Ariel Castro’s Suicide Might Have Actually Been Autoerotic Asphyxiation

A report into the death of evil Ohio kidnapper and rapist Ariel Castro “suggests — but does not conclude — that Castro may have died as the result of auto-erotic asphyxiation, whereby individuals achieve sexual satisfaction while choking themselves into unconsciousness,” in part because his pants and underwear were pulled down. On the other hand: Castro “had the Bible open and had pictures of his family laid out in a poster board format on the floor.” No note was found.
