Police Reaches Dead End in Belgian ‘Manga Murder’ Case
…on November 24 that the police have no concrete leads in the two-month-old case of body parts found near notes linked to the Death Note manga. On September 28, two hikers found a human torso and two thighs in Duden Park in the city of Saint-Gilles. Police later determined the shaven parts came from a Caucasian male individual. No identification or personal effects were found on the body parts, but two pieces of paper were found nearby with the same message in Roman capital letters: “WATASHI WA KIRA DESS.” This is an apparent misspelling of the Japanese phrase “Watashi wa Kira desu,” or “I am Kira (Killer),” that is used in Tsugumi Ooba and Takeshi Obata’s Death Note suspense manga series…
…No missing person was reported whose description matches the body parts. The only potential witness that has come forward was a jogger that said she saw a blond man lying down in the area where the body parts were discovered. However, she could not provide any more clues…
Ray’s take: Well, duh! Kira used the Death Note! No wonder no evidence could be found. No wonder this doesn’t even look like anything in the Death Note manga and anime. I mean, come on! If I were Kira, would I do something exactly like the manga so that people can actually solve the case and find me???
Oops. XD BTW, I’ve NEVER EVER been to Belgium.
