We'll be diving into the Setagaya family murder, one of Japan's most unsettling unsolved cases.
On the night of 30-31 December 2000, a family of four were killed in their Tokyo home by an unknown intruder. What makes this case stand out is what happened after.
The attacker stayed in the house for hours, using the family's belongings and leaving behind an unusual amount of forensic evidence, including DNA and clothing.
Despite decades of investigation and thousands of leads, no one has been identified. It raises difficult questions about evidence, investigation limits, and what it means for a case to remain unresolved.
