When a upper middle class family of four in the Setagaya District of Japan are slaughtered in their home everyone wonders what could be the motive? The family are well loved and having no known enemies could this be a random robbery gone bad? Except money was left, the killer stayed for hours after killing father Mikio, mother Yaskuo, daughter Ninna and son Rei, ate food from their kitchen, used their bathroom leaving excrement in the toilet, left a duffel bag with evidence which leads back to a military base in California, used the families knives to kill them and even left a body imprint on the couch and carpeting where he took a nap. There are more odd details and you can hear the Miyazawa family's story here.
If YOU happened to be living in Japan in the early 2000's or know anything about these horrific murders there is a $200,000 (US dollars) reward for information on the case.
