in the late 1930's a woman named sada abe met and fell in love with an already married restaurant owner, kichizo ishida. the two had an affair. One can only imagine the jealousy sada felt towards his wife and any other woman who wanted him. kichizo's dead mutilated corpse showed up in a tokyo hotel, the words "kichi and sada-inseparable forever" had been carved into his left forearm and his penis and testicles were missing. a warrant was soon put out for sada's arrest and when she was found and interrogated by the police, she told them, "i loved him so much... i knew that if i killed him, no other woman could ever love him, so i killed him.". So you decide, just another sociopathic murder case, or the ultimate love story of the 20th century?
note- the japenese word for sadaism is derived from sada. Sada- ism, sound familiar...?
