Gruesome crimes

Junko Furuta was a young woman who was born in Misato, in the Saitama prefecture of Japan. Her family consisted of a mother, father, an older brother and a younger brother. She attended high school at a school in Saitama while working part-time at a plastic molding Factory after school. She was saving up for a big graduation trip she was planning, she was all set up to start working at an electronic store after she graduated, she was fairly popular and well liked by her classmates. She had great grades and was hardly ever absent, she was active, attractive and attracted a lot of attention which made some people jealous. She didn't drink, didn't smoke and definitely never touched any drugs, this made her seem very lame in the eyes of the thugs around the school.

The Yakuza wannabes was one of the notorious boy groups in her school back then, one of the boys in this group whose name was Hiroshi Miano developed a bit of a crush on Junko and wanted to get physical with her. He proposed this and she refused, meanwhile Hiroshi was a pretty big bully and was feared by the students and usually nobody dared defy him, he couldn't believe that Junko actually had the gall to turn him down. Hiroshi did not take this well at all; he couldn't believe that anyone would ever reject him; he took it as a complete and total insult.

He got together with a few of his wannabe Yakuza buddies and they all hatched a plan to get revenge on Junko. They would get another one of their friends to attack junko and then Hiroshi would come to the rescue, after he won a bit of her trust they could take her wherever they wanted. On November 25th of 1988, Junko was riding her bike home from her part-time job when an unknown boy attacked her and knocked her off her bike, Hiroshi was conveniently across the street while the whole thing happened ,he came to Junko's Aid and scared off the random boy he then offered to escort her home everything seemed to be going as planned while junko didn't actually trust him it seemed better than the alternative of possibly being attacked again she didn't have any idea that Hiroshi harbored any sort of hatred towards her she wouldn't have imagined that he would be planning anything like this.

Hiroshi took Junko into an abandoned warehouse and revealed his Yakuza connections to her, he then took his time raping her over and over then he took her to a hotel. He called his friends Joe Ogura and Yasushi Watanabe and he and his three friends took turns assaulting her.

Unfortunately this was not their first time doing this as they had just recently done it to another girl in the past few weeks they decided that they were having far too much fun to just set her free again there was also the possibility that she would call the cops and tell them what happened and they couldn't have that. The next morning Hiroshi took Junko to a nearby park where Joe yasushi and a fourth boy nobuharu Minato were waiting they learned junko's address and used it to threaten her telling her that they would kill her entire family if she tried to get away, the four teenage boys then took her back to minato's parents home where they continued to assault her this is where for 42 more days she would be held prisoner.

On the third day that Junko was missing her parents were dealing with the police trying to get her found, knowing this would happen the captors made her call her parents and tell them that she had run away and was staying with a friend safe and sound. She was forced to ask her mom to stop the investigation, they held Junko captive in the bedroom forcing her to pose as one of the boy's girlfriends. It didn't take long for the parents to realize that this was a lie. The boys forced Junko into becoming their toy, they beat her relentlessly and raped her countless times a day often taking time, they were proud of what they were doing, regularly boasting to their friends that they had a woman trapped and ready for their personal use. They invited a load of their friends to come over and have their way with her, in the first few days at least 30 of them raped her and at least a hundred knew of her imprisonment even women were invited to come see the spectacle with a young girl even being invited to come over and see the prisoner who then took a pin and doodled on her face.

Junko had been already completely stripped of all of her Humanity, she was forced to be naked at all times and was constantly beaten and humiliated they would shove her into the freezer for hours when they were bored with her only pulling her out when they wanted to assault her again nobuharu minato's brother and parents were living in the same house that she was being held in. His brother did nothing aside from informing him that Junko might die at this rate, his parents were afraid to intervene as they had seen nobukaru's violent nature first hand they also knew of his association with the Yakuza and feared of their possible retaliation and most disgustingly they worried about losing their good reputation in the community.

After about 10 days of this torture, junko's body was already starting to fail her because of the ongoing endless beatings so much blood had accumulated in her sinuses that she could no longer breathe through her nose her digestive system was also beginning to refuse food and water, if she attempted to eat or drink anything she would instantly vomit, this also led to severe dehydration anytime she would vomit her attackers would get angry and beat her even further. When the nights got even colder she was forced to sleep on the balcony of the home in extreme cold temperatures sometimes near or below freezing eventually one of the men that the attackers would invite over to the house to see Junko would go on to tell someone else about her and the news finally got to the police about what was going on at the Minato house. Two officers were soon dispatched to go check things out, Minato's parents came to the door when the police explained the situation. The parents simply responded that there was no girl in the house the police believed, thanked them and left without ever bothering to check even a single detail.

Junko was rendered completely unable to walk, she had lighter fluid poured on her legs and set on fire leaving her with severe burns. Her legs had also been targeted so severely during the beatings that they were left with severe muscle damage; she was unable to grip anything with her hands anymore as they had been smashed with dumbbells to the point where her bones were crushed and her fingernails were shattered. Some nights later the attackers got more Rowdy than usual and ended up drinking too much, Junko took this as a chance to try to escape she crawled down the stairs from the bedroom and reached the phone downstairs she picked up the phone and began to call the police the phone rang and an officer picked up just as she was about to speak, Hiroshi came up behind her and grabbed the phone from her hands he put the receiver to his ear and said he dialed by mistake, hanging up the phone she was then pulled back into the bedroom. she was in complete Terror as she would obviously be severely punished for this and she was correct they punished her by holding her down and taunting her by waving a candle's flame all around her then they covered her entire body mainly her legs and lighter fluid and set her on fire. Afterwards she started convulsing, the boys told everyone that she was faking it and set her on fire once again only to put it out shortly after, somehow she survived from this point on she began begging her captors to just kill her and be done with it but they refused.

After being set on fire they discovered a new way to torture her, the boys would hold her head against the concrete while the others would jump on it. After about 30 days, Junko was no longer able to urinate properly, she had suffered severe damage to her genitals after they had been burned with cigarettes and lighters. She also had various foreign objects inserted into her even fireworks had been inserted into her, the fireworks were not limited to only one orifice as they were also inserted into her anus, mouth and ears as well she was left with eardrum damage so severe that she was nearly deaf at this point, her hands and feet were so damaged that she could hardly move at best she could crawl it took her over an hour to crawl to the bathroom.

A later report showed that her brain size was greatly reduced by this point in time due to her hellish appearance the boys no longer found her attractive. They use the same strategy again to abduct and gang rape another 19 year old girl she was on her way home from work. During these 44 days of hell Junko Furuda was forced to withstand the most unspeakable torture and suffering that a person can imagine, being raped many times every single day, day and night in all orifices. More than a hundred men are believed to have raped her by the end.

Sometimes she was raped by up to 12 different attackers in a single day, she was forced to be left naked most of the time, many of the men who raped her also urinated on her, she was forced to pleasure herself in front of the attackers for their entertainment, she was beaten physically every day she was beaten with golf clubs, iron rods, bamboo sticks and various other objects. She had dumbbells dropped all over her body and her head stomped against the ground face first, she had hot wax poured all over her face with a focus on her eyelids, her eyelids were also burned with cigarettes and cigarette lighters, she was violated with a long list of various objects shoved into all orifices including but not limited to bottles both broken and unbroken iron bars, scissors roasting needles, chicken skewers and more she was given only the strict bare minimum of food and water at times she was forced to eat cockroaches and drink urine, she had fireworks put into all of her orifices leaving damage and severe burns, she had her left nipple ripped off by a pair of pliers, she would be tied up flat on the floor and had dumbbells dropped all over her body, the drops on her abdomen were so hard that it caused her to lose all control of her bowels, she was hung from the ceiling and used as a punching bag, she was shoved into a freezer and kept there for hours at a time, her eyelids were burned with hot wax and lighters when she closed her eyes in fear, her breasts were stabbed with sewing needles, the needles often being left inside her genitals were burned with cigarettes and lighters, she had a hot lit light bulb inserted into her vagina and moved around until it shattered.

She looked like a completely different person after all of the damage it was hard to even make out her facial features her body was severely damaged and crippled and she smelled as if she were already rotting she was continuously heavily bleeding from her genitals from all of the abuse she wheezed heavily struggling to breathe from all of the blood accumulated in her sinuses. On day 40, January 1st Junko woke up to New Year's Day alone. She spent the day begging to be killed, completely unable to move. Three days later on the fateful day of the 4th of January the boys challenged Junko go to a game of Mahjong Solitaire and forced her to play, somehow even in her condition she won the game, this infuriated her captors who treated her to a severe beating with an iron barbell and then poured lighter fluid all over her arms her legs her stomach and finally her face dumping lighter fluid into her eyes then they put a candle to her face igniting it all she weakly attempted to put out the Flames but didn't have the strength to do so this final torture lasted for a grueling two hours altogether, already having been in a horrible condition Junko went into shock and finally died the following day.

Minato's brother called him within 24 hours to inform him that Junko had died. The boys all rushed over to the house in a panic fearing what would certainly be a life sentence or even a death sentence. The boys started to freak out but they came up with a plan the captors then put her body into a 55-gallon oil drum and filled it to the brim with concrete a small bit of junko's long hair was poking out the top of the concrete, something they apparently didn't notice they disposed of the barrel at a construction site in Koto Tokyo, there was originally a good chance that the police would never find out who did this there weren't any clues to go on, but luckily Hiroshi was caught while he was being questioned by the police two weeks later involving their recent gang rape of the unrelated 19 year old woman, he got confused and thought the police were talking about Junko as the cases were so similar and thinking that one of the other boys must have already confessed he spilled the beans, he realized his mistake but it was already too late and he told the police where they had hid the body. Joe ogura had already been arrested for another unrelated sexual assault case he was quickly also arrested for Junko's case as well as the other boys involved.

Few days later the drum was finally opened and the concrete was broken open revealing junko's long deceased body in a nightmare-inducing horrific condition. Junko's family was notified and told of what happened to her in detail, when her mother heard the details of what was done to her, she fainted and she ended up in a long-term stay in a psychiatric hospital. Autopsy was performed on junko revealing the true horror of what had happened to her. Small bottles were found still stuck in her rectal cavity and it was revealed that she was pregnant although the damage to her uterus was severe her face was so completely mutilated that she had to be identified by her fingerprints. Hiroshi Miano was 18 at the time, Joe ogura was also 18 at the time, Nobuharu Minato who was 16 at the time and Yasushi Watanabe who was 17. All four of these monsters were caught and sent to trial, during each trial it was pretty common for onlookers to pass out upon hearing the details of the case, during the trial, they didn't really show any semblance of remorse and despite all of this they received extremely light sentences for such horrific crimes. They were actually still being tried as juveniles but after much backlash they were changed to adult status, still after being upgraded to adult status they received unbelievably light sentences something that to this day continues to enrage people who hear about this case. The boys somehow were not charged with murder instead they received a charge called causing bodily injury resulting in death. In Japan the juvenile court system is far more focused on Rehabilitation rather than punishment.

Hiroshi was sentenced to 20 years in prison, Minato got a five to seven year sentence himself, Watanabe got nine years and Joe got an eight-year sentence. One sad thing is that these monsters actually received even lower sentences than that at first they were only increased to the still low amount after an appeal, it was so low that some people even questioned if their Yakuza ties were to blame for this

After Nobuharu Minato got out of jail he changed his first name to Shinji, he did this for obvious reasons. In 2006, he got married to a woman from Romania and had a daughter together; they soon divorced and the wife ended up with custody of the child. Minato couldn't stay away from murder for too long; he was eventually arrested again for the attempted murder of a businessman. The case is ongoing. Joe ogura was released in August of 1999, he also ended up changing his name to Joe kamisaku he actually had the goal to brag about his role in the kidnap and torture his father had vowed to give their entire life savings to junko's family out of shame but Joe ended up taking this money and using it for himself to live a fairly extravagant lifestyle. Joe's Mother wasn't much better as she actually vandalized junko's grave saying that it was junko who ruined her son's life Joe actually managed to find some women to date him he ended up marrying a Chinese woman but the marriage didn't last too long afterwards he started dating another woman he went back to prison in July 2004 for seven years for beating a guy he thought was luring his girlfriend away from him he had kidnapped and beaten the man for four hours he proudly told the victim that he had killed before and would do it again he was sentenced to four years in prison but in 2009 he was once again free and he is still free to this day.

The ringleader Hiroshi Miano went right back into his previous gang activity immediately after being released from prison; he was arrested for fraud at some point and was released shortly after. Yasushi Watanabe is the only one of the four boys who hasn't been arrested because of that it's not really known what he's been up to.
