One of Japan's most notorious serial killers, who murdered and mutilated four young girls and reportedly drank the blood of one of his victims, was executed Tuesday along with two convicted murders.
Tsutomu Miyazaki, 45, whose grisly killings of the girls, ages 4 to 7, in the late 1980s triggered calls for tighter restrictions on violent pornographic videos, was hanged at a detention center in Tokyo.
He burned the body of a 4-year-old and left her bones on her parents' doorstep. He also wrote letters to the media and victims' families taunting police. Japanese newspaper reports said he ate part of the hand of one of his victims and drank her blood. Miyazaki also was convicted of the abduction and sexual assault of a fifth girl.
