Rei had been strangled while the rest of the family was stabbed to death, Japan Today reported in 2015. On the morning of New Year's eve, the bodies of Mikio Miyazawa, 44, and his 41-year-old wife Yasuko, along with their children Niina, 8, and Rei, 6, were discovered by Yasuko's mother. The podcast explores the disturbing, and puzzling, 2000 murders of the Miyazawa family in the Tokyo neighborhood of Setagaya. The still-unidentified killer - dubbed The Faceless Man - is now the subject of a USG Audio podcast titled “Faceless.” The unprecedented murder of an entire suburban family has continued to baffle police in Japan, more than two decades after the killing.
