Biography

Born and raised in Japan, Sagawa earned a degree in English literature from Wako University. An exceptional student, he was admitted to pursue postgraduate studies at the Sorbonne. In 1981, he murdered and cannibalized a fellow student, a beautiful woman named Renée Hartevelt. After the crime was uncovered, the judge ruled Sagawa mentally unstable and unfit for trial. His affluent father arranged for his extradition to a psychiatric hospital in Japan, where he was confined for 15 months before being released. Now a national celebrity, Sagawa spends his time appearing on talk shows, acting in films, writing novels, and painting. He openly discusses his crime and remains entirely unrepentant.
