For my last episode of 2021 - I’m bringing you back to Japan, where my podcast started. The thing about Japan is - in general, it’s a very safe place to live. Guns are nearly nonexistent and crime is pretty minimal. But I’ve always said, when someone goes off here and does something illegal, it’s usually to the extreme. Tonight we’re talking about one of those extreme crimes, this one is referred to as the Akihabara massacre. Thirteen years ago, Tomohiro Kato would go on an absolute rampage in one of the busiest neighborhoods in Tokyo. In the end, Six men and one woman would be killed. His reason for the murder spree? Revenge for the poor treatment he perceived to have been received. We’ll talk about who Tomohiro Kato was, what he did, and what lead to this senseless massacre.
