Yeah the husband was arrested for drug possession.

She apparently turned her phone on once last night and they tracked the signal to Yamanashi which is leading people to think she's headed to Jukai which is a popular place to commit suicide...

Oh gawd, this is terrible news.

If suicide ends up being the cause I wonder what she was going through that would make her do so. I hope that they find her. Sad

There are two different cases in the Japanese headlines this week. The case involving Noriko Sakai's husband is different from the case involving Manabu Oshio. Oshio, not Sakai's husband, is the one who is allegedly connected to the discovery of a dead woman.

Yeah I just realized I got that confused. I was going to edit my post (again..)
That case is pretty strange as well though.

This incident really sucks. I don't like what I heard at all. I really like her songs, I hope she`s all right.

i have a idea, maybe she was kidnapped by some deranged(forgive my spelling) stalker or some crazy fan boy. Ether way, one of those possiblities still exist, just look at Mariah Carey's Obessed music video, its probaly like that except that the stalker kidnapped her.
Anyhow dont worry people, she's bound to pop up somewhere, im putting my money on akibahara.

No this doesn't seem to be a crazed fan. It seems like she left on her own and made sure that her son was safe. It's possible that she left the house and something happened to her but considering she turned her cell phone on I think she might be on her own.

any smart kidnapper would've turned off her phone/thrown it out too, so that's irreverent. however, leaving her song in the care of her friend is basically evidence she left on her own.

a) her man got pinched for illegal substances

b) she left her son in the care of a friend

c) her phone's off

Sounds to me like she got taken for a ride ya know? Maybe payin off a few debts her husband racked up...might pop up missin' a pinky..
