Hiroshi Maeue, 38, agreed to a death pact with a 25-year-old office worker he met on a suicide website, but instead strangled her in a parked car and disposed of her body in western Japan in 2005, according to a police statement.
He also killed a 14-year-old boy and a 21-year-old university student in the same year by luring them with promises of a suicide pact, police said.
