In Japan there's no "murder" without a body. Most yakuza murders don't result in found bodies. Therefore Japan's "low homicide rate". Most of these murders aren't reported. Here's an interesting NPR interview with an American crime reporter/author investigating Japanese organized crime: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=120237244 http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=1202372.... Some yakuza boss promised to pay money and inform the FBI on cronies in return for safe entry to/from UCLA for liver (?) transplants for himself and three others. After the transplants he didn't fulfill promises to the FBI. The author broke the story and has suffered consequences.
