Both died of pulmonary tuberculosis when Toi was still a baby, so he and his older sister Minako were raised by their grandmother Yone. He was interested in ¨Yobai (夜這い¨, a rural Japanese custom of sneaking into the bedrooms of womens in search of sexual relations. In May 1937, he was diagnosed with tuberculosis, which generated the rejection and contempt of women and his neighbors, according to Toi. ==The Massacre== On May 20, 1938, Mutsuo Toi, armed with a Browning shotgun, an axe, and a katana, cut the electricity lines at around 5:00 p.m., leaving the village in darkness. At around 1:40 a.m., he killed his grandmother by decapitating her with an axe, tied two flashlights to his head, then went house to house stabbing or shooting his victims. In a matter of 90 minutes, Toi killed 29 people (27 died instantly, 2 were seriously injured and died later) and 3 people were wounded. At dawn, Toi committed suicide by shooting himself in the chest. == List of Victims == # Yone (76 years) # Tsukiyo (50 years) # Yoshio (14 years) # Mamoru (11 years) # Tome (43 years) # Yoshiko Otomo (22 years) # Shuji (50 years) # Chizuko Okaniwa (22 years) # Takashi (22 years) # Chie Nishida (20 years) # Takeo Teranaka (18 years) # Masakazu (60 years) # Teiichi (19 years) # Toki (15 years) # Hana (12 years) # Setsugo Nogi (22 years) # Koshiro (86 years) # Toyo (45 years) # Konni (21 years) # Tsuruyo (21 years) # Misa (19 years) # Tora Hirachi (65 years) # Ito (47 years) # Miya (34 years) # Akio (5 years) # Tsuru (72 years) # Katsuichi (74 years) # Hama (56 years) # Kazuo (51 years) # Miyo (32 years) ==References== *https://historycollection.com/dont-know-tsuyama-massacre-tuberculosis-tipped-madman-edge/3/ *https://web.archive.org/web/20080526062236/http://www.alpha-net.ne.jp/users2/knight9/tuyama.htm [[Category:Male]] [[Category:Murderer]] [[Category:Mass Murderers]] [[Category:Japan]] [[Category:Asian Villains]] [[Category:Suicidal]] [[Category:Deceased]] [[Category:Modern Villains]] [[Category:Young villains]]
