She was kidnapped in 2002. The producers of "Dr. Phil" said Knight "described the horrible conditions in the house" and revealed her physical, mental and sexual abuse. The show producers said Knight talked about being "tied up like a fish" and spending weeks chained and tortured in Ariel Castro's basement.
Knight, Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus escaped May 6, 2013 when Berry pushed out a door and yelled for help. Their kidnapper, Ariel Castro, pleaded guilty and was sentenced to life in prison. He hanged himself Sept. 3, just weeks into his prison sentence.
