By the way,

 

In 2004, moritomo’s ex-wife (Maria) committed mass suicide (total:7 people). In the car…

There was briquette in the car. Therefore, their cause of death was identified as carbon monoxide poisoning. Maria was looking for some partners for a suicide-pact on a message board. And then, she did it.

 

It was such a shocking case.

An ex-wife (Maria) of the vocal of the extreme popularity rock band died by her own hand. And it was strange. Why did she…?

 

In fact, they have a child. They divorced soon after a baby was born. Because she had some problems…her multiple personalities.

She was assaulted in a childhood by her father (child abuse, sexual assault, etc). As a result, she was deeply saddened and hurt…

 

She had to change herself. If not so, she wasn’t able to live…

She had a diagnosis of  “12 multiplex men of integrity” at a hospital.

 

They got divorced in the end. But custody of the child was a problem. It was decided that Moritomo brought up the child.

After that , she found a new partner and married again in 2003. But the husband used domestic violence.

 

They lived apart immediately. She begins a new life with a 5 -month-old child but …her multiple personalities appeared again.

And October, 2004 (Day of the fate), she who lost power to live for did away with herself.

 

 


 

Maria left a child with facilities right before she died. And she left a message for her dearest children.

 

“I’m sorry. Though I’ll die,  mother was happy because of you.”

 

Didn’t  anyone can save her of the childhood period?

 

Too sad…
