Ariel Castro gave a chilling and delusional speech today mere moments before being sentenced to life in prison plus 1,000 years for over 900 counts of kidnapping, rape and other crimes.

The first girl kidnapped, Michelle Knight, was reportedly impregnated by Castro five times and forced to miscarry each time by being beaten and starved.
