We have cops that raped and killed that are allowed resign to change jurisdictions and work as a cop in the US and im supposed to be mad at a guy that left the US and is supporting himself playing piano which is hard to do?

Edit: this fool works with children. I don't support that.

Japan has the death penalty why didn't they use it

This wasn't a botched robbery this was cold blooded with no remorse

A bit of cultural nuance is lacking in this thread.

He was a child at the time of the incident, so as a child he was given leeway in sentencing. Had he been one year older, then the sentence would have been much harsher.


The age of majority is 20 in japan. Its a huge thing in their society, with its own name "hatachi" and a festival for new adults symbolizing full maturity. Even moreso than the age of adulthood is here. So at 19 in jp, he was treated the same way a 17 or 16 year old would he treated in an American system.

Furthermore, Their system (and many progressive systems around the world) isnt about throwing people under jails , but fixing them. They didn't treat him differently due to his Americanness . But in the Japanese context , he would have had rehabilitation and job placement after his term. They got an insanely low reoffending rate because they actually fix people in japan. Even moreso when someone is a child (by their definition)

He wasn’t a “child” and even if he was below 16 or 14 :camby: you knew what you’re doing with that level of sadism

huh

well ok then

if Japan fine with it what imma do about it over here in America

deal with him if he commits another crime. if he actually doesn't... then i guess the best possible outcome considering a terrible act was reached. I'm REAL dubious on sex crimes though. People that do that shyt I feel are most likely to reoffend

Sick nikkas are everywhere on this forum just like in the real world

Make it make sense
RIP to that young woman
This is very frightening. You can know someone for years or think they are a cool breh, not knowing they are sick rapists and murders, or at the very least have had those thoughts.

If this was my daughter, I don’t know if I could find peace with this answer.

he served his time and paid the price given to him.

what are y'all asking for?
americans have gotten accustomed to being insanely punitive.
