The "Tokyo Rose" Trial. Iva Toguri in mug shot. Sugamo Prison, March 7, 1946. Iva Toguri (1916-2006) was a Japanese-American citizen who participated in an English-language propaganda broadcast transmitted by Radio Tokyo to allied soldiers in the South Pacific during World War II. She was charged for treason by the United States Attorney's Office for adhering to, and giving aid to, the Imperial Government of Japan during World War II and went to trial in 1949. Evidence was found that key witnesses lied under oath against Toguri and U.S. President Gerald Ford granted her a full and unconditional pardon in 1977.
