I just went to look up the subway story and apparently, the same thing happened on a platform in NYC last year but the guy stopped once a crowd formed....WHY IS THIS A THING 🤢😡
The Junko case is THE most disturbing case I've ever heard in my entire life. As a criminology major, I have the stomach for a lot of things, but that case is... yeah, no...
@@msmissy9976 lightbulb vagina and I can't remember if it was her story or another where they cut her breasts too? Too many to really decide which is worse 🤔 it's okay you'll grow thicker skin Watch Seven as a starter 🙌
@@DBrokeMillenialYes, that's her case. So much more happened to her though and it was over the course of 40+ days. Her death was extremely slow and painful... I don't think its a matter of having thick skin, tbh...
LMAO "Well guys, you can find Nick dead in a ditch." Nicks stories reminded me of when I accidently kicked a homeless man thinking it was a big garbage bag of blankets, he covered himself up completely and was sleeping, in Fair Oaks HAHAHAHA fucking ran for my life felt so bad
The police also royally fucked up Junko’s case They got a tip and they went to the house where Junko was being tortured and the mom or brother just said there wasn’t a girl there and the police just left???
Not quite related but I heard that if you don't want to pay your cable bill in Japan, you just tell them you don't have a tv and they won't do anything. Seems like people are not very confrontational there.
7:00 reminds me of the Bystander Effect episode from Psycho-Pass the anime. People are so reliant on others that they won't take on the responsibility themselves. This is one of the most horrifying things I've ever heard from America. I hope that woman gets justice and make a full recovery.
Mexican American here, my parents drove all the way to the middle in michoacan..they didn't really go out cause of how bad it was. The week they got there my cousins husband got kidnapped along with his father since they own like a auto part store and they took all of their merchandise they were delivering and held them random for 3.5k each. Then they threatened them they had a quota weekly. They stopped delivering to that little town. It's bad down there, my parents are also from this hole in the mountain little ranch where chapo was hidden for years and nobody snitched on him out for the same reason cause their lives and family would of been on the line. I have some family members that worked for him long ago
Bruh I read the junko case a couple of years ago and I literally felt physically sick, I still feel legitimately sick about it. It's one of those cases where it makes you lose trust in humanity 😔😔 rip Junko. I hope she's not suffering anymore
Kitty Genovese was the name of that lady, but the case has been widely misinterpreted. They act like people literally saw her and just watched, but that was journalism clickbait. There was one guy who kind of didn't do anything, but most of the people didn't know what was going on or they weren't aware enough to see that something was wrong.
Japanese are also not really "allowed" to show as much emotion in comparison to Koreans. They are literally trained to be emotionless because everyone is. The only exception would be the people from the Osaka/Kansai Region in Japan who are pretty emotional. In Japan, people who stray away from the norm are looked up to by the newer younger generation but the old people in Japan will immediately start calling them delinquents in a hope to get them to conform and beat them down. Its much harder in the big cities versus the small cities. Tattoos are slowly getting normalized by Japanese celebrities but that old way of thinking isn't going to change anytime soon so not everyone can get away with tattoos - majority of people will still connect tattoos to the yakuza.
I'm from el paso Texas and I actually do know someone who got kidnapped by the cartel and lived. Also I feel like a part of what causes bystanders effect is most people are afraid to get pulled into the drama and sued
Yeah they had a documentary on how Japan treated like juvenile offenders cause they interviewed a father of a victim who was beheaded by some high schooler and the victim was like a child like 10 or 8 and they let the high schooler go to like some rehab place for 4 months and was released free and the dad admitted he knows where the kid lives and everything but he knows he'll get in more trouble if he ever did anything
I read a follow-up article after the rape one. The bystanders were moving in and out of the subway stops and people did intervene. That's how police were able to be called.
What happened to junko furuta was horrible. The fact that she didn't get any justice is insane. All the men that tortured junko furuta are still alive. One of them is married.
the other day, there was some guy in my city who got stabbed bad trying to not be a bystander. But I still wish I'd intervene even though I'm stupid and might get hurt or hit the victim instead 😭
Something happened like that in NYC last December or January. Girl was getting violated on the ground in the middle of a station. Guy got away. Nobody thought to step in
That segment was almost borderline prejudiced. I like this trio on this podcast, but they need to do better on not associating tragedies from drug trafficking with certain groups of people, specifically Latin-American immigrants. Imagine you're an innocent business owner like the fruit stand vendors and now suddenly you have to deal with racist paranoid people who think you're apart of a crime syndicate. As a person of Latin descent, it was a bit uncomfortable. And I know they don't have to settle for that low hanging fruit for humor.
Listening to all the crackhead/homeless person stories all I could think was, where does Nick live? He needs to move. Also the correct number of people to smoke crack on your doorstep is 0. This should not be happening lol just move!
The Joker. Hurting so much on the inside. Making your exterior match your interior. Aligning the outside in, inside out. Living your truth, even a toxic truth. A desire to feel authentic, even a toxic authenticity. To feel alive. The walking dead.
Well I haven't listened to the podcast yet going by the title it seems Japan has reverted back to the 1980s were serials killers are literally everywhere and the identities unknown
Thats crazy. Maybe once they start reporting these criminals Japan wouldn't be as safe as people think it is. People act like Japan is the most safest country in the world.
Bro that rape story was fucking crazy but then followed up with that gangrape story in the house where the mom KNOWS... bruh... wtf is going on with this world :'(
Getting tattoos as a fashion is not that uncommon in Japan. The traditional horimono tattoos has always been used by non-yakuzas throughout history and other modern tattoos are quite common nowadays
I know a lot people say “if I was there I would’ve done this” but it’s not always like that. Honestly I can say though I really would’ve done something just because that’s just how I am and I have intervened in situations like that before. So I know what I would do but I can’t speak for other people. That’s just sad how the generation is today. Forget recording . You wouldn’t have to have evidence if you just stop it in the first place.
What did David say, when he explained that the church handed over 500k for the girls release? He rambled it out and I’m hard on hearing. Is she alive? Half of what now?
I believe there is an actual japanese movie based around those two guys who kidanapped that girl. Didn't they put her in like an oil can and fill it with wet concrete and leave her in a park or something? Extremely messed up shit. And obviously this movie was a watered down version of the events that actually happened, reading deeper into this stuff will get your blood boiling. Worst part about it is that I don't even think this pales in comparison to some of the most messed up shit Japanese serial killers have done. The otaku killer is another terrible part of recent Japanese history, seriously ruined my whole day reading into that one. And to think they let that dude go? Fking mental.
Nick unintentionally explained why women jump to the rescue before men do. Most don't think they'll get hit, men don't have the luxury of having that logic
Mexico isn’t actually that bad it just like everywhere else it’s not perfect but only a few places are truly bad but not all places of Mexico are bad. As long as you don’t act stupid you’re fine in Mexico
Maaannnnnn aint no way. First Alex then Nick lol praying they both move eventually (hopefully Alex already dipped). Edit:Nvm lol just got further in. Yall keep talking to em 😂
So interesting watch men discuss sexual assault… I dunno how I felt about the segment honestly. Props to bringing it up though at least, when I read that story it made me want to throw up.
Yeah, it doesn't sit right with me that people hesitate to to step in when someone is getting assaulted like that. Imagine how upsetting for the victim that everyone around just watched...
Yeah cuz men don’t get sexually assaulted. “Well, they do but way less than women”.. yeah Morgan, that doesn’t mean we can’t talk about it just cuz we have dicks. I have been sexually harassed by women, twice. Do I have your permission to talk about it?
@@Jabree when did I once say men don’t get sexually assaulted? In this case I was referring to the context, of men discussing the public SA of a women. At times I felt they were too jokey with it but I respect them bringing it up. Why are so you up in arms? Relax, it isn’t about you.
@@Mfchannel1001 Then be clear in your comment. “Interesting to watch men talk about sexual assault” is a general statement. Look at the comment and what type of people it attracted and the thread it spawned. And yes IT IS about me because I don’t want my voice to be minimized just cuz I’m a man. Thanks
@@Mfchannel1001 your comment makes it look like its something strange or wrong that men talk about it. Or that men cant fathom what sexual assault is because theyre men. The response you got from others here makes complete sense.
I don't understand the reason behind a guy not being able to punch or push a girl if the girl is attacking the guy. I thought everything's equal in todays age
had tah skip thru the subway talk it's disgusting and made me feel sick that nobody helped this fuckin girl by stander affect my ass that's jus another excuse for not helping someone but when it happens to them they will be sry
