più volte Figuroa arrivando a romperle naso, costole e braccia, la fece cadere dalle scale spaccandole il cranio, grazie a queste testimonianze venne arrestato nel 1993 per violenza domestica. Nel 1996 Grimilda lasciò la casa portando con sé i suoi 4 figli. Castro continuò a minacciare l’ormai ex compagnia e in un fascicolo risalente al 2005 si scoprì che Castro aveva inflitto a Grimilda ferite multiple gravi. Fu concesso un ordine restrittivo nei confronti di Castro che venne annullato dopo pochi mesi. Grimilda morì nel 2012 per un tumore al cervello.

Castro oltre alle violenze contro l’ex ragazza aveva commesso anche altri “piccoli” reati, lui aveva un lavoro come autista di bus, oltre a guidare illegalmente con i bambini dentro come per esempio fare inversioni a U o guidare in contromano, lasciava i bimbi sul mezzo per andare a fare la spesa o altre faccende. Tra il 2010-2012 la casa di Castro era in preclusione per tasse immobiliari non pagate.  Da qui possiamo spostarci un po’ dalla vita di Castro e iniziare a parlare dei rapimenti. 

IL PRIMO RAPIMENTO Michelle knight nata il 23 aprile 1981, scomparve il 23 agosto 2002. Lei tornava a casa dal cugino quando incontrò Castro e accettò il suo passaggio, la famiglia di Michelle e Castro si conoscevano avendo abitato nello stesso quartiere quando Castro si trasferì a Cleveland. Quando venne rapita Michelle aveva solo 21 anni. Proprio il giorno del rapimento lei si sarebbe dovuta recare in tribunale per l’affidamento del figlio . Dopo il salvataggio, la polizia riconobbe i suoi errori nel non aver dato molto peso a questa scomparsa.

IL SECONDO RAPIMENTO Amanda Berry nata il 22 aprile, 1986 scomparve il 21 aprile 2003, il giormo prima del suo 17esimo compleanno, l’ultima volta venne sentita dalla sorella a cui diceva di star tornando a casa dal lavoro. Anche qui la polizia fece un lavoro molto superficiale dando per scontato che Amanda fosse una fuggiasca, questo cambiò radicalmente solo dopo una settimana quando un uomo sconosciuto usò il telefono di Amanda per chiamare la madre dicendo “Ho Amanda, sta bene e tornerà a casa tra un paio di giorni”. Il 25 dicembre 2006 Amanda diede alla luce un figlio di cui padre biologico proprio Ariel Castro. Nel luglio 2012 un detenuto disse di avere informazioni sulla posizione del corpo di Amanda e venne condannato a 4 anni e mezzo di reclusione per falso allarme.

IL TERZO RAPIMENTO Gina DeJesus nata il 13 febbraio 1990, scomparve all’età di 14 anni, venne vista per l’ultima volta ad un telefono pubblico alle 3 del pomeriggio del 2 aprile 2004 mentre tornava a casa dalla scuola. Gina e la sua amica, la figlia di Castro, avevano chiamato Grimilda per avere il permesso per fare un pigiama party a casa del padre. Grimilda disse di no così le due si separarono e fu proprio la figlia di Castro a vedere per l’ultima volta l’amica.

LA PRIGIONIA Quando Knight fu rapita, Castro la portò al piano di sopra, la legò e la lasciò lì per tre giorni e solo il terzo giorno le diede da mangiare. Nei diari che le tre ragazze scrivevano, si trovarono testimonianze di violenze sessuali, violenza domestica e ogni tipo di abuso. I sogni delle ragazze non era più quelli di andare sulla luna ma di tornare dalle loro famiglie. Per molti anni le tre ragazze non furono mai portate al piano di sotto perché Castro aveva paura che riuscissero a scappare o chiedere aiuto. Non potevano utilizzare il bagno, venivano nutrite con un solo pasto al giorno e potevano fare la doccia massimo due volte a settimana. Knight riferì alla polizia che Castro la mise incinta almeno cinque volte secondo lei ma che ogni volta le procurava un aborto, picchiandola ripetutamente con oggetti, la nonna della ragazza arrivò a dire che avrebbe avuto bisogno di un intervento chirurgico per ricostruire il viso e perse l’udito da un orecchio. DeJesus invece disse che Castro aveva abusato di lei molte volte ma che non pensava l’avesse mai messa incinta. A dicembre del 2006 Castro costrinse Knight ad aiutare Berry a partorire e in caso la bimba/o fosse nata/o morta/o lei avrebbe fatto la stessa fine. La neonata sopravvisse e Castro occasionalmente la portava fuori dai “nonni”. Nel 2013 mostrò alle figlie la foto della bimba dicendo che fosse la figlia della sua nuova compagna.

Il 6 maggio 2013, Berry fu in grado di entrare in contatto con i vicini, fuggendo con sua figlia di sei anni e salvando così anche le due ragazze. Berry disse che quel giorno notò che la porta era rimasta socchiusa, mentre la zanzariera più esterna era chiusa. Non era raro che Castro lasciasse “vie di fuga” era un modo per metterle alla prova e se avessero provato a fuggire le avrebbe picchiate a sangue. Quel giorno Berry attraversò la porta ma non tentò di aprire l’altra porta iniziò a gridare e riuscì ad allarmare i vicini che sfondarono la porta e liberarono Berry e la figlia. Cordero fu il primo vicino a mettersi in contatto con Berry ma parlando poco l’inglese non riuscì a comunicare a lui si aggiunse un altro vicino e in due riuscirono a liberare la ragazza che chiamò il 911 segnalando l’emergenza. Gli agenti intervennero subito, entrando in casa dicendo di essere poliziotti, le due ragazze diffidenti non uscirono subito pensando fosse un giochino fatto da Castro, una volta che vennero messe in salvo e portate in ospedale, Berry e DeJesus vennero rilasciate dopo un giorno mentre Knight dopo quattro, l’incubo per lei finì il 10 maggio.

IL PROCESSO Castro venne arrestato il 6 maggio 2013, l’8 maggio venne condannato per 4 capi di imputazione per sequestro di persona e stupro. Castro comparve per la prima volta davanti ad un giudice il 9 maggio, dove venne fissata una cauzione di 2 milioni per l’accusa del sequestro di persona e sommata agli altri reati arrivano ad un massimo 8 milioni. Il 14 maggio gli avvocati di Castro dissero che il loro cliente intendeva dichiararsi “non colpevole”. Il 12 luglio la Contea di Cuyahoga imputò a carico di Castro 977 accuse, il 17 luglio si dichiarò nuovamente “non colpevole”. Il 26 luglio invece si dichiarò colpevole di 937 accuse tra cui omicidio aggravato per aver provocato l’aborto, sequestro e stupro. All’udienza  di condanna del primo agosto 2013, Castro venne condannato all’ergastolo senza condizionale e fu multato per 100000 dollari, la corte confiscò tutti i suoi beni.  Prima della sua condanna Castro passò 20 minuti con il giudice spiegando di essere dipendente dalla pornografia ma di non aver mai picchiato le ragazze e che la maggior parte degli atti sessuali consumati erano consensuali. Il giudice poi sentì le tre ragazze e Knight si rivolse direttamente a Castro dicendo “Hai preso 11 anni della mia vita, ho passato 11 anni d’inferno, ora il tuo inferno è appena iniziato, supererò tutto quello che è successo, ma affronterai l’inferno per l’eternità. Morirai un po’ ogni giorno pensando agli 11 anni di atrocità che hai inflitto a noi. Posso perdonarti, ma non dimenticherò mai”.

La casa venne demolita il 7 agosto 2013 e Knight lanciò dei palloncini gialli che rappresentavano i bimbi che Castro aveva ucciso ancora prima che nascessero.

Castro morì il 3 settembre 2013, uh mese dopo la condanna, venne trovato impiccato con il lenzuolo. La salma venne cremata, non è nota l’ubicazione delle ceneri.

Eccoci qui, alla fine della nostra storia, non ho parole per descrivere le atrocità che queste tre ragazze giovanissime avranno passato, sono content* che abbiano trovato di nuovo la libertà. L’unica cosa che mi sento di dire a chiunque sia arrivato fin qui è state sempre attenti, un grazie e alla prossima.  

So, this book is a scam.

Kind of.  Accidentally maybe?  So I took a family studies class and my teacher listed Annual Editions: The Family as one of our required textbooks.  So I bought it, since required.  But when I was writing one of the assigned article summaries i was too lazy to walk across the room and get the book so i googled the article and there it was free on the internet.

It wasn’t until class was almost over that it occurred to me to wonder just how many of the articles were free on the internet and spent a few hours googling every title in the book.  Out of 56 articles four were only available to people with a subscription to The Atlantic and six I could only find as abstracts. 

So my classmates and I dropped good money mostly for free articles!  A scam?  I can’t think of any other word for it.  During a global pandemic while some of us have lost our jobs. That’s pretty epic scummy. Did our teacher know?  I did ASK the teacher-- nicely, didn’t want to accused her.  She dodged the question and just said “students like having the articles all in one place.” I don’t think my kind teacher was scamming us, I think she just didn’t think.  The publisher may actually be epic scummy.

So if you get assigned an Annual Editions, try to wrangle a list of articles out of your teacher so you don’t have to pay for it.  And then be angry.  In these uncertain times we gotta protect people from scumbaggery when it appears.

Butter-fly Cover List

Since I listen to so many Butter-fly covers, I decided to sort them out! All of these are amazing, so if you haven’t listened to some, I highly suggest giving them a try! (There are multiple languages below)

Here’s the Playlist with all of these songs

1. Butter-fly Female Cover 2015  (Japanese/Full)

This song did both Kōji Wada and the Digimon Franchise justice. All of the singers go together so well, and they’re all unique. The piano at the beginning sets the tone so well. It’s one that you have to listen to. You won’t regret it!

2. 夕凪 夜/Younagi Yoru (Japanese/Full)

His voice took me so off guard. It’s so beautiful. Him doing echoes on the last verse was done effectively, I do wish that the background music was a little different from the original, but that’s if I was extremely picky. 

3. The Unknown Songbird (English/Full)

Morgan Berry has always been one of my favorite singers for anime covers, even though she hasn’t done many. Her translation of Butter-fly are close to the original and she has a strong voice to sing it. It’s a great English cover overall, and the instrumental is also close to the original!

4. Amalee (English/TV Sized)

What I would do to get her to make a full version of this! Each time I hear this, a smile forms on my face. The lyrics do stray from the original though, but Amanda’s singing makes it all worth it!

5. V0RA (Korean/Full)

How can this sound so original but so much like Koji Wada’s version? The lyrics have the same message as the original but the lyrics aren’t close to the original. She adds words in-between instrumental breaks and transposes the final verse to give it an awesome affect! Her voice is beautiful and I wish it had more views (also she rocks those ski goggles)

6. Tsuko G. (Japanese/Full) and ROMIX/ROMI (Japanese/Full)

We have a tie! Tsuko G. has an amazing instrumental and a great way of portraying background voices. He’s also an amazing singer with great diction and pronunciation. While Romix’s version is a recent cover, with the instrumental arrangement sounding more like Tri’s version of Butter-fly. Romix has such a gentle yet strong voice, it’s hard to describe it! They’re both great to listen to!

7. Raon Lee (Korean/Full) 

This one is a basic cover. Raon uses the original instrumental (or it’s close/edited) and she repeats the first verse. But all of these factors make it charming and vanilla, in a way. It’s a great listen and it will always have a place in my heart.

8. Ayu Brazil (Portuguese/Full)

I love the guitar in this. It fits the song perfectly and mixes well with Ayu and the other instruments. And her voice is soft but firm. The song as a whole is great.

9. ひろみちゃんねる/Hiromi Channel (Japanese/Full)

The instrumental in this is so AMAZING! It isn’t like the original but has the same melody. And her voice goes so well with it! It’s a unique cover that stands out from the rest (for a good reason).

10. Raon Lee (Japanese/Full)

Now, this is Raon’s more recent cover on Butter-fly. I enjoyed this one, and I got excited when she announced it while doing Brave Heart. Her Japanese is great and she sounds like she’s having so much fun. I do prefer her Korean one, but you should listen to this too!

11. Sapphire (English/Full)

The English translation is really good in this cover! Even though it might be far from the Japanese lyrics (it does say “in my love”, which does bug me a little), the English translation is really good! It has the same vibe as the original. She’s a great singer and it’s a great song!

That was the top eleven! Here are the other amazing covers:

12. コバソロ & 七穂/Kobasolo & Naho (Japanese/Full)

13. Seira channel (Japanese/Full)

14. Animalmack (Japanese/Full)

15. FlushtenMusic (Spanish/Full)

16. Jacob Chapman (English/TV Sized) *Suggested by gwydionae*

17. MyuMyu (Korean/Full)

18. Nanaru (Korean/Full)

19. Sanca Records (Japanese/Full)

20. David Delgado - Laharl - (Latino/Full)

21. 설레임 에디션/Seolreim Edition (Korean/Full)

22. Omar Caban -YuriFoX- (Spanish/Full)

23.  Kauvaras (English/Full)

24. レイコ (Reiko) & GILLEsounds (English/TV Size)

25. Benjamín Padilla Hernández (Spanish/Full)

26. poisonousparadox (English/TV Sized)

27. LilRadRidingHood (English/Full)

28.  Daniel Yehezkeli (English Full) *Uses Lyrics from Sapphire and AmaLee*

29. The Covers Duo (Latino/Full)

30. Studio aLf (Japanese/Full)

31. KEH (English/Full) *Does take the lyrics/mix that Sapphire made*

32. Canal Tragicômico (Português/Full)

33. Gesta Yuria (15 Languages/Full)

34. Pellek (Japanese/Full)

35. Ayu Brazil (Japanese/TV Size)

If there are any that I missed (which I know I did), please contact me! I would add them to the list!

movie sex: valid or not valid?

Because I have nothing better to do and am the resident movie sexpert, I’m going to rate every single sex scene in this Buzzfeed List of Supposedly Hot Movie Sex Scenes based on its validity (which probably isn’t much).

1. Queen and Slim.  Off to a shameful start in that well I have not seen this, however as Jodie Turner-Smith is involved I’m gonna preemptively say it’s valid.

2. Swimfan.  I have not seen this either but the guy is ugly.  I only tolerate so many people I don’t find attractive.  Not valid.

3. Titanic, the scene where Jack lost his virginity.  EXTREMELY VALID.  The sex steam!  “You’re trembling”!  The way he had no idea what her plan was until she made him grab her tit!

4. Chloe, the scene with Julianne Moore and Amanda Seyfried having mommy issues sex.  I would say valid, but in fact this movie is pretty problematic and plays into the psycho lesbian trope and is a remake of a movie that DOESN’T, so not valid.

5. Dirty Dancing.  Valid, because she touches his butt and also because every time you watch this with someone who grew up in the 80s they’re GUARANTEED to be like “and this part this part THIS PART” when he carelessly tosses her shirt aside.

6. Brokeback Mountain, the tent scene.  Loses points for the lack of lube, but I don’t think archive of our own existed back then so they wouldn’t have known their mistakes.  Also, easily the hottest tent sex.  Valid.

7. Unfaithful, the stairwell scene.  FUCK YES HELL YEAH GOOD SHIT GET IT.  Very valid cheating sex.

8. Indecent Proposal, Demi Moore has sex with her husband, not billionaire Robert Redford.  Lol what a bait and switch, I watched this because it’s my dream to get paid a million to have sex with someone and I have to watch Woody Harrelson have sex?  No thanks.  Not valid.

9. Anna Karenina, when Anna and Vronsky like, dance-fuck?  Fuck-dance?  I don’t know.  Vronsky’s hair is absolutely atrocious, and his mustache makes me feel like he shouldn’t be allowed around children, but this scene is very pretty.  Also, if you’re asking God for forgiveness after sex you probably did it right.  Valid.

10. Out of Sight, Clooney and JLo.  One of those sex scenes that’s like, intercut with the convo leading up to the sex, which can be hit or miss but it’s very sultry and 90s here.  Valid.

11. Vicky Cristina Barcelona, the threesome scene.  First off, lol, WHAT SCENE, you don’t even see shit.  Second, Woody Allen probably got his rocks off to this so instantly NOT VALID.

12. The Girl on the Train.  On Buzzfeed, this is described as, “when Luke Evans goes down on his wife”, and I agree.  VALID.

13. Monster’s Ball.  ............... Halle Berry is very good in this movie.  Is the movie a good movie?  Is this a good sex scene?  Also Billy Bob Thornton is there?  The debates about storytelling and realism can go on and on, but in terms of what I’m judging things by, which is good sex scene-ness,  not valid.

14. Black Swan. Natalie Portman fucks herself but it’s actually Mila Kunis.  You know how things can get when one knows oneself.  Very valid, as is the entire movie.

15. Body of Evidence.  I haven’t seen this movie, but the person who submitted it to Buzzfeed describes it as “the oral and then penetrative sex”, so I don’t trust them first off.  Second, Willem Dafoe and Madonna?  I worry.  Not valid.

16. Roadhouse.  Another movie where every woman who was a teenager in the 80s brings it up like “Have you seen Roadhouse?” with That Gleam in their eye.  Valid.

17. Conversations with Other Women.  I’ve never seen this movie and the cap Buzzfeed chose is absolutely ghastly, truly devastating for Aaron Eckhart, who I do not trust because he is not cute.  Not valid.

18. Mr. and Mrs. Smith, the kitchen fuckfight scene.  Listen kids, marriages don’t always work out but you can always look back and watch the moment when Shiloh was conceived!!!  We love witnessing the death of a marriage with brutal boning, QUITE valid.

19. Atonement, the library scene.  Yes!!!  A thousand times yes!!!!  Knightley’s foot gradually lifting off the ground, the “I love yous”, the entire mood getting killed when her kid sister walks in?  Perfection.  Valid.

20. Rocketman, Elton John bones Richard Madden.  So valid!  It’s very sweet and loving even though you know Richard Madden is bad news, and also I totally get why Elton almost lost a career over him.  Same, bro!

21. Y Tu Mama Tambien, the threesome.  Y’all can fuck a Goldfinch, actually attractive men (Gael Garcia Bernal and Diego Luna) actually make out with their actual lips and consummate their erotic friendship while the dying woman they’ve been roadtripping with blows them simultaneously.  Get your fucking shit together.  VALID.

22. The Mountain Between Us.  I.... I feel like a fraud here, but I did not like this scene.  Idris is very hot, but he looks like he’s crying during?  And I mean maybe that’s appropriate considering the fact that they almost died on a mountain, but that’s not my style.  Not valid, but gently.  Tearfully.

23. Her, that scene when Joaquin has phone sex with a robot.  I think that says it all.  Not valid.

24. The Piano, the scene where Harvey Keitel and Holly Hunter finally bone.  Like, am I attracted to Harvey Keitel?  No.  Let us get this disclaimer out there.  Is there some weird shit in this movie?  Yes.  But you can like.................. hear the vigor with which he’s going down on her in this scene......................................... ladies this was directed by a woman and you can TELL.  Valid.

25. A History of Violence, the stair scene.  This movie is very weird to me in so many ways, but like.  That shit.  That shit was..................... something.  Valid.

26. Crimson Peak, Tom Hiddleston fucks his wife when he wants to be fucking his sister.  I made this entire list because I saw the screencap of this scene for the article and laughed aloud.  Oh.  OH, Hiddlesstans.  Y’all think this was sexy?  His pale ass, the way he tried to snakedance his way up her body?  Oh.  Oh, my children.  Watch some other scenes, I beg of you.  Not valid, but a decent effort.

For better or for worse, I have a job that is exempt - to a great degree - from the widespread need for isolation (in the world of news radio, the show must go on). However, I do get days off and thank goodness for that because my brain can only take so much constant pandemic talk.

So! I offer up ‘the ultimate music list’, something I started doing on YouTube last year. Maybe earlier. It’s a living list, it will never be complete. Anyway, listen to the way my music mind rambles! All songs listed on the other side of the keep reading line (not linked, you gotta do some of the work):
