Sugamo Prison- Echoes of the Yokohama Verdicts

Step into the postwar shadows of Sugamo Prison—the Tokyo site where Class B & C Japanese war criminals from the Yokohama trials were confined (1945–1958). From propaganda-laced appeals to Cold War clemency drives, this story tracks how punishment, politics, and memory collided. Sunshine 60 now towers where gallows once stood—while a quiet monument still pleads: “Praying for Eternal Peace.” Key Highlights 🏛️ Prison & Verdicts — Who was held at Sugamo and what the Yokohama convictions meant. ⚖️ Classes of Guilt — Class B/C vs. Class A and why those distinctions mattered. 🗞️ Narratives in Conflict — Propaganda casting inmates as victims vs. accounts of strict but fair custody. 🧾 Clemency & Parole — Early-1950s petitions, sentence reductions, and Cold War politics. 🗿 Legacy & Memory — Prison demolished, Sunshine 60 built, memorial remains.
