180. Lindsay Ann Hawker: No Way Out - Tragedy and Terror in Tokyo, Japan


Listen Later

When 22-year-old Lindsay Ann Hawker moved to Japan in late 2006 to teach English, she never imagined the danger that would follow her. A man claimed to be her student, chased her home, and then he went undetected for two years after the crime. Everyone was looking for his face, but there's a wild reason they wouldn't have even known if they were right beside him.
Let’s get into the horrifying case of a bright young woman whose life was stolen, and how her family went through years of more heartache and questions as they pursued justice for their daughter and sister.
