TOKYO: A Japanese man dubbed the “Twitter killer” was sentenced to death by a Tokyo court on Tuesday (Dec 15) for murdering and dismembering nine people he met online.
Takahiro Shiraishi, 30, admitted killing and butchering his young victims – all but one of whom were women – who he met on the social media platform.
His lawyers had argued he should receive a prison sentence because his victims, aged between 15 and 26, expressed suicidal thoughts on social media and so had consented to death.
