Om avsnittet

In 1999, Namiko Takaba was stabbed to death in her Nagoya apartment by a woman disguised as a beverage salesperson. Her husband Satoru spent 22 million yen (£115,000) over 26 years preserving the crime scene, hoping DNA technology would identify the killer. In 2025, his former high school classmate Kumiko Yasufuku was arrested — she'd killed Namiko out of jealousy after seeing Satoru happy at a reunion. Full story of Japan's longest-preserved crime scene with crisis resources.
