ISSEI SAGAWA / THE HUMAN EATER

Isseı Sagawa

THE HUMAN EATER

Issei Sagawa (72) is a Japanese human eater (Cannibal). Actually, he is more than that. He is a cannibal, murderer, and necrophile (sexually likes corpses). He is majorly known for killing a woman called Renée Hartevelt. The interesting thing is he was actually arrested but he was released after 2 pre-trial detentions. The reason for that was he is legally crazy. After that, he was sent to Japan and lived a normal life. (If you can say normal to playing in p*rn videos and being interviewed). He even played in a documentary for him called "Caniba". 



Back to Renée, when Sagawa was 32, he invited his classmate Renée (25), to do their assignment and have dinner. He had an inferiority complex because he thought of himself as ugly, weak, and small (he was relatively small to the others because of the health issues, 144.8 cm). He selected her because of her health and beauty (which are the characteristics that he didn't have). He wanted to absorb her energy by eating her. When she came to his house, she started to read poems with her back facing Sagawa. He shot her in the neck with a rifle. After killing her he fainted because of the shock, but he had a plan to continue. 



He had slept with her corpse and tried to eat her raw but his teeth weren't sharp enough. Because of that, he went to buy a butcher knife. After he cut her, he started to eat most of her breasts and face. Some parts were eaten cooked, some parts were raw. He placed the remaining parts in the refrigerator. He also took photos of her eaten body. After eating her he tried to get rid of the remaining corpse by throwing her in two suitcases but he was caught by the French Police 4 days later.



Sagawa's father was a wealthy businessman who was the president of Kurita Water Industries. He provided a lawyer for his son's defense. After 2 years of awaiting trial, he was found legally insane and he was hospitalized in a mental intuition. There, an author named Inuhiko Yomota visited him. And he published his manga about the killings in the name of "In the Fog". After that, French authorities sent him to a hospital in Japan. His examinations declared that he was sane and his sole motivation for the murders was sexual. But in Japan charges against him have dropped. And on 12 August 1986, he checked himself out of the hospital and remained a free man ever since.

TSUTOMU MIYAZAKI / THE OTAKU MURDERER

Tsutomu Mıyazakı THE OTAKU MURDERER Tsutomu Miyazaki is a Japanese serial killer, cannibal, child rapist, child murderer, and necrophile (sexually likes corpses). He murdered 4 young girls and was called "Otaku Murderer" (socially awkward, likes anime and manga and such) by the media.  Miyazaki was the eldest son of a rich family. He was born premature and his hands' joints were fused together. That prevented him from being able to bend his wrists upwards. He thought about suicide because of the parental negligence that he felt. He only felt his grandfather's closeness. When he died Miyazaki ate some of his ashes to "retain something from him". Weeks later his sister caught him when he was watching her shower. When she told him to leave, he attacked her. Then her mother learned about the incident and told him to work more and spend less time watching videos. When she told him that, he attacked her as well. During the day he was a normal citizen but outside t...
