Mum Spins Child in Washing Machine!

16 Jul, 2010
Mum Spins Child in Washing Machine!

What is the world coming to! A Japanese lady was arrested for strangling her five-year-old daughter, Mone, to death.

What is the world coming to! According to an article in the Staits Times, a Japanese lady was arrested for strangling her five-year-old daughter, Mone, to death.  Ms Junko Egashira, 34, was quoted telling the police that she “coiled a plastic rope around my daughter’s neck and hanged her from a shelf. Later, I found her dead.”

Egashira also revealed to the cops that she used to trap five year old Mone inside a running washing machine. She admitted to covering Mone’s mouth several times with tape and binding her hands and legs before dumping her in  a water-filled washing machine. The mum would at times turn the machine to spin!

Another torture method she would use is to tie up her child to a shelf with her arms spread out and hang water-filled buckets from them, leaving her in the position for hours.

How horrific!
