QUICK & CREEPY: The Murder of Junko Furuta

In our first QUICK & CREEPY, a shorter version of our episodes, Daniela details the infamous case of a young girl in Japan late 1980s. Strong trigger warnings for this one due to its graphic material, listener discretion advised.  Junko Furuta was seventeen when she was abducted on November 25, 1988. She was held for weeks and tortured in sickening ways eventually succumbing to her horrific injuries. Her main captors included Shinji Minato, Hiroshi Miyano, Jō Ogura, and Yasushi Watanabe, however, more men with ties to the Yakuza learned of Junko's captivity and would come and go as they pleased, abusing her until her final moments alive.
