by Timothy Charles Holmseth

Trapped in a nightmare they could not wake up from – three  young girls and a baby existed in a private hell located in the basement of an Ohio home.

Although the horrifying event shocked the conscience of the entire  nation – it is not the first time or the last.  The four survivors of Ariel Castro’s demented  world were not the first to descend into such an abyss.

The information was actually disseminated for publication by  Teresa Neves, HaLeigh’s maternal grandmother. Neves described what the young  boy said while jumping on a motel room bed on Father’s Day weekend, 2009.

Neves said the boy talked about an underground cellar HaLeigh  was kept in when people came to visit.

“[Ronald Cummings Jr.] called it an underground house. It  had cement for the top, and there was grass on top of that so nobody could see  it,” one source said.

“[Ronald Cummings Jr.] said when HaLeigh was down there she  had to eat peanut butter sandwiches,” she explained.

The little boy said HaLeigh was put in the cellar when  people come to the house so nobody sees her. He called it an underground house,”  she said.
