​@karolmongiello2725 Cases for sexual assault don't really get statistically counted or is not accurately counted. I'm not saying that there a country full of sexual assault cases at all, but they have undercounted the sexual assault and other crimes as well ( the country is still pretty safe even if you take all those in regard), then add on top of it that culturally the woman that are get assaulted are not going to the police because of shame, although that is getting better even if it's just a little bit

[@amypanddirtytoo1926]

I think it was a teenager. All that ice cream? Going online not for anything specific but just to f around for a bit? Randomly found some money but wasn't tearing the place apart for anything in particular? Didn't flush.......not on a criminal database, no DNA on file, fingerprints didn't match anyone. Cuz they didn't try to test kids. And only a kid would leave all that behind. An entire outfit with their DNA all over it, finger prints, their own blood also with their DNA all throughout it, literally everything needed to positively prove your identity. And a kid wouldn't arouse anyone's suspicion walking around on the street. Even if they were running and acting "strange". Cuz kids do that all the time.

[@ScarletImp]

Right, so theory time: As I understand it, DNA doesn't tell you literally where you're born. Just your genetic makeup. The killer is mixed-race, an Asian father and a white mother. The dirt in his pockets came from California, suggesting either (1) he and his family *were* American, or (2) he was visiting America. When you brought up the military base, and that he may have been a military brat, it would explain why he was never caught. My theory is that he and his family are American, and either his father or mother is part of the US military and was stationed there at the time. Killer may have been a skateboarding loud-mouth (as evidenced by Mikio being seen yelling at them) who got told off and decided Mikio and his family had to die for that. He sticks around for a few hours then returns home like nothing happens, ultimately moving away from Japan when the family gets re-assigned elsewhere.

[@kylemacintoshlinux1449]

Seems like the most likely theory to me. Also if his father is high ranking enough the base may be unable to say much about that family...

[@OcelotOmega]

@@MercuryAlphaInc Didn't they say that the sand was from the area around Edwards AFB (Air Force Base)? Edwards isn't near the ocean, and here a lot of bigger cities tend to have a skate park or two. While I don't think it's necessarily a tourist thing, either, I live in the California desert, and sand will get in any bags no matter what you do, so I think the theory of it being somehow related to the military holds the most water in regards to that particular evidence. Sorry if I somehow worded that wrong, just trying to put what info I can out there, as having lived here for almost 31 years. Sand has gotten into every single backpack I have ever owned, no matter how careful I was with it, and in the purse of every family member I've seen cleaning theirs out.

The most likely theory is the culprit was a relative of a foreign soldier,he fled back to his own country afterwards. I read an article before saying his DNA test shows one of his parents is Asian, and the other one has European ancestry (most likely his father)

[@ScarletImp]

That's what I'm thinking. An American military brat who was skateboarding in the area, got into an argument with Mikio, got pissed and decided the man and his family needed to die. He then leaves like nothing happens and eventually moves back home when the father is re-assigned.

[@rjmax3311]

Ether way the evidence they left suggests they didn't care if they were caught and maybe thought they were untouchable. I think it has to be someone that doesn't live in America though or a country that doesn't have extradition with Japan.

Probably his father. But is there a way to find out which country's soldier was living in that area. The culprit was probably a local in that area and so was his mother. I would assume the father had to have some physical presence there too. Which means the police could isolate any visitors or immigrants and get closer to identifying the fathers name and last name. That way they could Identify the culprit's last name as well. Since the father was a foreigner he would give his last name to his son right

[@TheMLGSnubs]

I feel like this wouldve been the child of a US military service member, someone who grew up there but spoke English fluently and has dual citizenship and therefore was able to escape the country relatively undetected. The killer probably didn't buy any of the clothes, they would've been purchased by their parents instead. If you commit a crime like this and you're able to get out of the country before getting on the police radar, you're safe - this killer is living America/Canada, in their mid late 30s early 40s and they're never getting caught.

[@facetubetwit1444]

@@jahovachite It also could be just someone without a criminal record that just so happened to have taken a holiday to California with said bum bag prior to the murders or someone from cali on holiday on japan. My first thought was jaded love of the wife or something like that but i feel they might have mention if it was a crime of passion. So now I'm thinking it could of been a opportunistic murders for what ever reason, I don't know what really makes killer's tick but one would think if this was a serial killer there would be more murders with very similar out comes.

[@gonkdroid6301]

[@jahovachite]

@@facetubetwit1444 although that's definitely a really good point, I think one of the more telling signs is that the sand was also found at the skatepark. That in particular and also being tied back to wearing bigger clothing, as well as the particularly brutal circumstance in which they were murdered leads me to believe that it wasn't a Japanese person otherwise there would be more killings like this. Also not to mention you have to be particularly strong to be able to break a knife in someone's head and then go kill two other people knowingly with a broken knife broken knife and only sustained a hand injury. That would be more telling of somebody who would have a larger stature and weight who can deliver more force behind each blow. Also the amount of tea that was drank even for a 2 to 10 hour period would still be pretty drastic that's a lot of fluid intake for one person. All these signs in particular lead my conclusion to be that it was a foreigner. Not even particularly an American as we said in the video, with somebody who simply has access and means to travel and would have committed the crime and fled do another place afterwards. Explaining why there weren't any more murders like this, because although the means of Entry seemed really premeditated. If you're used to more European style structuring you would see that as an opportunity to be able to jump into a house❤

[@Zer0_._]

I...... have a bit of a theory. This could have been done by a military person. Setagaya isn't that far from Yokota. It's an hour cab ride. Killer does his thing, hangs out, leaves in the morning, catches a cab, goes back to base, goes through the gate, goes back to the barracks, and then very soon after goes on deployment, probably with one of the ships from Yokosuka. It would also explain the sand from a beach in California, as well as the fanny pack. Which were the shit back in 2000.

[@Zer0_._]

Plus, the young-ish person, too. Most of the military is young. Most of them are 18-19 ish.

[@marcopolo-lv5uz]

only thing that bugs me is the use of the computer implies the culprit knew japanese. service members in 95-99% of cases do not stay in a host country long enough to learn the language, especially with japanese being an extremely difficult language to learn. im sure at the onset of the andrews afb discovery it would be trivial to make a list of who at yokota had previously been at andrews. and if my language theory is correct on being able to use the computer, american japanese speakers affiliated with the base who also had a connection to andrews would be a list of 5-15 people at most.

[@mac_cuts8928]

Yokota is an Airbase while Yokosuka is a Navy base. Not a lot of people who are stationed in the post of one branch but serve in another, then will get orders and leave from a different base in a nearby base from their branch.

[@naughtyhieroglyph669]

Yokouska is a bit of a train ride, it would take more than an hour, but also would explain having to wait in the morning because of the liberty, IF it was a service member, that could explain it. I do not know if the base dependents had that same rule, and i do not know if the airforce had those restrictions as well. I am leaning against it being a sailor, and either a dependent of the US military or Japanese military.

[@spookylittlebat]

Norman Bates was channeling his mother and doing what he imagined she would, after she died and his mind was in denial of this, so kept her alive by acting as her. Hannibal Lecter was forced to eat his little sister by these military dudes when he was a kid, tracked them down when he was older, and ate parts of them as poetic justice. He’d already crossed that line, it was normalised for him, and so that became his teaching rude people a lesson strategy. Whilst he appears quite sane, he’s thought to have CPTSD, with the cannibalism being his trauma response. I don’t know if I agree that it’s scarier to not understand what motivates these killers. I think it’s scarier to understand that any one of us could snap and become one of them one day. Our parents, our intimate partners, our kids, somebody you live right next to, somebody you work with, your doctor, your hairdresser… anybody. And you might not see the signs at all until it’s too late.

worst Japanese crime case is the murder of Junko Furuta IMO It's not even close either. I don't recommend looking into it.

[@snazzydrew]

But my curiosity demands I ruin my mood by looking into this exact thing. 😭

[@Jairjax]

@snazzydrew did you do it

[@snazzydrew]

@@Jairjax yep and I'm not sure if I should be mad at all the commentors repeating it or myself for not trusting it was some truly heinous, dark, and absolutely depressing evil... Like wtf I don't even want to hint at anything about the case because it's all so graphic and beyond tragic.... it's insane.

[@Jairjax]

@@snazzydrew The people you should be mad at are those individuals who committed the crimes. They live as free people today. Be mad at the perpetrators parents for not having the guts to call the police, because they were cowards. Finally, be mad at the judicial system and the individuals that allowed the crimes to go unpunished.

[@ncisfan1002]

Is this the Hello Kitty case? That name looks familiar Edit: Forgot that Hello Kitty case was in Hong Kong

[@witchtheer3450]

" i will always say that the scariest stuff is always what human beings do to each other" , yeah what a cruel world this has to be because the world is just math and it has to be balanced , it always has to be "0". :(

[@SaitoShepherd]

So long human civilization exist, every good and bad abhorrent stuff will exist alongside with it. And there's nothing can it do to stop it completely, so mitigation is the only way.

[@thatonebabywhale]

I love how everywhere in Japan there’s an animator/ graphic design artist for even the most serious of situations . The cute fox mascot for the flyer is insane .

[@chrilpy]

The Junko Furuta and Hello Kitty girl murders were way more evil

[@Oswaldo_Godoy]

you got her last name wrong its Furuta

[@GeforceFender]

It's not a competition. All murders are horrible 🙄

[@M0rshu64]

Both pale in comparison to Unit 731.

[@Chilling_Chilling]

For real especially regarding the Furuta Case. To the point the press actually LEAKED the names of the boys who did it despite Japan's *extreme privacy laws* but everyone saw it as a reasonable move. Spoilers: I live in Japan and those "boys" are out free now with completely new identities. Good thing I'm not a teenage girl, I suppose 😅

[@karolmongiello2725]

We're talking human lives here, we're not power scaling murder cases?

[@ArquaticDreamer1994]

The kawaii animal figure on the top right corner of some documents regarding the cold case at 7:21 really threw me off for a spin at the audacity of the situation but then again, I don’t know what else I expected from Japan. That place is crawling with cute anime shit everywhere no matter how grim the seedy underbelly of the countries history and society is as a whole. Like, just damn. Edit: sorry i meant left top corner I have severe dyspraxia and always get my left and right confused 2nd edit: sorry bottom left corner (again my horrible dyspraxia) 3rd edit: sorry I meant dyslexia but I also have dyspraxia (JFC)

[@ShotgunLlama]

Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?

[@GrievousReborn]

The thumbnail narrows it down more than the title I saw the notification on my phone which is just the title of the video by the way and I thought it was going to be about Unit 731 or the Nanjing Massacre

[@Tsukuyomuu]

11:39 I can't believe Shiro Emiya from Fate Stay Night murdered a family of 4 in the year 2000

[@ysonline]

This video was great and you should do a lot more like this. Reminded me of mrballen. Much better than your other content that's mostly about Internet drama.

[@ricojimenez3599]

This was neat a change from what you usually do

[@TheStickCollector]

Disorderly crime is worse than organized crime (although both are not ideal)

[@criminalcuteness3952]

I love scary story time with Uncle Muta

[@glennianheroes1383]

its weird how all the stuff the killer had was bought in the year of the crime, they probably had only arrived in the country that year, otherwise they would most likely at least have an older knife if not clothes i mean you dont bring the knife you just got a few months ago somewhere if youre going to get rid of it you bring a dingy one, same with clothes unless for some reason you only have new stuff, honestly makes me believe more that it was a kid brought along with their parents job, probably was a army kid transferred that year

[@Kolt461]

Muta are you making something close to the Gemini Home Entertainment again? That was such a nice video that I still watch time to time. Anyways nice video bro, keep em coming.

[@pranavp8709]

Hey, if you are doing some true crime stuff in the future, could you pls look at the noida double murder. imo, what could have been a pretty solvable case became a shitshow of a cold case only due to the sheer incompetence of the police force. It was so bad, that some of the events in relation to this case could be considered as borderline black humour, due to the sheer ridiculousness and stupidity with which the police conducted the investigation.

[@Hnter2200]

I like these types of your videos way more than the cesspit that is KZbinr drama, and crypto scams. You seem a lot more relaxed when talking about a subject you don’t hate.

[@GrandHoff]

My guess is it is likely the older child of a US Airforce officer who either a) knew he would return home or b) was sent back right away when this was found out and then covered up. Based on the sand, clothing sizes and style, dna haplotypes, and just how brazen the amount of evidence left over was. Military brats tend to not care when overseas. It could also be tied into the argument at the skatepark as skateboarding was very popular with American teens at the time.

[@tylerwest2666]

Love this kind of content from you. Great stuff!

[@justaemptymall]

I thought the Junko Furuta Case is scarier :0

[@Ironbattlemace]

Cold case. Everyone knows who killed Junko. They just got out with a slap on a wrist

[@BlueSlimett]

just keep doing this rabbitholes muta and ignore most of whatever is going cs itll only stress you out :D

[@CheezerTheGrate]

Surprisingly NOT Unit 731? WARNING SINCE PEOPLE DON’T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND.. THIS IS SARCASM

[@sankyu3950]

War crime and crime under the jurisdiction law is completely different either way im not a lawyer to debate

[@CheezerTheGrate]

@@sankyu3950 I mean… chemical warfare is a pretty huge crime-

[@sankyu3950]

Well reread my comment again, your opening a pandora box by including a nationwide crime and not a crime under the jurisdiction law

[@darkmatter9643]

It’s not really a cold case since we know who did it

[@mich2962]

@@sankyu3950 yeah. war crimes are always the most insane ones. And it's not something mutahar would cover.

[@BlackJoePesci]

Just had the best smoke sesh to this crazy video. Thank You Muta!

[@yatoheat]

Hey Mutahar

[@betong3449]

Have you ever wonder doing a series out of this Muta? Like make a video on Olof Palme, or any other famous cold case from around the world?

[@mastakoho]

7:22 Okay but what about that weird little police mascot being on the murder flyer

[@ths7478]

Woah this video is high quality content nojoke, loved it! Hope to see more like this

[@chrisk5985]

Saying a case from the 2000s is "one of the oldest cold cases ever" is wild and untrue lol

More videos like this Muta. To your mental health limits of course. This kind of content is extremely interesting.

Literally someone should literally count how many times he says "literally". Literally! LOL

[@culturebreath369]

Definitely open to you sharing more with us man! ❤🤙

[@HSGAutomotive]

Sounds like a Reacher storyline. Speaking of which those connections do make me think it was a US military cover up of one of their brats

Probably an American at the base there. Love this kind of content keep it going Muta!

Literally!

i always thought there was a big ol conspiracy. you can't have this much evidence and NOT be able to find the culprit. insane stuff man

[@Azrael79a]

I've honestly heard a lot worse... Like a lot worse. Like I was on the internet in 2004 and I've lived in Baltimore since 2009. This is pretty tame.

[@theKashConnoisseur]

It's only shocking in the sole country (to my knowledge) with a higher rate of self-icide than homicide.

[@orbis17]

hello guys and girls it me Murderahar again hahahahaha good video as usual mate

[@PredatoryQQmber]

American occupants even crashed entire helicopters on kindergardens in Okinawa and got away with it. I would easily believe that investigators got the trail to that airbase and was shunned away by their subservient higher-ups.

Murican soldiers are evil? Imagine my shock.

[@NickyBlue99]

B-B-B-BASED

[@lastninja94]

I lived in Japan for 13 years and I did not know or heard about this cold case before. It’s my first time hearing and it’s truly shocking and tragic murder case. I’m so surprised that they did not found the suspect yet while leaving many evidences behind the scene.

[@JoeBauers]

Muddahar--please try and reduce the number of times you say "actually." Its a clutter word and distracts from your excellent content. 🎉

[@collintatum1210]

I enjoy the true crime muda hope u do more in the future n yea i watch true crime alot n japan in general has some of the most messed up n creepiest cases ive heard of.
