The daughter, 33, weighed less than 42 pounds — about the average weight of a 4-year-old — when her body was discovered Saturday, police said. She appeared to have died from exposure to the cold, police said.
The couple, who live in Osaka, kept their daughter in an unheated structure next to their house, according to police. The room measured about 39 square feet and the pair locked it from the outside, police said.
Her parents fed the woman one meal a day and forced her to drink water through a tube, police said.
The couple, who were arrested Tuesday and remain in police custody, said they confined their child because she was mentally ill and violent.

Guess they dint like her much
May God embrace this ladies soul.
Wow, this is pure evil.
“The couple, who were arrested Tuesday and remain in police custody, said they confined their child because she was mentally ill and violent”.
SHE was mentally ill? At 42 pounds?
I picture a large wood Chipper...
Grinding 24/7/365
And IT’S sucking up All these kinds of
MONSTERS!

15 years of hell——the poor thing.

Words escape me.
"...locked in a room for fifteen years..."
A wood chipper would be too fast.
There has to be a lot more to this story. Yes, what they did is monstrous. But I have to believe these folks were just a bit nuts themselves.
They had an 18 year old daughter one day, and then no one sees her again?
I know Japan has some unusual cultural things going on...but the whole thing sounds just too nuts.
The house looked like a criminal compound with high walls and surveillance cameras to scare off potential intruders. Definitely not a normal home. Why the police or neighbors or school officials didn’t inquire further I have no idea.
methinks the parents were the ones who were mentally ill and violent- deadly violent
If she disappeared at 18 everyone probably assumed she was married off, left home on her own, or was institutionalized. If she had been known to be mentally ill- perhaps schizophrenia- before the parents did this, and neighbors just assumed she had been sent away to an institution, in that culture, maybe mental illness in the family is as bad a loss of face. It may have been considered polite not to inquire about how she was doing or where she had been sent and embarrass the parents.
And Japan doesn’t have the death penalty.

Inscrutable.
Yes they do.
Slow dangle and strangle hangings.
After a longish wait, the prisoner’s first clue today is the day is when they open the cell to drag them off to the noose.
No advanced public notice, no protests.
I’ve never heard of one of these horror stories from Japan before. I guess that wherever there are people, there is the potential for profoundly evil behavior.
I can’t help but think back on that German who locked his daughter away in a fortified underground structure and kept impregnating her. He was only caught because he took one of her kids to a doctor, and the doctor started asking questions.
They do have a death penalty, I don’t know if this crime applies. The Japanese concept of execution is that they come get you and nobody knows you’ve been killed until it is over.
