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.

Thanks.

I thought Japan abolished the death penalty in ‘45.

Learn something new every day.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.

Hmmm. You made me look.

There is an error in my original post, it’s not dangle and strangle, it’s the more merciful long drop, a quick death by neck fracture.

Learn something new every day.

Thanks!

Dreadful. RIP.
