They were held in brutal captivity-and managed to make it out alive. This is their story. The Lost Girls are Michelle Knight, Amanda Berry, and Gina DeJesus-three innocent young women who were kidnapped, imprisoned, and repeatedly molested and beaten in a Cleveland home basement for over a decade by a depraved man named Ariel Castro. Their incredible escape, in May 2013, made headlines all over the world.
