Junko Furuta: The Girl Who Went through 44 days of Torture
This is a real story of a 17 year old school girl Junko Furuta. She went through 44 days of horrible, unimaginable torture.
I got the following time line from Facebook, emails, etc...
DAY 1: November 22, 1988: Kidnapped
Kept captive in house, and posed as one of boy’s girlfriend
Raped (over 400 times in total)
Forced to call her parents and tell them she had run away
Starved and malnutritioned
Fed cockroaches to eat and urine to drink
Forced to masturbate
Forced to strip in front of others
Burned with cigarette lighters
Foreign objects inserted into her vagina/anus
DAY 11: December 1, 1988: Severely beat up countless times
Face held against concrete ground and jumped on
Hands tied to ceiling and body used as a punching bag
Nose filled with so much blood that she can only breath through her mouth
Dumbbells dropped onto her stomach
Vomited when tried to drink water (her stomach couldn’t accept it)
Tried to escape and punished by cigarette burning on arms
Flammable liquid poured on her feet and legs, then lit on fire
Bottle inserted into her anus, causing injury
DAY 20: December10, 1989: Unable to walk properly due to severe leg burns
Beat with bamboo sticks
Fireworks inserted into anus and lit
Hands smashed by weights and fingernails kracked
Beaten with golf club
Cigarettes inserted into vagina
Beaten with iron rods repeatedly
Winter; forced outside to sleep in balcony
Skewers of grilled chicken inserted into her vagina and anus, causing bleeding
DAY 30: Hot wax dripped onto face
Eyelids burned by cigarette lighter
Stabbed with sewing needles in chest area
Left nipple cut and destroyed with pliers
Hot light bulb inserted into her vagina
Heavy bleeding from vagina due to scissors insertion
Unable to urinate properly
Injuries were so severe that it took over an hour for her to crawl downstairs and use the bathroom
Eardrums severely damaged
Extreme reduced brain size
DAY 40: Begged her torturers to “kill her and get it over with”
January 1, 1989: Junko greets the New Years Day alone
Body mutilated
Unable to move from the ground
DAY 44: January 4, 1989: The four boys beat her mutilated body with an iron barbell, using a loss at the game of Mah-jongg as a pretext. She is profusely bleeding from her mouth and nose. They put a candle’s flame to her face and eyes.
Then, lighter fluid was poured onto her legs, arms, face and stomach, and then lit on fire. This final torture lasted for a time of two hours.
Junko Furuta died later that day, in pain and alone. Nothing could compare 44 days of suffering she had to go through.
When her mother heard the news and details of what had happened to her daughter, she fainted. She had to undergo a psychiatric outpatient treatment. Imagine her endless pain.
The Criminals:
Just imagine, if it's your daughter or son who suffered with such torture, maybe you would just wish that they kill her on the spot, with no much pain suffered, instead of that 44 days of tortures.
Maybe Junko Furuta's parents had asked why the criminals have to make their daughter suffer such long days, why they have to kill her, why they have to kidnap her.
Of course, no loving parents would like to have their son or daughter get tortured, not even on their imagination!!!
Although the criminals have been tried as adults (even if they are juvenile), these criminals are not free man. They don't deserve it!
There are movies made to retell the story of Junko Furuta. Here are Junko Furuta movies:
Concrete-Encased High School Girl Murder Case (year 1995 director Katsuya Matsumura)
Concrete (AKA Schoolgirl in Cement, year 2004 directed by Hiromu Nakamura)

The GazettE, a Japanese rock band (if you like Japanese songs and you love rock, you should know them), had made a song dedicated to Junko Furuta. The song is called "Taion" (Body Temperature), included in their album NIL
