Miyuki Ishikawa

By Jesse Russell

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Miyuki Ishikawa (石川 ミユキ, Ishikawa Miyuki?, born 1897, date of death unknown) was a Japanese midwife and serial killer who is believed to have murdered many infants with the aid of several accomplices throughout the 1940s. It is estimated that her victims numbered between 85 to 169, however the general estimate is 103. When she was finally apprehended, the Tokyo High Court's four-year sentence she received was remarkably light considering that Miyuki's actions resulted in a death toll so high that it remains unrivaled by any other serial killer in Japan. According to a report of Children's Rainbow Center, writer Kenji Yamamoto (山本健治, Yamamoto Kenji?) referred to the incident as "unbelievable and unbearable."
