Unit 731 Episode 3: The Diarrhea Is Increasing

What happens when one of the most horrifying secret programs of World War II is finally exposed, and many of the people responsible manage to walk away?

In this episode of Torture: A Dark History, Kevin Young and Dan Hourigan bring the story of Unit 731 to its conclusion. We’ll follow the organization’s final days as the Soviet invasion of Manchuria forces its members to destroy evidence and flee, before examining what happened to Shiro Ishii and others after the war.

We’ll look at the Allied investigations, the Soviet trials, the controversial decisions that allowed many of those involved to avoid prosecution, and the disturbing postwar lives of people connected to Unit 731.

And because this is Torture: A Dark History, Kevin and Dan bring their own dark and twisted humor to the final chapter of one of World War II’s most horrifying stories.

If you’re interested in Unit 731, Japanese war crimes, World War II, biological warfare, war crimes trials, and the dark history left behind after the war, this is where the nightmare finally comes to an end.
