TOKYO (AFP): A Japanese death-row inmate, dubbed the "Black Widow" after she used cyanide to kill her elderly lovers, has died in a detention centre at age 78, officials said on Friday.
Chisako Kakehi was sentenced to death for the murder of three men, including her husband, and the attempted murder of another man about a decade ago in a case that gripped Japan.
