What was said
"I literally cry. Because it put me back in a place where I knew what they felt like and what they were going through. And I just want to let them know that whatever is happening to them that is not their fault."
Lily Rose Lee, formerly Michelle Knight, who survived 11 years of captivity by Ariel Castro in Cleveland, responded emotionally to news of 16 children found living in deplorable conditions in rural Ohio. Lee, now an advocate for abuse survivors, shared advice for the rescued children emphasizing the importance of finding a strong support system and taking recovery one day at a time. She revealed it took her a year and a half to begin trusting people again after her rescue.
