Ohio suspect's brothers: People think we were involved

Two brothers of Ohio kidnapping suspect Ariel Castro said they fear people will always believe they were involved.

Pedro and Onil Castro were initially arrested as suspects, but investigators determined they had no knowledge of the abductions or that the women were being held captive.

Pedro Castro echoed his brothers comments, saying, "If I knew, I would have reported it - brother or no brother".
