A Murder That Shook an Alliance // Yoshie Sato Jun 08, 2026

Show notes

On January 3, 2006, 56-year-old Yoshie Sato left her home in Yokosuka, Japan, and headed to work just as she had countless times before. However, she never arrived.

What began as a violent robbery quickly became one of the most high-profile crimes involving a U.S. servicemember stationed overseas. The man responsible was William Oliver Reese, a 21-year-old sailor assigned to the USS Kitty Hawk.

In this episode, Margot examines the life of Yoshie Sato, the investigation that led authorities to her killer, the courtroom battle that followed, and the lasting impact one senseless act of violence had on a grieving family and two allied nations.
