Nicola Furlong was an Irish exchange student in Japan who was found dead on May 24 in Tokyo just after a concert by Nicki Minaj.
Police arrested two Americans, one 19 year old Richard Hinds and the other 23-year-old dancer James Jamari Blackston who allegedly gave drinks to her friend Sarah Maher. Later Hinds confessed to police that he strangled Furlong after he raped her. In June 2012 family members of Nicola Furlong came to Japan to take her body back to her homeland. Nicola Furlong and her friend were drugged, kidnapped (forced into a taxi), sexually assaulted in the taxi, and then taken to the Keio Hotel Tokyo where the hotel broke local Japanese law by allowing non-registered guests into the rooms at night, and assisted the kidnappers by giving them a wheelchair to take the comatose girls to the room, where they were raped and one murdered. In August 2012 they plead guilty.
Buried in St. Margaret's Church Cemetery, Curracloe.
