Ariel Castro Plea, The attorneys for a man who is accused of keeping three women in captivity for about a decade say he will plead not guilty to charges of kidnapping and rape.
Attorneys Craig Weintraub and Jay Schlachet told a local television station, WKYC-TV, that Ariel Castro has been portrayed as a "monster" in the media, and after meeting with him Tuesday they didn't see him that way. Weintraub says it was unfair and offensive that "the media and the community want to demonize this man before they know the whole story".
Schlachet said details of Castro's innocence "will be disclosed as the case progresses". Weintraub said that Castro "loves dearly" the child he fathered with alleged kidnap victim Amanda Berry while she was in captivity.
Castro is charged with kidnapping and raping Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight.
