you may whine you been dealt a bad hand in life, and then you read stuff like this.

The man accused of kidnapping three Cleveland women and holding them for close to a decade abused all of them but used captive Michelle Knight as his main "punching bag," a family friend of one of the victims told CNN.

The friend said suspect Ariel Castro hit Knight with a variety of objects, including hand weights. She has suffered vision loss, joint and muscle damage, and other problems from her time in captivity.

..

According to an initial incident report obtained by CNN, the three women told police Castro had abducted them between 2002 and 2004, held them captive and sexually assaulted them.

The family friend said Castro treated Berry slightly better than the other two women and Knight was treated the worst. All three women were underweight, the friend said.

...

Berry gave birth to a daughter fathered by Castro, according to DNA testing by the Ohio state crime lab.

Knight said she became pregnant at least five times while in Castro's 1,400-square-foot home, according to the incident report.

When that happened, she told investigators, Castro "starved her for at least two weeks, then he repeatedly punched her in the stomach until she miscarried."

Knight said he ordered her to deliver Berry's child, according to a police source familiar with the investigation.

The baby was delivered in a plastic tub or pool in order to contain the afterbirth and amniotic fluid, the source said.

Panic ensued soon after. The child stopped breathing, and everyone started screaming, the source said, citing accounts by the young women.

Knight said Castro threatened to kill her if the baby did not survive, the initial police report states.

"What's most incredible here is that this girl who knows nothing about childbirth was able to deliver a baby that is now a healthy 6-year-old," the police source said.

Oh no...you just angered the Cardinals of Secularism on SuCH.

Wonder what Pravalika Nanda, MAX, JM, Merlot, PP will say on this case....Let me guess, they reserve the right not to comment on this inconvenient question - at least without an if or a but.

All pain, suffering..even happiness are so relative indeed!

An incredible story of human survival and resilience (words seem so inadequate)..esp, Ms. Knight, who was helping others while she was being tortured.She should be included among "People who refused to die"..

Secularism?? Why should Propa's desire to see some lowlife killed anger those who believe in the separation of religion and state?? Please give yourself a pat on the back for your breathtaking stupidity.
