Greed as a motive?
Killed her lovers: “Poison Lady” died in custody
An obviously greedy woman in Japan brutally killed several lovers. She has now died at the age of 78 in a prison in Osaka.
The Japanese woman had numerous relationships with men, most of her partners were elderly or ill. She met some of her partners through a dating portal where she specifically searched for wealthy and childless men. Before poisoning the men with cyanide, she had their life insurance policies transferred to her. In this way, she is said to have raked in the equivalent of 8.6 million euros over ten years.
Chisako Kakehi's death was confirmed in hospital on Thursday after she was found lying in her cell, a representative of the Ministry of Justice said on Friday. The cause of death has not yet been determined, it added. Japanese media reported an unspecified illness.
Sentenced to death
Around ten years ago, Kakehi was sentenced to death for the murder of three men, including her husband, and the attempted murder of another man. The series of crimes caused quite a stir in Japan: Kakehi became known as the "black widow" and "poison lady".
