I'd Hug Castro, Say 'God Bless You' The mother of Gina DeJesus, whom Ariel Castro allegedly abducted and kept as a sex slave in his Cleveland home for a decade, had a surprising answer when asked what she would say to Castro. I would hug him and I would say, 'God bless you.' I would say, 'God bless you,' and I'd hug him. I did not hate him. I forgave him years ago. I said it: I forgive whoever done it, just let her go," Nancy Ruiz told "20/20" anchor David Muir in an exclusive interview Thursday. Because you know what? Ruiz added. When you start to hate a person, that eats you up. I don't have time for that. I have to be, you know, I want to be happy, like I am now.

I wouldn't be able to look at him. I couldn't say anything to him. Shame on you? How could you do this? I don't even want to ask him those questions. I don't even want to look at him," Montes said in an exclusive interview Thursday. Montes described seeing Castro, 52, occasionally over the time he allegedly held the three women captive. "When I saw him, I loved him," she said. This is a man who I loved. This is a man who was a family member. This is a man who has his own family. He has kids, he has grandkids. Those are the ones who have to be suffering the greatest. I don't even know what to say to his kids. DeJesus, 23, was reunited with her family Wednesday after nearly 10 years spent as the alleged prisoner of Castro, a man her mother knew for years. For years after DeJesus' abduction, Castro, who grew up in the same community as Ruiz, would offer the family his support. As recently as last year, Castro asked Ruiz, "How are you doing?" never indicating he was allegedly keeping her daughter a captive just miles from where she lived. Castro was arraigned Thursday in an Ohio court on charges of kidnapping and rape. ABC News' Russell Goldman contributed to this report.
