She was running late to a meeting regarding custody for her son, and after stopping at a store to ask for directions, another customer, Castro, offered to help. He had abducted Lee back on August 22, 2002, when she was 21 years old. The man who had kidnapped and imprisoned the three women, and fathered Berry’s daughter through rape, was Ariel Castro, a 52-year-old with a history of domestic violence. When police arrived, two more women emerged: Georgina “Gina” DeJesus and Michelle Knight, who now goes by the name Lily Rose Lee. He helped break out Berry and her 6-year-old daughter, Jocelyn. That day, Amanda Berry had managed to stick her arm out from behind a padlocked storm door and call for help from neighbor Charles Ramsey.
