The Sasebo Slashing - Nevada-tan

About this episode

In June 2004, a routine school day in Sasebo, Japan, ended in tragedy when 12 year old Satomi Mitarai was lured from her classroom and murdered by her classmate with a box cutter.
As investigators dug deeper, they uncovered a friendship that had quietly fallen apart and evidence suggesting the attack had been building beneath the surface for days.
What began as a shocking murder inside an elementary school would soon become one of the most infamous juvenile crime cases in Japanese history, raising difficult questions about childhood, bullying, and internet culture, while ultimately giving rise to the disturbing online phenomenon known as Nevada-tan.
