Yick!!! 🎃
These were serial killer Tsutomu Miyazaki’s hands. Born with a rare deformity that fused his wrist bones and left him unable to bend his wrists, Miyazaki’s hands became a lifelong source of shame and isolation, something he kept hidden in his pockets, away from the world.
Between 1988 and 1989, Miyazaki used those very hands to abduct, strangle, and mutilate four little girls in Tokyo. He drank their blood, kept body parts as souvenirs, and even returned to the crime scenes to photograph their decomposing remains. He wasn’t just a killer,he was a predator obsessed with death, control, and suffering.
The horror Miyazaki inflicted was not only physical but it was also psychological, both for his victims’ families and for a nation stunned by his cruelty.
He was apprehended in Hachiōji, Tokyo, after attempting to abduct and mo**st a young girl in a park. The girl's father intervened, allowing Miyazaki to escape temporarily. However, he returned to retrieve his car and was subsequently arrested by the police. The police discovered over 5,700 videotapes in his residence, including horror films and disturbing footage related to his crimes. These materials contributed to the media's portrayal of him as the "Otaku Killer."
