Korean Version of “Junko Furuta” Case - 26 Days Of Torture, SA, Then Sealed In Concrete
[Music]. bada bing bada boom orchards are not fun. at night the Rosen Rosa fruit trees with. the twisty little branches and the green. leaves those are all pretty during the. day but at night everything is dark. everything is gray the rustling of the. leaves it no longer feels like a nice. sunny breezy day it sounds like somebody. is hiding behind a tree Watching You the. cute little twisty branches they're now. creating these Eerie Shadows on the. ground it feels like a maze from a. horror movie St standing in the middle.
of an orchard are a group of high. schoolers and young 20s something year. olds a few of them are 24 25 but a lot. of them are 14 15 years old they're. huddled in a circle and there's nobody. else in this Orchard but them which. makes sense because why would anyone. else be in an orchard at 3:00 in the. morning what was that is somebody here. Focus they have to focus right now is. not the time to get distracted nobody's. here why would anybody be here they need. to hurry if this is actually going to.
work right now they cannot get caught. that is the only rule that they agreed. upon before coming out here together. again a few of them they still need to. graduate high school one of them still. needs to graduate middle school if they. get caught tonight all of that it's over. they cannot fail what did Kim say Kim. said you just mix these two together and. it'll work out perfect he said it's the. perfect mixture there's no reason for it. not to work I mean it has to work right.
hurry just start pouring it in they kick. their shovels to the side and start. pouring in the mixture down into this. massive hole that they dug up in the. ground they have to hurry they're. starting to get hungry they pour the. sludgy gray cement mixture until it. covers what's buried first they. completely cover a hand five fingers. then it's connected to an arm and they. start pouring the concrete on the arm. then the Torso and then finally the face. the face of the 15-year-old girl that.
they held captive for over a month and. tortured when they're done they all. leave they head back to their cars with. their little shovels and honestly they. feel good because they freaking did it. they're going to get away with it that's. how they feel at least but don't they. know history always repeats itself and a. very very similar case took place 26. years ago in Japan the case of junko. Fuda the case of junko UDA is one of the.
most gruesome cases of sadistic torture. we've ever covered and it was all. committed by teenagers I think if you've. ever kept up with True Crime cases at. any point junko's case would have been. one that you've absolutely come across. and today we are covering the Korean. version of it this is the case that. everyone in Korea has been calling the. Korean junko case. [Music].

a lot if that is a lot for you today. please go take care of yourself and I. will see you in the next one many names. have also been changed for anonymity and. also because many identities have been. not released they've been protected by. the law a few statements have been. condensed for time and we had our. professional translators help us with. the Gathering of the facts of this case. but if there is anything at all that is. mistranslated miscommunicated or. anything we didn't include please let us. know down in the comments so with that. being said let's get started the best.
way to drink soju is on the floor I mean. there's just something about it that. usually hits better you get all of your. friends in a circle you get bottles of. SoJO which is hard liquor you get cup. Ramen snacks and you sit in this circle. on the floor playing drinking games I. think it's nice because you only do that. when you're younger and it's always this. memory in South Korea a mix of high. school girls and college aged boys yes. very alarming are sitting in the motel. room on the floor drinking Soju at first.
glance if you were to just peek inside. this room it looks like they're playing. drinking games and maybe that's why one. of the girls is more drunk than the. others typically in Korean drinking. games it is slightly unfair because if. you lose the first few rounds you have. to take a shot of Soju every time you. lose the game but if you're already. drinking Soju you're likely to lose the. next round of games so then you end up. drinking more rapidly than everybody. else so that results in some people. being way more drunk than the others but. usually everybody catches up by the end.
of the night that is not the case here. the energy in this motel room is not. normal The Group of Seven there's seven. of them they're joking around they're. having fun they're engaged and then one. of them the eighth one the very drunk. girl Yuna she's kind of sitting off to. the side crouched down with her hair in. her face it looks like she's being. forced to be there like she just wants. to go lay down but for some reason. they're not letting her or for some. reason she can't leave nobody is even.
engaging with her but every once in a. while they'll grab an empty cold noodle. bowl a nan Bowl fill it to the brim. these are Big bowls think of like a. pasta dish they'll fill it to the brim. with alcohol about two bottles of Soju. they put it on the floor right in front. of Yuna drink it she will have to bend. down and drink the entire Bowl they will. not let her stop to give you an idea. Soju typically has a alcohol by volume.
of 20% which is about half a vodka but. it's still strong enough that most. people will take shots of Soju it's not. like beer or wine where you just get. like a nice big glass of it and drink it. it's a spirit you take shots you mix it. with something else or you sip it really. really slowly you do not ever chug two. bottles of it that would be like getting. eight shots of vodka pouring it into a. single drinking glass and then chugging. it like a glass of water you're not. going to have a good time the minute. that the two bottles of Soju goes down.
yuna's throat and into her stomach it. comes right back up she throws it right. back up all over the floor the teenagers. around her are a mix of disgusted and. also kind of intrigued about what's. going to happen next cuz she's not. supposed to throw up I mean she probably. would throw up but she's not allowed to. throw up the guy sitting next to youa. smirks and for a moment it's quiet until. he grabs her by the back of the head. shoves her face into her own.
vomit eat it Yuna is the group's play. thing and just like junko Fuda she will. be held captive and tortured for a month. straight by teenagers her. age do you think history repeats itself. I feel like that's a big question people. like to ask and if it doesn't then how. does the same crime happened 26 years. apart from each other it's not even the. same in terms of oh it's both a case of.
kidnapping sadistic essay torture and. murder but the cases feel eerily similar. down to how the perpetrators are caught. how the victims try to escape how. they're lit on fire Everything feels. similar two girls two different. countries 26 years apart held captive. tortured in very creepy similar ways was. it inspired by the first it doesn't seem. like it so just evil repeats itself yes. wow because I imagine if it did it would.
have come about like oh this person was. obsessed with these types of dark cases. they had a Fascination for serial. killers you know how it always comes out. they had a journal where they wrote. Richard Ramirez heart nothing both cases. the case of junko Fuda in Japan in. 1988 and the case of Yuna in South Korea. in. 2014 both cases start with a kidnapping. from a helpful hand someone that they. believe is going to help them but there. is this saying better the devil you know.
than the devil you don't know Japan 1988. 17-year-old junko is rubbing her bruised. knee she's laying kind of awkwardly in a. ditch on the side of the road her bike. is practically on top of her at this. point it's 8:30 p.m. it's not the most. optimal time to get injured alone junko. looks up she's frustrated she was riding. her bike home from her part-time job. when this random 15-year-old boy comes. up to her out of nowhere completely. unprovoked and kicks the side of her.
bike she and her bike go flying off the. road into this ditch and now she's. rubbing her slightly bloody knees she's. dusting the dirt off her legs when this. figure walks up to her another boy maybe. a little older perhaps 18 he offers to. help her up that guy is famous around. here the one that kicked you he's a. pervert he once threatened me with a. knife you know come on let's get you up. I can escort you home if you'd like I'm. sure he's still somewhere around here. it's a split-second decision do you risk. being alone and vulnerable to the bik.
kicking pervert to come back and get you. or do you take the helping hand hoping. it's someone safer the possibility that. the two of them planned for this to. happen probably does not cross your mind. oh it was pre-planned pre-planned. they're friends as junko and the helping. hand are walking towards her house they. pass by one of those abandoned. warehouses and suddenly this guy's. attitude completely switches you know. I'm a Yakuza member right it's like the. mafia but in Japan this is our whole.
thing we kill you by faking an accident. we hit you with a car but I can forgive. you if you offer yourself to me he drags. junko into the abandoned warehouse and. essays her but when he's done he is. sitting next to her she's very panicked. and he tries to convince her actually. there's more the yuza still wants to. kill you but because you look kind of. like my girlfriend I feel a little bit. of sympathy for you I want to let you. live I can talk to my Superior and ask.
them not to kill you but you have to. stay with me for maybe the. weekend he leaves to call two of his. friends and he tells them I've captured. a woman do you guys want to eat. together that night him and his three. friends would take turns gang essaying. her and they would invite more friends. over and soon the torture would begin. they decide why let this girl go why why. let her go home when they can keep her. captive and make her their little person. play thing junko would be kidnapped by.
what was supposed to be a helping. hand South Korea. 2014 a guy named Kim is sitting at his. desk texting his girlfriend Yuna he's. comforting her Yuna is to put it nicely. she's going through it her home life. isn't the best her mom was an alcoholic. her parents are divorced she's living. alone with her dad but they were never. really that close to begin with so. they're always kind of a little awkward. the house is quiet youi could probably. benefit at this point point from some. stability but instead her dad picked up.
all their bags moved to a completely. different city where she has no friends. no connections and she doesn't even. speak that City's dialect which results. in her new high school friends bullying. her relentlessly another girl from the. school would say I mean some of the. bully girls didn't like you know because. she was quiet she kept to herself she. didn't try too hard to make friends she. also had a pretty face and I guess the. bullies did not like that she's like. what 15 16 she is. 15 she would text Kim her boyfriend I.
don't like school I don't like my dad I. Hate Everything Kim debates on how to. respond to something like that and he. settles with then just leave what are. you suggesting I run away right now I'm. not saying that I'm just saying you can. leave and get some fresh air which means. truly get some fresh air it's obvious. you're not going to feel better when. you're stuck at home with your. dad I guess that's true so then does. that mean you're going to stay with me. Kim hesitates again but before he starts. clicking away on his phone the text.
reads of course I have a car so I can. drive you around we can go grab some. yummy food have fun and just relax then. I can drop you back off at home I don't. know I feel like my dad's going to be. really worried well if you ever do just. call me your dad will understand if you. just tell him you're going to hang out. with friends I did all of that too when. I was your age Kim is 24 she's 15 I did. that too when I was your age you trust. me right youa responds of course I trust. you thank you I always feel better when. we talk Kim responds good I'm glad I can.
help H I can't wait to meet you in. person what about. tomorrow they haven't met or they have. never met they met online it's. 2014 oh Kim is anxious because what if. Yuna doesn't want to meet with him or. she's not ready for a serious. relationship maybe he's coming on too. strong maybe it's too quick he's tapping. his feet anxiously waiting for a. response and it finally comes in yeah. see you tomorrow Kim turns to his side.
where a guy friend of his is standing. nodding his head [ __ ] yeah they high. five then they turn around to the two. girls sitting on the bed I told you he. could get her to meet the girls Giggle. and now the only question is how much do. you think Yuna is going to go for yuna's. boyfriend Kim helps her with her little. suitcase gives her a helping hand up the. steps she's glancing around like this is. where you live they're walking into a. very shady looking motel and a rough. neighborhood which she's not trying to.
judge but it's just I guess it's just. not what she expected When You're 15 you. think a 24-year-old is a full-grown. adult and they have their own house in. this economy that's not true but you get. it and he reassures her it's just. temporary he swipes his card on the door. and lets her in first once she steps. into the motel room Yuna likely has a. gut feeling to youturn it right out of. there and go back home the motel room is. filled with people in One Singular motel. room there are now seven plus Kim plus.
Yuna there's nine people he never. mentioned having a roommate or that. there was going to be other people. around them I mean not that anything is. wrong with that but again it's just. nothing what she was expecting there's. three guys in their 20s 24 and 25 years. old and a few girls that are her age 14. and 15 years old a whole group of seven. people in this motel room what is going. on Kim turns to her and explains they're. kind of like us we call ourselves The. Runaway family we're all just helping. each other out while we can yaa.
expresses maybe this isn't the best idea. maybe I could just go home and I'll be. back and it'll be great when I get back. and maybe now's not the time but they. block her from leaving the girls her age. start pleading with her come on it'll be. fun you can just stay here for a few. days just kill time and then go home you. know if you go home now your dad is. going to freak out that you ran away and. he's probably going to beat you up and. shave your head cuz that is a very. threat in Korean households that they're.
going to shave your. head whoa It's typically reserved for. daughters cuz I guess they think that. you're having too much fun getting. attention and going outside so they. threaten to shave your head I think it's. toxic I don't think it's normal or okay. but I don't know how many people. actually follow through with it but if. you go home in a week he's going to have. missed you so much he would have been so. worried and so stressed he's not even. going to be mad that's how it always is. it always works for us trust us do you. want to get your head shaved and lose. your phone or do you want to go home the.
king of the. house it was a question but it didn't. really feel like a question it didn't. really feel like a choice so Yuna ends. up staying with the runaway family and. they were right just like they said they. would be of course they were 2 weeks. later Yuna is standing in front of her. home door it's open I mean she has no. idea how her dad is going to react after. seeing her for the first time in 2 weeks. since she ran away instead of being. upset her dad slams into her hugging her.
so tight that she can't even breathe. he's so happy to see her that he doesn't. even notice that yit is fidgeting she's. barely making eye contact with him she's. even hesitating to step inside their. apartment it's not until they get inside. he realizes oh something is weird. something is off about my daughter he. would later State you know those stories. where they say like if a clone replace. your loved one that's what I think he. was trying to say the feeling was how. would you know this looks like Yuna.
talks like Yuna remembers the same thing. as Yuna does but this doesn't feel like. his daughter it feels like something. happened and made her a different person. she's sitting on the living room couch. barely moving as if she wants to keep. her body as small as possible touch the. least amount of couch surface area as. possible and the smell the smell hid him. before he even opened the front door but. it's even stronger now that she's inside. I mean not that he cares about the smell. as long as his daughter is home but it's. such a it's such a strong cigarette. smell of course she's been gone for two.
weeks he's not expecting her to smell. great but even if Yuna had spent two. full weeks every second every day every. night inside of a club a hookah bar. surrounded by Chain Smokers he doubts. she would smell this bad her dad stated. it was so bad that he even later washed. her clothes multiple times and it was. embedded in the fabric the scent would. not leave but most alarming is yuna's. eyes were very unfocused like she's in a. days she is sitting on the couch staring. at the wall as if she can see through.
the wall like she's hypnotized it seems. like she's disassociating and he walks. up to her and he tries not to scare her. and he asks what happened to you during. the 2 weeks it's okay you can tell me. what. happened when a child goes missing all. the parents typically care about is. getting them home safely maybe the first. few hours they're missing there's. confusion there's anger they suspect the. kids are out late so that they can hang. out with all the bad friends that you do. not appre of but when they still don't.
come home at the end of the night I. think all of those feelings are just. replaced by sheer panic and concern it. doesn't matter why they're gone where. they went to who they're hanging out. with what they're smoking none of it. matters as long as they come home Japan. 1988 junko has the phone up to her ear. part of her just wants to scream into. the phone please help me these kids are. holding me captive and they've been gang. essaying me 12 times a day they're using. objects to essay and burn my areas with. a lighter she just wants to scream that. and see what happens. another part of her is replaying the.
Cap's words over and over in her head. which is along the lines of you see that. that car over there Yakuza we know your. home address if you don't do as we say. I'm going to kill you and that car over. there is going to drive directly to your. parents house and kill them is that what. you want junko waits for the phone to. stop ringing and she hears her family on. the other line jinko I'm running away. I'm not in danger call off the police. search and tell them I'm okay I'm going. to stay with a friend I don't want the.
police looking for. me junko's parents are confused and they. don't believe her because it doesn't. make sense she's never been like this. this is the daughter that rarely misses. school and the night that she ran away. from home she had been talking about. that night for weeks it was the night. that she would come home from her. part-time job she was going to watch the. finale of her favorite TV show she told. her brothers don't you dare even touch. the TV that night because it's mine. additionally it was Juno's mom's. birthday the night that junko. disappeared she had already been in the.
process of buying supplies to bake her. mom a strawberry cake and then suddenly. out of nowhere with no event no fight. she just runs away it just doesn't make. sense junko hangs up but she would call. again a few more times over the next 5. days begging her parents to stop looking. for her junko's parents would never stop. looking for their daughter but the. police were no longer as concerned it. hardly seems like an emergency situation. anymore anymore I mean junko reached out.
to the parents she said she ran off the. police reassured the parents were still. actively investigating just sit tight. but she's no longer their top priority. anymore junko's kidnappers plans are. working before we opened our grandpa. mango business I heard so many people. talk about how hard it is to open up an. online store and don't get me wrong it's. very hard but the parts that they were. focusing on were you have to make a.

reassure her dad it's nothing seriously. I was just hanging out with my friends. you were being dramatic you didn't need. to call the police he does not believe. her for a single second and he's. determined he's going to figure it out. he's going to find out what the hell. happened in those 2 weeks it is very. rare for someone to do something for 12. hours a day if you were to work 12 hours. a day for 7 Days you'd be working 84. hours a week double the average work. week and then some most people don't.
even sleep 12 hours a day truly it's. very hard for someone to do one activity. for 12 hours per day I imagine it can't. be enjoyable in any sense 12 hours a day. though is just how long both girls junko. and Yuna are essayed during their. captivity 12 hours every single day for. over a month Japan 1988 junko is not. allowed to wear clothes the first few. days junko is taken into captivity she.
was held hostage and gang essayed by the. four main perpetrators there's four. teenagers that are mainly responsible. for this the bicycle boy and his. friends but soon she would hear them. calling their friends over and they. would tell their friends and their. friends and this is a paraphrase but. along the lines of they'd be on the. phone saying we have a free woman. trapped inside ready to be. used every single day from then on 12. times a day 12 to 18 hours a day junko. would be essayed eventually the captors.
and their friends would get bored of. quote just assaulting junko the fun was. more so in the power and the torture and. the. humiliation they would force junko to. lay there while they all took turns. urinating on her sometimes they would. play Loud disco music and force her to. quote dance for them while touching her. privates they would make fun of her it. was estimated that Juna was essayed by. at least a hundred different men during. her 44 days in.
captivity the sexual torture would only. escalate in the next few weeks it's. almost like her captors and the other. friends who would be invited over were. playing this game of who can be more. sick who can be more Twisted within a. few weeks they start essaying junco with. other objects they initially start with. random objects that they could find to. get their hands on but eventually they. start intentionally looking for objects. that would cause the most damage they. begin to torture junko by inserting. sharp scissors metal rods metal skewers.
that you use to grill meat on glass. beverage bottles into her private parts. to essay her at one point they placed a. hot light bulb into her private region. and roughly moved it around until it. shattered inside of her Juna would be. essayed so regularly and so brutally. that her internal organs were quote. mangled by the end of the 44 Days by the. end of the 6 weeks of Hell South Korea. 2014 Yuna had come home after 2 weeks.
and she was finally ready to tell her. dad everything that happened do you know. a chat room called sex meeting well yaa. had a listing on there and it reads. hourly rate of. $150 no perverts allowed condoms are. mandatory no young people people should. be 30 or older yaa is 15 and every. single day she would be forced into. meeting up with at least eight clients. every every day for 10 to 12 hours a day. she was essentially essayed and sex.
trafficked eight times a day Yi explains. to her dad how she was sex trafficked. forced into sex work by who she thought. was going to be her boyfriend Kim and. his friends at this random motel room. they call themselves The Runaway family. and it all happened so quickly by the. time she realized what was going on it. was too late it started with a favor. Unice sitting in the motel room and the. whole group is crowding around her. they're all staring at her starting to. stress her out it's just 1 hour. yaa is clearly uncomfortable it's not.
that hard just go and talk to some old. aishes some old men inflate their egos. spend time with them quality time and. that's it and you get. paid yaa doesn't say anything because it. doesn't really feel right but they tell. her that Helen the girl that usually. does this she's sick so she can't go do. you want her to get more sick from. exhausting her body besides you can get. money for that hour doesn't everybody. want money doesn't everybody need money. Kim tells her that he never likes to ask. for any favors and he really would never.
unless it was absolutely important. besides they'd all be in the same Motel. waiting in the car in the front when she. gets out so they can all go out to eat. afterwards that's what yauna thought it. would be talking to some old middle-aged. men providing emotional Comfort 1 hour. that's it but instead it would be the. start of a Nightmare 2 weeks of being. forced into sex trafficking and tortured. by her clients and The Runaway family. they would tell her I don't know if you.
understand but the situation has changed. things are different now Kim your. boyfriend is gone Kim. leaves he was never really your. boyfriend youa he's gone and he's left. you with us you're ours now AKA she is. now going to be sex trafficked and every. penny she makes will go straight to them. wait so Kim is no longer in the picture. at all no he leaves side note you know. was making about $11,000 a day and the. group would blow it all on food and.
drinks and they tell her you're going to. do whatever we say if you want to stay. alive when yun's Dad hears this he is. ready to go straight to the police but. yunas starts freaking out basically. grabbing his arm so that he can't walk. out of the room you cannot like you just. can't what do you mean I can't I'm going. to yaa starts panicking you can't tell. them because they told me the whole. world is going to find out that I'm a. sex worker and they're just going to say. that I chose to do this and I'm just a. [ __ ] and a [ __ ] everyone will know and. my life is going to be ruined which if.
that's the case then why would the. runaway family let youa go why would. they let go of their only source of. income their quote product as they say. there were Whispers around town that. youo was gone that she vanished her dad. was looking for her everywhere this is. when she's missing for 2 weeks most. people at yuna's all girl high school. they knew that something obviously. happened to yaa it's the first year of. high school only one of the most. important years of your entire life in. South Korea and it sounds like a joke it.
sounds like I'm exaggerating but I'm. very serious it is one of the four years. that will determine where you go to. college and for the general public that. is going to determine your socioeconomic. status for the rest of your life nobody. just transfers out the first week of. high school something must have happened. to her the most popular theory was that. she ran off with the new boyfriend which. isn't inaccurate per se but everybody. knew that yo was dating someone they. could see it she went from being this. very quiet girl the first two days and. then literally in the span of a few days.
she starts smiling she's skipping to. class smiling at her phone non-stop. every class break she's on her phone. that can only mean one thing she's. dating someone but I don't think that. any of that really mattered to yuna's. Dad he just wanted to find her get her. home and in order to do that he filed a. police report since yuna's captors are. 14 15 24 25 they are all part of the. same Circle some of them go to the same. Middle School same High School in that. area and they have connections to.
everybody in that school and they find. out through the gra find that y's dad is. desperately searching for his daughter. getting police involved The Runaway. family start freaking out if they do. nothing the police will eventually track. them down and they will have to explain. why they kept a girl hostage in a motel. room sex trafficking her they think of. maybe they can tell the police that she. was just a poor runaway girl and they. were trying to help her but that's not. going to work the best case scenario is. the police do not get involved at all. with the group so how do they do that.
they turn to Yuna if you promise us. something we'll let you go home they let. her go home if she promises not to tell. anybody what happened or who she met up. with when she ran away and that is why. after 2 weeks of being held captive they. let Yuna go their plan was yauna will. not say a single thing and none of them. will be in trouble and maybe their plan. would have worked better had they just. made youa call her dad just like 26. years ago in Japan when junko was forced.
to call her parents but they sent her. home and right when yuna's Dad saw her. face he knew immediately something was. very very wrong when it comes to holding. someone captive usually there's one rule. don't let them go I mean it's like the. most standard of all the rules now. enforcing all of that it's a whole. different story South Korea 2014 it's. not exactly what yaa wanted to do right. when she gets home but her dad wants her. to go to church it's the best place for. her to be right now I yuna's been back.
she's constantly anxious she's looking. over her shoulder she told her dad I. think somebody's watching me he. convinces her that there's nowhere safer. than church he already told the pastor. what happened he's filled in he's going. to watch over youa to make sure nobody. bothers her or even tries to talk to her. about what she's been going through. she's going to be protected but even. then the pastor is not going to be able. to stop people from staring at her. everything The Runaway family told you. know would happen was happening everyone. in school found out about what happened.
to Yuna once her dad told the police. there were group chats dedicated to. talking about how Yuna the newly. transferred girl was caught doing sex. work after running away from home for 2. weeks some of the students feel sorry. for her other students feel like well. then she shouldn't have run away in the. first place which is I mean you get it. regardless of what people thought about. you's situation whether they felt. sympathy or pity or just oh that's what. she gets all these weird feelings The. Runaway family were right everybody knew.
what happened to her and her dad had. reported it to the police everyone knew. including the runaway family church. sermons are usually split into groups. the adult service the youth service the. junior service some Churches even have. sermons for the daycare group Yuna and. her dad would be split up during their. sermons but he promises her the second. that his sermon is out he's going to be. right by her side again but when he gets. out he would later state that he sees. the youth pastor on the phone outside. and he's confused used what is this man. doing isn't he supposed to be watching.
over my daughter yuna's dad searches. every single room every single bathroom. in that church Yuna is gone and he won't. see her alive ever again The Runaway. family had come to take her back. kidnapped her from church if you were to. simplify the concept of keeping control. over captives it would boil off into two. types of control physical control and. psychological control the physical. control are restraints locked rooms.
constant surveillance just ripping them. of any shred of autonomy or freedom of. movement and then the psychological. control and in a lot of cases that just. comes down to humiliation Japan. 1988 Juno could not run from her captors. literally she could not run they cut her. Achilles tendon and lit her ankles on. fire you know that part right above the. back of your ankle where you flex your. toes up and it's slightly bony part that. sticks out from the back junko's captors.
cut that part they cut the tendon in. there and they lit her ankles on fire. they did this due in part for the. torture aspect it's known to be. unbearably painful when your Achilles. tendon is ripped or shredded or even. just torn it's a very painful injury on. the body but also once you cut or damage. your Achilles tendon the likelihood that. you can run let alone walk almost none. initially a lot of the control that. junko's captors had on her was physical.
they locked her up in one of their rooms. would not let her leave always had. someone watching her tied her up with. tape but eventually they would start. beating her every single day with golf. clubs those long bamboo sticks iron rods. she was so badly injured that for her to. even crawl to the restroom to drag. herself to the toilet took her an. hour there was no way that she was. physically going to get away but there. is a very strong psychological aspect to. captivity as well they made sure that. she knew that she had zero control over.
her life they had the ultimate power and. that came through some really perverse. methods of humiliation they would force. junko into the freezer a giant. Standalone freezer they would throw her. body in there clu it and just leave her. in there for hours they would throw her. outside on the balcony to sleep in the. middle of the night where temperatures. can get as low as 23° F if she's lucky. sometimes it can go down to -3° F which. by that Point Juno likely isn't even. going to think about escaping she's not.
focusing on that she's focusing on. getting out of the freezer she's. focusing on getting off the balcony. that's where her attention and energy. are inevitably going to be most experts. say that psychological control is more. restraining than the actual physical. restraints in junko's case her captors. fed her mainly a diet of live. cockroaches centipedes and her intake of. liquids were mainly her captor urine and. feces as well as biological.
fluids later during her autopsy coroners. would find what they described as a. translated but quote Unthinkable amount. of semen so much so that they did not. believe it was possible for her to even. be able to digest it without severe. issues once tested it was discovered. later that some of the biological fluids. belong to animal life animal seen some. nzen suspect Beast some nzen suspect. they were getting it.
somehow wow South Korea 2014 26 years. later humiliation was also the focus in. yuna's case the runaway family her. captors once they kidnap her from church. bring her back that's where a lot of the. abuse starts escalating they start using. her as a personal punching bag they. would take degrading photos of her body. post them onto texting apps they would. force her to connect with creepy old men. online that wanted to pay for intimate. relations and do really disgusting.
actions in bed with a 15-year-old even. after being kidnapped from church youo. would be sex trafficked four to eight. separate times per day and these. sessions would last. hours and when she wasn't being. essentially essayed they would grab her. by the hair throw her onto the ground. and they would scream at her The Runaway. family kept telling yaa that they were. really upset that she told her dad what. happened they called her selfish they. said you only think about about yourself. we let you stay at our place we fed you.
and this is what you do and for that. they claimed that she deserved to be. punished while the runaway family would. Lounge on the bed or the little sofa in. the motel room to watch TV drink and eat. good food youo was mainly crawled up on. the floor in a fetal position when she. wasn't being sex trafficked sometimes. one of the younger girls would turn. around just to pick on her if you don't. stop staring I'm going to scoop out your. eyeballs youo would be forced to drink. ungodly amounts of alcohol for the. group's entertainment she would be.
forced to eat her own vomit she would be. physically assaulted and beaten every. single night they would host fight clubs. where they would taunt Yuna we'll let. you go as long as you can fight every. single one of us and win most of the. time when they proposed such a game. yauna was not in a state where she could. even fight whether she was too injured. or too drunk or both and God forbid she. actually did harm one of them it's. likely that they would hold her down and. assault her together they would grab. objects to throw at Yuna and when they.
didn't feel like that was enough the. group would throw literal chairs and. desks just full pieces of furniture at. yuna's body they would grab her by the. Hair Force her face all the way back so. that her her neck is extended forward. like this where you're I guess if you. were to have an Adams Apple it'd be. poking out right and they would. essentially karate chop her neck the. soft spots of her neck using the edge of. their hand they would beat her with. steel bug spray canisters they would. spray bug spray all over her and she was.
starved in both cases the girls were. starving they were both dehydrated and. even if they were given food it is. likely that once the physical abuse. escalated they would not be able to keep. any of it down because they had such. extensive injuries they would throw it. all right back. up I think the most confusing part about. both cases is how nobody did anything. for the month or in junko's case 44 days. that the girls are held captive it's not. like both of them are secretly held.
captive in some sort of isolated dungeon. they're both being held hostage in plain. sight and nobody did anything about it. Japan. 1988 over 100 people knew that Juna was. being held captive and tortured because. she was essayed by at least a hundred. different people but there were others. too others who did not partake in the. essay but they saw her and nobody did. anything well I'm sure they're all. telling other people too like yeah you. know in that age you must be telling all. your friends and your groups so you.
could probably safely estimate hundreds. of people yeah some of them would later. say well we were too scared because the. captor had ties to the Yakuza so one of. the four main high schoolers that. kidnapped junko apparently his uncle has. ties to the Yakuza which side note like. I said the Yakuza is like the mafia of. Japan they are a very scary group but I. digress that means every single day that. there were new people several people at. a time finding out about what was happen. happening to junko and they did nothing. but you would think that one of the few.
people who aren't scared to say. something would be the parents of the. guy who's holding junko captive because. junko is held captive in Shinji minato's. house upstairs in his room where he. lives with his parents and his brother. so the whole family knows yeah at first. Shinji lied to his parents stating that. junko is his girlfriend but eventually. everybody just drops the act because. it's so obvious that jungo is not his. girlfriend she's screaming for help and. begging for mercy on a daily basis every. part of her body is broken she is a.
shell of a human there is no way she's. just a girlfriend who's willingly. staying upstairs shinji's parents knew. that some sources state that shinji's. Mom tried to help at one point tried to. help junko Escape but the attempt was. unsuccessful and she was beaten for a. few hours by her 16-year-old son Shinji. I don't feel bad for her because since. that night it is stated that she. pretended that junko had gone home she. just stopped going upstairs she didn't. want to get beaten by her own son she. didn't want the neighbors to know what.
their son was up to she didn't want. their good family name to be ruined so. she just lived in her fake dulu land. where she told herself the screens are. just the walls creaking and junko has. gone home so nobody was helping junko at. one point there was a young girl around. junko's age that came over and saw junko. and instead of doing something about it. I mean I I don't know if I would expect. her to do something about it right then. and there but maybe go home once you're. safe and tell your parents tell. everybody the girl takes a pen and.
starts doodling a beard on junko's face. doodling a beard yeah like taking a. Sharpie and doodling a beard South Korea. 2014 it's hard to estimate just how many. people knew what was going on with Yuna. but it can't be nobody it can't just be. the runaway family I mean they're. jumping from motel to motel they have to. check in with the motel staff use the. elevators run into other people in the. hallways outside they have to move yaa. because near the end she wasn't even. able to walk on her own her whole body.
was filled with cuts bruises and puss. nobody said a single thing even without. y's extensive injuries you would hope. that some Motel staff would say. something after seeing a bunch of. 20-some year old men checking in with. girls that are clearly 14 but nothing. The Runaway family are basically running. a child trafficking ring out in the open. I believe they jumped even from multiple. different cities and nobody said a. single thing. but fine if the perpetrators their.
friends and even the motel staff do. nothing at least the police are going to. do something considering both girls have. been reported missing by their parents. it's not like nobody's looking for these. girls Japan 1988 the police receive a. very strange phone call a college boy. had called to tell them that his younger. brother had witnessed a crime his. younger brother came home overly excited. but also panicked and stressed out and. he starts rambling about he just saw at. his friend's house there's this girl. that's like a circus animal she's is. tied up being essayed over and over and. all sorts of strangers are like coming.
and peeing on her and they're sticking. light bulbs and bugs inside of her she. has zero autonomy and their torture. they're hanging her up from the ceiling. and using her like a punching bag. beating her like a. piñata this is by far the strangest call. that the police have received all day. they immediately dispatch two officers. to the house in question they knock on. the matato house shinji's parents come. to the door Shinji Minato what's going. on the police explained the bizarre. situation of the human punching bag. forced to eat cockroaches it sounds.
crazy oh I'm sorry there is no girl in. the house just our two sons you're sure. you're more than welcome to check but. we've never heard of a. Juno doesn't ring a bell the police. pause they look upstairs towards the. second floor it's a small house I mean. there's no way that a girl is in here. experiencing this level of trauma and. torture and abuse and the parents don't. hear a single thing there's no way so. they brush it off they thank shinji's. parents for their Cooper operation and. have a nice day it doesn't matter to.
them that there is an active missing. person's case for a high schooler in the. same area named junko South Korea 2014. when Yuna goes missing the second time. when she disappears from church the. police do not consider Yuna a high. priority missing person's case honestly. just like junko's case they're just lazy. they kept trying to bounce yuna's Dad. off to other police officers ah it's not. my jurisdiction it's not our jur you got. to call these people to show you how. lazy they were you went missing from. church where there are lots of CCTV.
cameras at this church if they just. played through the footage they would. see that yaa did not walk out on her own. she was effectively dragged out by these. two girls her body language is screaming. that something's not right here she does. not want to leave but by the time that. the police actually check the footage it. is too late for Yuna she would be dead. so if nobody not even the police are. doing their jobs to look for them the. girls would end up trying to save. themselves Japan 198 88 junko's captors. are drunk she can hear them they went.
from being belligerent well which isn't. really different from when they're sober. but they're starting to snore this would. be her only chance all of them are drunk. they didn't tie her up they knew that. she was so badly injured that there's no. way she can get to a phone the only. working phone happened to be on the. first floor all the way downstairs she's. they didn't think she was going to get. there so junko starts crawling all the. way downstairs it takes her a very long. time considering her injuries and she. finally makes it all the way down.
reaches for the phone dials Emergency. Services the phone finally picks up what. is your emergency but right at that. moment she feels a hand closing over her. mouth she turns to her side and one of. the captors is there with his finger up. to his mouth shh he grabs the phone. sorry my sister just Mis dialed by. accident he hangs up and drags her all. the way back up she had just been caught. South Kore 2014 Yuna knew it was her. only chance the motel staff are clearly.
not doing anything and the police. weren't coming to save her anytime soon. the only phones that were in the room in. the motel room were in everybody's. pockets and they had disconnected the. motel landline but one of them had left. the laptop open and unlocked on the desk. and everybody else had fallen asleep she. could sign into her Facebook and send. out her location get help it would just. take a few quick clicks that's it she. quietly drags herself over to the. computer glancing around the room she. gets up and starts clicking on the keys.
so slowly that it doesn't even make a. noise she likely is frustrated how long. her email and password is for security. reasons but she's sitting there Key by. key slowly entering it in and then. finally she logs on she uses the little. trackpad to hover over and then someone. grabs her hair and slams her head back. and there is a hand gripping her throat. she had just been caught. so she only locked out and didn't say. anything yeah both girls would have to.
pay for trying to escape Japan. 1988 candle wax was how the captors. decided to punish junko they tied her. down and started running a candle up and. down her body burning her dripping. candle wax in the most painful places. they would hold her down and drip the. candle wax onto her very thin eyelids. and even into her eyes they would drip. it into her private regions and all the. areas where she had exposed flesh and. wounds exposed meaning not just a scrape.
where the skin had been scraped off but. muscles are showing. likely a lot of jeno's torture focused. on her legs whether it was so that she. couldn't run or if it was because they. like to torture her private regions the. most and her legs happened to be nearby. she had such severe muscle damage that. she could not even move her legs they. start dripping the candle wax onto her. legs but that's not doing it for them so. they grab lighter fluid douse her legs.
with them and light her legs on. fire that way she could not even try to. crawl they held her down by her arms and. legs tighter up in a starfish shape on. the ground they grab. dumbbells they would stand over her and. hold the dumbbells out about shoulder. height and drop them onto her body. smashing her. bones junko's hands every finger bone. every handbone was smashed to Pieces not.
broken but smashed her fingernails had. shattered into little pieces and she was. no longer even able to grip anything let. alone a phone they hung her from the. ceiling and used her as a punching bag. they held her head down against concrete. and they would take turns using all. their strength to jump as high as. possible and land on her. head her face was so swollen and smashed. you could not tell where her eyes were. anymore junko was completely broken and.
fractured in every way. possible but she was still alive still. alive yeah South Korea 2014 26 years. later yo was held down while one of the. main captors Lee a 25-year-old man would. grab an electric fan in the older motels. they have these older fans where the. blades are more metal and they're. exposed. so it's actually a bit more powerful but. it's not like your little plastic fans.
where you can stick your finger in and. it stops the blades from running it's. pretty sharp like back in the days the. fans are metal yeah yes and they would. hold her down and they would run the. blades and have it smash into her ribs. over and over in the same spot many of. the sources that I found stated that she. had either cracked or fractured ribs at. this point from the metal Blades of the. fan and in that state where her ribs are. fractured which is an injury that people. say even it just hurts to even breathe.
it is such a sharp pain that is so. severe and deep inside of you and so. constant that you don't even want to. move an inch let alone breathe you want. to Exhale air as slowly as possible one. nzen said I fractured a rib once. anything other than a small breath felt. like a knife to the side rolling over in. bed knife to the side bending down to. tie your shoes two knives to the side. reaching to get something knife to the. side people with fractured ribs say they. were terrified of sneezing because of. the pain it was going to cause but the.
runaway family would force Yuna to do. 100 squats with fractured ribs for their. entertainment she would be Delirious. from the pain and barely conscious from. everything that was going on and they. would in that state where she's not even. there they would force her to memorize. multiplication charts and if they would. quiz her on math and she answered. incorrectly they would beat her more. it sounds like this group is more like. having fun with mentally torturing her.
like enjoying the. process yeah I would say that junko's. capts are just purely more sadistic this. feels like sadistic bullies yeah they. are looking for entertainment yes. whereas I think junko's group I'm sure. they are getting a level of. entertainment but it seems more like. they're getting off on the pain but this. group for Unice. they're getting off on the entertainment. of pain mhm I know it's like such a.
slight difference but it it no it's so. sick yeah yeah they would just keep. beating her now both girls bodies for. example junko's injuries were a lot more. extensive I don't think that people call. the Korean case the junko case because. of the extent of injuries per se but. because everything is so eerily similar. so I don't want to make it seem like oh. this is the same amount of injury or. physical pain both girls had sustained. injury that were really bad junko. obviously worse but near the end neither.
of them could walk on their own neither. of them could hold down food or even. water without throwing it up immediately. they were both severely. malnourished both groups of captors just. kept going and coming up with more. creative ways to torture their hostages. it almost becomes a sick game of who can. torture them in the more creative. sadistic way possible it seems like they. become addicted to the pain that they. are causing I do think that every single. one of these people in both cases are. sick and twisted and would 1,000% commit.
these crimes with or without their. friend group but I think the uniqueness. as they say of the torture aspect the. acts of torture was egged on by the. group mentality is what a lot of experts. say of wanting to outdo each other. almost yeah oh like that's all you could. come up with I'm way more. creative which I hope nobody takes this. as me excusing any of them or lessening. the impact of what they did I honestly. think this just makes it worse this is. more sick a lot of nens were confused. because obviously when it comes to sex.
crimes it's never about the sex it's. about power but junko's captors were. really excited to have a quote play. thing ready at their disposal they. stated that they no longer found junko. attractive so they had to go and find. another one they kidnap and start gang. essaying another woman a 19-year-old. girl in The Runaway family case the. whole reason Kim even reached out to. youo was so that they could sex traffic. her but now they had assaulted her to. the extent that she could no longer work. and make money it's just interesting a.
lot of people point out that both groups. of captors they kidnap the girls for a. very specific reason but they become. overtaken by the sadistic torture mhm. and the torture becomes the new. motive Japan 1988 junko had five. fireworks placed inside of her one in. each ear that makes two one in her mouth. that's three two in both of her private. regions and that's five her captors.
would wait for the fireworks to go off. inside of her and they would let them. explode I don't have the medical. knowledge to tell you exactly what. injuries she would have sustained from. that kind of torture nor is there enough. readily available research online that I. could pull from but especially when it. comes to her private regions junko had. already been so viciously abused that. it's hard to state which torturous. action caused which injury because they. had been essaying her at this point with. glass shards knives metal grilling.
skewers for over a month straight but as. for the ones in her ears the fireworks. her eardrums were busted from the. fireworks she was nearly deaf at this. point they placed fireworks in all of. her. orifices her captors also shoved sewing. needles into her chest they stabbed. hundreds into her chest to the point. where later on the autopsy showed there. were no gaps in between the needles they. just kept shoving more and more and then. they would take turns punching her in.
the. chest they would leave the needles in. there South Korea. 2014 Yuna just wanted some water she had. a very high fever her body was giving up. on her everything felt sore and bruised. and cut up and she cannot breathe she. begs her captors just give me one sip of. water just a little bit of water water. you think you have the right task for. water leave the main abuser the. 25-year-old captor tells the girls the. high school girls to run the kettle boil.
some. water what just do it they rush over to. the kettle and they turn it on when it's. done boiling Lee grabs it he stands over. yuna's body who is crawled up in a fetal. position on the ground and starts. dripping scalding hot water near her she. flinches a little she's terrified and. that gets him going he gets closer and. closer till he starts splattering the. hot SC holding water all over her arms. legs thighs face every part of her body.
she cannot even move she's in so much. pain she's barely screaming either she's. just softly begging them to stop but. they don't by the end again not as. extreme but very similar to junko yuna's. entire body would be covered in pules. from the. Burns and in both cases it comes down to. one last thing one last game the captors. in both cases one want to play one last. game with the girls both girls would. look their captors in the face and play.
Japan 1988 junko had accumulated so much. blood in her sinuses that she could no. longer breathe through her nose she. could barely see after the damage of the. hot candle wax to her eyes she cannot. hear from the fireworks exploding in her. ears she cannot eat or drink anything. her digestive system is shutting down. she weighs close to 65 lbs she cannot. hold her urine some parts of her body. are said to have already started rotting. and she smelled like death every part of. her body was infected her brain had.
shrunk to a fraction of the size it. originally was from the extreme stress. all of her hair had fallen out mainly. her brain had become shriveled she. couldn't even grip anything with her. hands she could not walk she could not. sit up on her own she had blood and pus. filled boils all over her body she had. shattered glass bottles still remaining. inside of her private regions digging. into her insights and yet she is still. alive. and when her captors challenge her to a. game of.
maang she would look them in the. eye and she would win one last. game South Korea 2014 Yuna is crouched. up like a ball on the floor of the back. seat of the car they had driven her. somewhere secluded and she couldn't. really tell they said that they wanted. to play a game tell us Yuna if you could. take any one of us with you when you die. who would you take. remember how 25-year-old Lee was the. worst abuser the one that poured boiling.
water over her the one that used the. metal fan blades to shatter her ribs. yeah she looks up and says. Lee Lee was there he laughs leans back. and starts beating Yuna screaming what. the [ __ ] did I ever do to you and they. make her choose again Yuna likely knows. what's going to happen by whoever she. chooses and yet she still raises her. head and names the next person she would. take and they would start beating her.
with a brick they were losing their. minds they're screaming at her you're. out of your mind I've been nothing but. nice to you and now you want to make fun. of me do you want to die let's die. together then Japan. 1988 after losing a game of majang. against junko junko's captors start. beating her with an iron barbell they. force her to stand up but she can't so. she ends up falling backwards hitting. her head against a stereo splattering. ing blood everywhere and starts. convulsing her captors are really pissed.
though because they think that she's. faking it and when she stops she stops. moving completely they're confused. they're like there's no way she's dead. they kick her nothing they smack her. nothing they drop another dumbbell on. her nothing and now they're agitated. she's really pretending so they grab. lighter fluid and spray it all over her. face forcing it even into her eyes on. her eyeballs and then they take a candle. to light her on fire because they think. she's faking it and this way they'll.
know she's not but she flinches just a. little she was still alive at this point. but she would be burned alive and her. final torture would last 2 hours before. her body finally goes into shock and she. dies South Korea 2014 yuna's captors dro. the bloody brick onto the ground why. isn't she moving anymore they put their. hands under her nose to check for her. breathing for air but nothing what the.
hell they start freaking out I think. she's dead they start freaking out not. because they killed someone but how. inconvenient this is going to be the. captors drive to an isolated Orchard. using a shovel and a pickaxe they start. digging a human-sized hole in the ground. a grave they throw yuna's limp body in. now some sources speculate that she. might have still been alive at this. point but before they cover her body. they pour gasoline all over her face in. particular and throw a match in to light. her on fire they want her face to be.
completely. unrecognizable when her face is. completely charred black they put out. the fire and cover her with soil within. 26 days of first meeting the. perpetrators Yuna is dead but fire is. not enough 26 years apart both groups of. captors have the same idea they want to. make the body disappear but if that's. not feasible how do you make it seem. like it disappears maybe you hide it in. plain sight Japan 1988 the captors.
placed junko's body into a 55g oil drum. and fill it to the brim with concrete. they want to hide the fact that the. muscle in her entire body looks melted. at this point all of her organs appear. to have burst and are shattered some. organs were mangled beyond recognition. there were clear signs of forcible tooth. extraction her lips were completely cut. up and barely there most of her face. bones were crushed they thought the. concrete would fully incase the extent. of their crimes and would completely. hide junko's body so that they could.
move on get away with. murder South Korea 2014 The Runaway. family realized something orchards are. not a great place to bury a body cuz. it's the one place that people naturally. dig they want to plant new trees to. produce fruits and vegetables so that's. the whole point of the orchard no so. they go back to her grave dig it back up. and they see yuna's body there maggots. crawling everywhere and they grab the. cement mixture and start pouring filling. and covering yaa completely just cement. into the ground they think that if.
someone were to come and try to dig to. plant a tree they see cement they're. just going to give up and dig somewhere. else they thought the concrete would. fully encase the extent of their crimes. would completely hide yuna's body so. that they could move on getting away. with murder I think one could argue that. the crimes are similar but not identical. but things start getting very strangely. identical around the time of both groups. arrest Japan 1988. one of junko's captors is arrested the. police sit him down in the interrogation.
room and tell them we know what you did. we know what you did to that girl we. know who you did it with and we're going. to get you guys for it he just opens his. mouth the captor and starts confessing. to everything that they did to junko. over the span of 44 days and when he. finally stops talking when he's done. telling the police everything that junko. had been through they tell him that's. not what we were talking about we didn't. even know what. they had arrested him for the kidnapping. and gang essay of the 19-year-old girl.
remember the other victim mhm South. Korea 2014 initially four of yuna's. captors were arrested they were. wandering around a park when undercover. cops came up to them and put them in. handcuffs officers bring them into the. station for murder the murder of a man. named John they were arrested for a. completely different case they murder. someone else yes well let's call them. and John we just know that his last name. is Kim he had been looking for a sex. worker online when he came across an ad.
posted by one of the girls from The. Runaway family this is a few days after. yuna's murder they agree on the rate and. he goes to meet them at the hotel he. walks into the bathroom afterwards to. freshen up and when he walks back out. there are full grown men sitting on the. bed you know you just had relations with. a minor you're going to have to pay a. whole lot for that unless you want the. world to know they start beating JN. dragging him out the motel into the car. beating him some more taking his jewelry. Keys wallet the main purpose for. physically assaulting him to the extent.
that they were was they wanted more. money he would need to give them his. bank passcodes his social security. number for them to take all of it by the. end JN was slumped over in the back seat. Dead from the beatings which we don't. have too much information on Jon's death. but we do know the beatings were. obviously very bad the perpetrators. would actually switch seats in the back. seat to sit next to him and beat him. like take turns cuz they would get tired. all for. $3,500 when they realize that he is dead. they Panic leave him in the car and run.
away which is really dumb considering. Korean cars legally need black boxes. which are recording devices aside from. license registration and plates it's. pretty easy to track who's been in that. car Japan 1988 jeno's Killers would be. charged with causing bodily injury. resulting in death rather than murder. what yeah I mean it's beyond insanely. lenient considering it's not even the. group's first time committing crimes. people reported if the group of junko's.
captors were around they would always. hear a woman screaming for her life. around they were constantly ganging. essaying people despite the sheer. ruthlessness of their crimes they were. charged as juveniles which I believe do. adult crime do adult time Hiroshi was. sentenced to 20 years Shinji manato 5 to. 7 years even though it took place in his. house yasushi wanabi received 5 to seven. years and Joe Ura received 8 years and. these people are all out yes by now.
still alive still committing crimes. we're going to get into it South Korea. 2014 once the public found out about. yuna's murder they were terrified that. The Killers would be charged with. causing bodily harm resulting in death. but the perpetrators were charged with. murder there were two trials one held. for the underage Miners and the other. held for the adult men that committed. the crimes this is where things get. tricky the girls that were involved in. the case were two 14-year-olds two. 15-year-olds their defense attorneys.
argued that the girls were victims. before they were perpetrators stating. that before Yuna they were forced into. sex work and after seeing what was. happening to Yuna they were terrified to. not participate because they believed if. we don't do this it's going to be us. next they said that the guys made them. follow bizarre rules one of the rules. that they would have to recite every. morning when they woke up was literally. rule number three always be alert or you. can be targeted like yaa anybody can be. the next. Target ultimately the judge acknowledged. that the girls were both perpetrators.
and victims and the judge stated it. seems like the male accomplices were in. a superior position physically and. mentally because of the defendants age. and stature they were about 10 years. younger and the younger defendants must. have felt some fear watching the harsh. acts committed by the male accomplices. against the victim but the judge argued. that the girls still did nothing to try. and help yaa they did not alert the. authorities they did not tell an adult. even up until the the last second they. did not do anything the judge felt like. yes the girls are victims but they are. also perpetrators the girls were.
sentenced to around 6 to9 years each the. second trial consisted of the adult men. Kim the boyfriend that lured Yuna to the. motel was actually not involved in the. murder he was consulted on how to mix. the concrete he gave them advice but he. was not there for most of the abuse or. the killing which I don't really think. means anything he knew what they were. going to do to her he knew that he was. luring underage girls out of their homes. but he was only sentenced to 5 years. the rest of the guys they start pointing. the finger at each other eventually the. guys even start blaming the underage.
girls stating that they don't know why. the underage girls were beating yaa they. never told the girls to do that they. start alleging that the girls did that. on their own free will and maybe they. misheard what the guys told them to do. but when that didn't work they argued. that they can't be held responsible for. their crimes because they were drunk and. have impulse control issues the. perpetrators whose identities have not. been released were sentenced to 35 years. to life in prison how just one person or. three now remorse is a big thing for. both cases during the trial for junko's.
case one of the captors even said Juna. was just unlucky and she got caught like. a fool I mean isn't she ashamed to have. attracted such messed up people like us. yeah one of the mothers of junko's. perpetrators even blame junko for the. fact that her son is now going to be in. prison and going to be an ex-convict she. said this is all because of junko then. she went and vandalized junko's grave. another Killer's mom 35 years after the. fact opened up a restaurant nearby the. place of the murder which just seems. intentionally.
disrespectful wait 35 years yeah like. recently I believe she opened up a. restaurant. nearby I did see some people bringing up. how one of the captors Juno's Killers. wanted to leave flowers near her grave. to honor her after killing her but the. others convinced them absolutely not but. it was not because he had a sudden. change in character or suddenly felt. human emotions he wanted to put flowers. out near her grave because he was scared. that junko's Spirit would be mad at him. and would haunt him like a ghost and.
that he would be cursed by her vengeful. spirit for yuna's case neens were. Furious that the adult men's identities. are being protected they commented let's. bring back the death penalty let's. incinerate some trash they should cut. off the limbs for those older than 20. younger on should be sentenced to life. in prison it's supposed to be like that. but the law has become too lenient the. legal punishment system has problems. another comment reads I won't pay taxes. if they're not. executed and if you really think about. it if history really does in fact repeat.
itself shouldn't the identities of the. adult male killers in yuna's case be. leaked in Japan originally the names of. junko's four killers were redacted their. identities are protected but journalists. were able to find out their government. names and publish them for everyone all. four of them the reporter said they're. not human therefore they shall not. receive human rights nobody disagreed. the killer names are Hoshi Miano 18. years old at the time of the crime Joe. Ura 18 years old Shinji manato 16 years.
old yasushi wab 17 years old as of right. now all of junko's killers are free most. of them have changed their names. committed more crimes including saay and. even attempted murder where one of them. slashed a man's throat with a knife but. they're all free. again and soon yuna's Killers will be. free too and we have no idea who they. are or where they're going to. be and that is the case of South Korea's.
junko so this is like um also because. recently the Mir young rape case yes so. I see a lot of comments for us to cover. it we've covered it it's just an audio. format we are debating revisiting that. case but we're following all the new. developments and just keeping up with it. if you guys want to get the full case in. detail let me know in the comments but. 44 kids brutally essayed a gang essay to. girl and their identities are being. leaked right now not by the government.
by literally netizens yeah so let me. know in the comments if you guys want us. to cover that but please stay safe. please and take care of yourself and I. will see you guys in the next one bye.
