Did anyone hear the 911 call from Amanda? Did the 911 operator seem any good? He/she didn't seem to try to calm her or anything.

Even the video game forum my hubby and I frequent are going nuts over this! What amazing news!

How funny! I think you and I frequent the same forums!

Amanda's voice so scared and she sounds so young. So glad she's safe now.

Playing her call on Piers Morgan now....Amanda's voice is so small and she sounds so scared. God Bless her for being so courageous!

Oh! She is so terrified...when she told them to hurry because he might come back....made me tear up...poor baby...

I wouldn't read too much into that just yet. Let's wait and see. Gina's family is gigantic. Probably half of Cleveland's west side knows someone loosely related to Gina.

I wasn't trying to read anything into it. I was just pointing out how strange ( and sad for the family) that this guy has been in contact with them......friendly with them.....and the whole time has been holding their loved one.

I live about 40 miles from Cleveland. I remember clearly when they disappeared. I was 22 when Amanda went missing and a new mom whose biggest fear was something happening to her child. I watched as they searched, simply heartbroken. When Gina went missing it was doubly heartbreaking. I am completely awed that the found them! Overjoyed does not even come close to what I am feeling! Reports locally are saying that there were multiple children found in the home

Yes, she was helpful, kept telling Amanda the police were on their way.

I think what helped with Charles is that he has only lived there for a year, so he didn't really know the guy as well as his neighbors did. Maybe Amanda realized that someone new might help her and she seized the day.

I bet we find out that there were other chances to rescue but people chose to look the other way and do nothing.

Wonderful news! Their families must be overjoyed tonight.

I know they probably endured a lot of horror but I truly believe that where there is breath there is hope. Hope that they will now they have survived these horrible crimes committed against them they can heal and thrive in the future.

Can you imagine how their Moms, Dads and families feel right now? Gives me goosebumps to think about their joy.

Can anyone link the 911 call? I'd love to hear it.

Anyone notice Amanda Berry said she had been on the news in the 911 call? I wonder how much they've been able to watch TV.

I dont even know what to say...how absolutely incredible.

She is one Strong young woman! I can only believe she has just been waiting for the opportunity to get free and save them all.

If I ever get to Cleveland, a new experience has topped my bucket list:

Ribs and beer with Charles R.
Watch Indians play some baseball
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

:rockon:

Amazing.

Lots of interesting comments and replies to comments from NM.

Also an interesting comment and link from LM but I can't get the link to open.

I am still in awe. Charles is a hero!!

I bet they were locked away in part of the house and he FINALLY left and forgot to lock them in....I bet something like that happened.
