The Senseless & Savage Murder of Mikiko Kasahara

In December of 2002, Japanese exchange student Mikiko Kasahara was excited to have completed her freshman year at Texas Lutheran University in Seguin, Texas. She acclimated to her new environment well, made several close friends, and was excelling academically. On the night of the 13th, Mikiko through a celebration party for her and her friends’ accomplishments – a low key get-together with just a few fellow students. The following morning, after everyone left her home, Mikiko’s apartment went up in flames. When the smoke cleared, the 21-year-old coed’s body was inside, charred beyond recognition. Though the Seguin Police painstakingly looked for evidence that pointed to the identity of the monster who savagely slayed Mikiko Kasahara, and worked the case for many years to come, it remains unsolved.
