The Horrific Legacy of Shiro Ishii: Leader of Japan's Unit 731
Shiro Ishi was a Japanese microbiologist and physician who led Japan's infamous unit 731 during World War Two.
Unit 731 was a secret biological and chemical warfare research and development unit that carried out thousands of horrific experiments on humans.
These experiments included exposing people to biological and chemical agents, vivisection without anesthesia, freezing body parts, and much more.
Ishi was known for experimenting with the most deadly diseases in history.
He would genetically alter the bubonic plague.
Would be much more lethal than inject that plague into fleas and release those fleas into Chinese villages.
On one occurrence, Shiroishi gave Candy to his workers and told them to hand out the sweets to children in the villages.
While Chinese villagers interpreted this as an act of kindness, the candy was actually laced with anthrax.
After the war, ISHI was granted immunity from prosecution by the United States in exchange for the data he had collected during his experiments.
He went on to live a relatively comfortable life and died in 1959.
