Carita Ridgeway from Australia and Lucie Blackman from England arrived in Japan eight years apart, both working as hostesses, earning $150-$400 a night while entertaining wealthy businessmen. At 21, both planned to make money for world travel but encountered Joji Obara, a sadistic criminal mastermind. While there were hundreds of victims assaulted by Obara, they were the only ones known to have lost their lives.

Tokion Roppongin alueella työskennellyt englantilainen Lucie Blackman katosi 1. heinäkuuta vuonna 2000. Hänen tapauksensa tutkimusten paljastama seksuaalirikosten vyyhti kulminoitui mieheen nimeltä Joji Obara, joka oli huumannut ja seksuaalisesti pahoinpidellyt hostess-klubeilla työskennelleitä naisia jo pitkään. Obara sai Lucieta ja yhdeksää muuta naista kohtaan tekemistään rikoksista elinikäisen tuomion, mutta todellisuudessa hänellä uskotaan olleen satoja uhreja.

In this gripping episode, we delve into the tragic case of Lucie Blackman, a 21-year-old British woman who disappeared in Tokyo in 2000. Lucie's story begins with her adventurous spirit and decision to work as a hostess in Japan, but it soon takes a sinister turn. Intro clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8Ucqpxspzw
**CONTENT WARNING: RAPE, SEXUAL ASSAULT** In this episode Becky & Merie wade into the murky waters of Japanese hostess culture and dive into Lucie Blackman's terrifying disappearance that led to a serial rapist who preyed on women for decades and an unexpected resolution to Carita Ridgeway's cold case. Along the way, they address the burning questions you didn't know you had, like: Can you die from…mothball fumes? Does Becky have a verb in that sentence or does Merie have an arm growing out of her back? Which one of your hosts is destined to listen to a book on tape while checking…MapQuest? Based on evidence, is Becky or Merie your…grandma?!

Lucie Blackman was 21 when she disappeared after moving to Tokyo, Japan from Kent, England. Women like Lucie, who were a part of the Tokyo nightlife and hostess community, had been going to police for years to report being drugged and assaulted. They were largely ignored. Meg details how several cases, including Lucie's, finally came together and allowed the perpetrator, Japanese millionaire, Joji Obara, to be put behind bars forever.
Imagine the neon glow of Tokyo's nightlife hiding a sinister secret that ensnares the unwary. That's where we take you in our latest episode, as we unravel the tragic tale of Carita Bridgway, an Australian whose dreams were shattered amid the enigmatic world of Japan's hostess clubs. We dissect a puzzling narrative full of dubious characters and questionable claims – like a severe shellfish allergy leading to a young woman's hospitalization – all while paying tribute to a life that ended far too soon.The plot thickens with the heart-wrenching disappearance of Lucie Blackman, a parallel story that exposes the perils facing foreign hostesses in Tokyo. We share the frustration and fear that consumed Lucie's family as they battled cultural barriers and elusive authorities, piecing together the unnerving details of a cult-related phone call and the frantic search that ensued. The desperation of Lucie's loved ones in their fight for answers brings a sobering reality to the forefront of our discussion.Our spotlight then shifts to Joji Obara, a man whose dark deeds surfaced in a narrative resembling a crime novel. His arrest peeled back a curtain to reveal a cache of evidence – videotapes, journals, and the harrowing accounts of over 200 victims. As we navigate through the twists and turns of his legal battles, the harrowing journey of Lucie's family and their painful pursuit of justice culminates our episode with a call for systemic change. Join us as we raise our glasses not only in memory of those lost but also in hope for a future where such tragedies are relics of the past.Sources:https://www.moviemaker.com/carita-ridgway-missing-the-lucie-blackman-case/https://www.google.com/search?q=1+million+yen+in+us+dollars&oq=1+million+yen&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgCEAAYgAQyBwgAEAAYgAQyDAgBEEUYORixAxiABDIHCAIQABiABDIHCAMQABiABDIHCAQQABiABDIHCAUQABiABDIHCAYQABiABDIHCAcQABiABDIHCAgQABiABDIHCAkQABiABDIHCAoQABiABDIHCAsQABiABDIHCAwQABiABDIHCA0QABiABDIHCA4QABiABNIBCDY0MTVqMGo3qAIAsAIA&client=ms-android-att-us-rvc3&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derry_Irvine,_Baron_Irvine_of_Lairghttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Chancellorhttps://www.evidencelockerpodcast.com/transcripts/transcript-11-the-hostess-murders-joji-obara-japanhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joji_Obarahttps://www.the-sun.com/news/8700456/carita-ridgway-who-what-happened/Support the showhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/1336304093519465https://twitter.com/Murder_Mimosashttps://www.instagram.com/murder.mimosas/murder.mimosas@gmail.comhttps://uppbeat.io/t/the-wayward-hearts/a-calm-hellfire License code: ZJZ99QK39IWFF0FB

In 2000, Lucie Blackman, 21, vanished while living in Tokyo and working as a hostess, sparking an international investigation. Seven months after she went missing, her body was found buried in a cave. In addition to Lucie, the police discovered another woman about a decade earlier had the same fate. The police named Joji Obara as a suspect in both cases and eventually tied him to approximately 200 rape victims as well.Sources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joji_Obarahttps://www.radiotimes.com/tv/documentaries/lucie-blackman-true-story-netflix-missing/https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-reviews/missing-the-lucie-blackman-case-netflix-doc-tokyo-japan-joji-obara-rape-murder-1234794542/https://www.womenshealthmag.com/life/a44661790/was-lucie-blackman-found-missing-the-lucie-blackman-case/Follow us on:Instagram @themurdermamasTwitter @themurdermamasFacebook @TheMMamasTic Tok @themurdermamas2Email themurdermamas@gmail.comThinking about starting your own podcast?

Subscriber-only episodeA good true crime documentary is always one with a lot of twists and turns and is always thought provoking. Recently I watched one on Netflix that covered The Lucie Blackman case which I hadn't heard of, but the story and the way the filmmakers presented it is very well done. Personally I don't watch a ton of them, just because I'm pretty immersed in True Crime on a weekly basis so when it's time to chill I'm looking to do some Barbenhimer types of viewing. But I wanted to at least let you guys know about Lucies Story as well as a few other true crime documentaries that you may want to check out.
In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, we are talking about the Netflix documentary “Missing: The Lucie Blackman Case," out now on Netflix. Host Rebecca Lavoie interviews director Hyoe Yamamoto and producer Rob Sixsmith. Lucie Blackman left her life in England for new experiences in Japan, working as a hostess in a Tokyo nightclub. But her disappearance in 2000 sent shock waves through both nations. Her father launched a media blitz to pressure Japanese authorities; meanwhile, authorities learn a sexual predator has been preying on women undetected for years. “Missing: The Lucie Blackman Case” explores the desperate manhunt and the clash of cultures that resulted. Will Tokyo detectives find the criminal believed to have victimized hundreds of women…and answer the question of what happened to Lucie? SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched “Missing: The Lucie Blackman Case" yet, make sure to add it to your watch-list before listening on.
El 4 de mayo de 2000 Lucie Blackman, de 21 años y su amiga Louise Phillips, de la misma edad viajan a Tokio después de renunciar a sus trabajos como azafatas en British Airways para viajar por Asia. Alquilaron una habitación en el primer piso de una casa de huéspedes cerca del Estadio Olímpico de Tokio y, a pesar de solo tener visa de turista, consiguen trabajo en el bar Casablanca, en el distrito Roppongi de Tokio. Al igual que miles de otros clubes en Japón, el nuevo lugar de trabajo de Lucie requería que sus anfitrionas tuvieran citas con los clientes. El 1 de julio de 2000 le contó a su amiga que iba a salir con un hombre, con quien ya había salido antes y afirmó que él le había regalado un teléfono móvil y una botella de champán Dom Pérignon.
When 21-year old British Air hostess Lucie Blackman left her life in London to move to Tokyo for an adventurous year of exploration, her parents and friends never imagined that just three weeks later, she would vanish without a trace. Missing: The Lucie Blackman Case is an intricate international investigation to find Lucie, led by a team of tenacious Japanese detectives. This gripping Netflix true crime feature is told both through the fascinating inside track of the investigation - as well as the emotional lens of Lucie's father who never gives up on finding his daughter. Retired FBI special agent and podcast host Jodi Weber joins Kate to discuss the case.

In 2000, Briton Lucie Blackman went to Tokyo, Japan with her best friend. They planned to get jobs as nightclub hostesses for a few months, make enough money to pay off some debts, and have some savings left when they returned home. But they were unaware of what was lurking in the shadows. Lucie's disappearance set off a frantic search by her family and friends, and the evil they uncovered rocked an entire nation.
Kate discusses what to watch this week including The Golden Boy (HBO), Missing: The Lucie Blackman Case (Netflix), The Heiress and the Heist (Sundance Now and AMC+), and Big Brother 25th Anniversary Celebration.
