Metanews: Ariel Castro hung his head as he appeared in court charged over the kidnapping of three women who were missing for around a decade. The former school bus driver is also accused of raping them during a decade of captivity in his house in Cleveland, Ohio. It was the first time the 52-year-old had been seen in public since his arrest on Monday following the women's escape. His bail was set at $8 million. Castro's two brothers, Pedro, 54, and Onil, 50, were also arrested but were not charged after officers decided they had no knowledge of the abductions. They appeared in court on unrelated misdemeanor charges and were released.
