A man has been arrested after he was found to be carrying the now liquid remains of a child in his backpack. He claimed the child was his and that he had been carrying everywhere he went for the past 5 years or more.
The 34-year-old man, by his own admission of no fixed abode or address, paid an unauthorised visit to a Tokyo University women’s dormitory at Mitaka City in Tokyo, for reasons which are not clear.
After being spotted loitering at the site, he was challenged by a janitor who asked to see what was in his rucksack. He refused, and was subsequently arrested and charged with trespassing.
Police investigating his rucksack discovered it contained an intensely stinking mass wrapped in plastic sheeting, its contents having liquefied and turned into a mud-like soup, with hard objects resembling bones visible within.
The man explained that the bag contained “his own child, who died suddenly 5-6 years ago,” and that “I’ve been carrying it around with me wherever I go.”
He gave police the details of the child’s mother, and she confirmed that the couple had a child some 10 years previously, which died suddenly. She kept the remains and later passed them to the man. Why these dates are contradictory is not known.
Just how long the corpse had really been sloshing around in his backpack is not clear.
The man has been charged with trespassing and police are investigating charging him with abandonment of a corpse, not that he actually abandoned it. An autopsy of the remains has also been ordered.

How would you like your slushie sir?
Rule 1. Do not disturb the scene of a death.
Rule 2. Do not abandon the corpse.
Rule 3. The computer is your friend.
I can kind of see why he did it though. hell I still have my first psp that I brought with my summer job *even though it's broken* it's like you just can't bear to throw away or let go of the things that have made your life so wonderful, no matter how disfigured and dirtied they may be.
Saya no Uta anyone?
Old Snake: "LIQUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID!!"
The sloshing got me. *Barf*
To some people, this might be disgusting, but for me, it's rather moving...
The father loved (maybe?) his child so much that he brings him/her anywhere he goes... and he is never disgusted by the fact that it's just the liquified remains of his child.
May you rest in peace, o son of man.
I thought it was more sad that this man was that horribly crushed by the death of his child. I don't see it mentioned, but I'd bet money that he lost jobs and housing from grief.
I'm between disgusted reading the word "soup" and feeling really sorry/pity on the guy for bringing his lost child remains..
Now that's disgusting. Almost made me stop eating my breakfast. Almost.
By the way, for those of you wondering about the recipe for baby soup, I'd assume that's just what happens when a body decomposes wrapped in plastic so the water in said body can't escape.
*lost for words*
IT'S PAAAFEKUTO!
The discretion with the date of deaths gives the eerie feeling that the man maybe a wandering ghost.
Oh God, not a long time ago i found a rotten corpse of a cat near my house, and i exactly know what kind of "soup" mentioned there.........
As for the years, The way I would understand it, the child died about 10 years ago, and the mother had it for the first 4-5 years, and the father had it since then.
Though I would imagine ashes would be a bit more practical and less..smelly.
Ah, but cremation costs up to 300 dollars USD.... which this man might not have had.
bonfire ftw? No one will ever know anyway.
Through a barbeque party to cover it up then :p
A bonfire big enough to reduce a body to ashes would make everybody knows, actually.
They should give that man a thorough body examination. He could be missing some organs, like a certain mother from a certain anime for resurrecting the child. He's out to find the TRUTH in some university.
"...and police are investigating charging him with abandonment of a corpse, not that he actually abandoned it."
Does not compute.
Grief makes you do the strangest things.
how is it liquified? did he blenderize it before or does the human body liquify thru decomposition?
The body tissue begins to liquefy itself in the later stages of decomposition.
thats so fucked up
I find this touching.. the father loved the kid so much. Or am I missing something here.
Ah, this article had to come right after I had a good serving of porridge, with pork ribs to boot...
...NICE SOUP
The guy was trying to reenact the Akira chapter of Live-A-Live.
Decomp in an enclosed space. Mmm mm.
OH SHIT
I have liquefied children in my balls, millions of them. I'm so fucked if the cops ever find me
This is the first time I have ever been physically sick reading a news story.
Just to clarify:
"Abandonment of a corpse" is a less-severe charge police use to detain a suspect until they obtain enough evidence to issue a warrant for homicide, which has much more stringent requirements to be met. Witness the Ichihashi case, where he wasn't formally charged with murder until he was finally arrested and basically admitted he was the killer.
Seems unlikely anything but an admission of guilt will stick at this stage...
We get it, you win real life, there isn't a more horrible thing we could possibly imagine without being a danger to ourselves or society.
Ew...very ew
The dates aren't contradictory. They had the child 10 years ago who died 5-6 years ago, which means the child was 4-5 years old when he/she died.
Human liquid !
So Gross...
Yum Yum--- who wants to have tonkotsu ramen using the bones?
*Slurp*
XD
Yum Yum who fancies having tonkotsu ramen using the bones?
*Slurp*
Ewwwwww...
Obviously the guy is in some kind of mission to resurrect his child, that's why he was trespassing that University, had no address etc. It's like the plot of an anime.
Can someone please check him if he's missing a limb or any internal organs?
Human trasmutation?!
Miskatonic University?
dear anon, i love you. lets go to arkham and be happy there for fucking eternity.
Hop in the Mad-van!
Mu's football team is unbeatable...well it has been beaten but spontaneously combusted before they could be given credit so MU won by default.
I'm onboard with this theory. Human transmutation was definitely his goal. Just needed to transmute the woman's dorm into a fresh philosophers stone so he could transmute baby-soup back into a baby. He was so close and yet so far...
That a lot of stinking when it open the plastic case. He should have put it somewhere else in one place if he really wants it not carry it.
mmmm, baby soup. Some Chinese eat babies to supposedly better their health. Watch the "Dumplings" horror mini-movie in the series "Three Extremes". I believe there are still cannibals out there. I don't think a fermented child would mature in taste though.
"Baby soup" is fake, in fact it's made by Chinese performance artists. But it's true that some people in China eat human placenta.
There's the old Chinese legend about baby soup:
The guy eats with some (supposedly vegetarian) monks, who appear to serve a baby in soup. He's horrified and doesn't eat any, and afterward they tell him it was actually a rare medicinal root that grants eternal youth.
Comes from Ken Hom, so take it with a dash of soy sauce.
why don't us, just leave him be. Its just a preference between them and us who don't fully understand them.
especially because he even kept it safely in a plastic sheets so that they don't have to smell it. the janitor/police should not have been opened it...
or/and perhaps he was just influenced by the numerous movies dramas etc. Id understand that part..
What the Fuck, that is the strangest story I have ever heard. This guy obviously had troouble letting go of the past.
Great! I'm just about to eat and I read this....
Poor kid though. And poor parent too. I think he needs help...
am I getting it right that he was basically homeless, or a vagrant?
Perhaps he didn't want to bury it just anywhere, and spots at cemeteries actually cost money, which he didn't seem to have a lot of.
so he kept the child with him.
also... the child's mother seemed to be okay with this.. since she seems to be the one that had it pickled. :\
Liquified Child: IT'S (not) AWWWWRIGHT!!
Maybe he put it in a blender like that BABY FUCK guy.
Shit, I had the same idea.
Like that who?
Some white president guy in Mai-chan's Daily Life by Uziga Waita...
God that just aint right, sure you can be sorrowful about the kid but carry the remains around
WTF?!
I lost my fucking appetite when I read this
Uh-oh! Spa"gore"ttios!
while I find this horrifing I do see where someone could loose their marbles after the death of a child
What the shit, seriously o_o
Some Japanese can't handle death of a child.
Well, children are becoming a rarity. They don't reproduce, then they take their lolis away, then they take their loli doujin away... What can a man do?
Oh yeah?
Imagine you see a drink vendor on the street. He doesn't seem to be doing well, you want to help him out and order one glass.
It's an awful drink. You ask:"What the hell is this." He answers:
"It's my son.
I refined him so that you could taste him.
How does it feel, drinking a child?
HOW WAS IT!?"
Admittedly, I'd probably make those bugged out higurashi no naku koro ni eyes, and be ruined for life.
If that happens to me, I'd tear the guy's eyes out of his skull and force him down his throat if he somehow survives.
Which ofc would feel very awkward when someone says "surprise, hidden camera".
What's with the comment? He's not saying that people can't handle liquified dead children.
Man, I just watched the X-Files yesterday where the killer liquifies his victims with his stomach acid.
X-files is epic lawlz.
That's insane... This "sudden" death also seems suspicious to me. Or maybe they are just weirdos... You usually don't keep a corpse with you, and certainly not in a bagpack.
Maybe it died being wrapped in plastic sheeting.
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome is not so very uncommon ( http://dying.about.com/od/pediatriccare/tp/leading_causes_infant_death.htm ) although that does not even remotely explain why the fuck he carried the corpse in his freakin backpag...
The SIDS killing his kid might have driven him nutso.
SIDS is just the doctor's way of being lazy and not knowing what the hell really happened to the baby.
There was a killer by the name of Waneta Hoyt who killed 5 of her babies which a doctor actually said was SIDS. And the doctor went on to publish this crap in a journal completely fucking over the SIDS research for years.
And I suppose you have 10+ years doctorate in medicine? No? Then don't pretend to know better than the people who do.
Good luck with that autopsy.
How are the dates contradictory?
'Had a child 10 years ago, that died 5-6 years ago'
It was 4 or 5 at the time. That makes perfect sense, Artefact.
Some reports called it a "baby." It's really not clear either way.
Not very good at aritmetic I presume.
Technology, dude.
Kid died, and he asked for the remains from the mother. Instead of throwing them in the dirt like christians or throwing them into a river or something he kept it with him.
It's really not as "disturbing" or as "awful" as it was made out to be..
Spoon autopsy!
I laughed at that... Does that make me bad...? :(
My thoughts indeed...
Even most dreadful horror movies can't compete with what sometimes happens in real life.
I can only imagine how those policemen felt by opening it.
I would have puked.
Takashii Mike sure have some material here...
It's scary to think that Darkrockslizer is so right about this. The horror industry obviously isn't being imaginative enough.
I would have tasted it to made sure it was soup...then I would puke.
@BlaqCat
Mōryō no Hako
So if carrying just ashes makes it "bad" mental health, what would that make this?
I love your picture with the statement.
Let's add school days. Makoto anyone?
nice boat...
And they are liquified too!!!
lol, it'd been forever since I thought 'nice boat'
Photos, I want photos... really, just curious about how a body can be "liquefied".
hey! I remembered of CSI reading this article. There's one episode where they find a liquefied body in a bag. Sara does the autopsy and becomes so stinky that she loses a date. XD
He turned into LCL... watched to much Evangelion
@anon 22:28 Your kiddin right??? You mean you don't know that if you lock up a body in an inclosed space for a long period of time that it will putrify to the point of liquid? Jeeeezzz, learn to use google, or go to a library....
i always carry millions of my child in my balls.
You'd get a fatal infection for sure...
Oh god....I just lost my appetite... for everything liquefied...period
Nice Soup.
Just replace "liquified" with "ashes" and it would seem far less creepy, though a sure-fire signal of bad mental health.
It's like the ending of School Days, only with soup instead of a head.
I just wonder if it's really his child. I somehow doubt it...
I guess he loved that child so much that he kept carrying the... "corpse?" around him wherever he went. Just that it became a tad bit hard to carry, so he decided to make a soup of him.
"Hey son, let's make a soup out of you so it'll get easier for me to carry you!", said the old man to his dead son.
Coroner, "The body of the victim appears to be in a liquified state. *slurp* Tastes like chicken."
What autopsy?
Sir, in order to place charges we must find out why this juice box died.
No picture of a liquefied baby? I'm disappointed, Artefact.
i on the other hand applaud the lack of pictures
