The eldest of three women held captive in the Cleveland 'house of horrors' has told police how she had to give a fellow captive's newborn daughter CPR as their alleged abductor threatened to kill them.
Michelle Knight, now 32, says she saved the life of Amanda Berry's daughter after she was born by giving her the kiss of life.
The girl, named Jocelyn, was not breathing and Castro allegedly told her that if the baby died, he would kill her mother.

Castro also made sure Jocelyn - his daughter with Amanda - did not know the real names of DeJesus or Knight - because he didn't want the young girl to repeat their names in public.
Knight told investigators she fell pregnant five times, but lost the baby each time. She said she was starved and repeatedly punched in the stomach to force her to miscarry.
