Police
say around 100 women in Japan who thought they were participating in a
sleep study were actually drugged and raped, their attacks recorded and
sold to porn sites.
Authorities
arrested 54-year-old Hideyuki Noguchi, after one of the women saw
herself in a video. Police investigated and arrested Noguchi, who now
faces charges of incapacitated rape in some three dozen cases.
Authorities say Noguchi has told them the number of victims is about 100.
The
assaults allegedly began in 2012 when police say Noguchi took out an ad
seeking participants for a sleep study. The ad sought women from their
teens through their 40s.
But
authorities say Noguchi has no medical training and the study was merely
a ruse to isolate women, drug them, assault them and film the attacks.
Police say Noguchi sold the videos to porn sites, making around $100,000.
