Would you kill someone close to you just to get their life insurance payout?
Most of us wouldn't.
We could not even imagine how cruel one has to be to murder someone close for money.
But that was exactly what happened in Japan.
The Black Widow
A Japanese woman name Chisako Kakehi, known by the Japanese media as 'Black Widow'.
Nope, Chisako is not a secret agent.
She just dates and marries men who were old, sickly, and rich.
After the men named Chisako as the sole beneficiary of their assets and insurance plan, she would poison these men to death.
She then proceeds to take possession of their wealth, as well as their insurance payouts, making her a multi-millionaire in the process.
In 20 years, she amassed 800 million yen (approximately USD 6.8 million) in inheritance and insurance payout.
