In October 2001, Togame met with the families of 9/11 victims. After a brief interview in which she expressed her condolences and hope for closure, she reportedly burst out laughing and made airplane noises and mimicked two planes crashing. She then picked up the child of a deceased victim and whispered into her ear "Your dad's dead, ♥♥♥♥♥", and proceeded to put on a pair of sunglasses and unleash a barrage of martial arts attack on the small child. The child was rushed to the hospital where she was pronounced dead due to extreme trauma. When asked later about the incident, Togame became visibly sexually aroused and repeated the same attack on the reporter.
