If the court-appointed shrink says what the court wants to hear, they listen. If the shrink says something the court doesn't want to hear, they don't listen. Simple.
I'm just wondering why it took them four years to figure this out. That must've been a long battery of psychological tests.
Funny how his name was withheld because found insane... although I bet when he was arrested his name was plastered everywhere (they scream suspect's names from the rooftops) - we just need to hunt the news 4 years ago.
Unbelievable! Of course he's bloody insane! He killed his parents and sister. It took them four years to determine this!?!? Now, he won't hang and he'll live out the rest of his life in a nursing home having all his needs pampered. Nice!
He is going to serve as an advisor to Tsuyoshi Shimakura.
Shimakura is the head of the Shimonoseki city education board in Yamaguchi, who recently told officials of a Korean school that Japan’s 1910-1945 colonial rule of the Korean Peninsula ‘‘contradicts a historical fact,’’
Shima-chan says, ‘‘We cannot accept that because the part about colonial rule contradicts a historical fact,’’ they said.
He'll probably be released next week having been "miraculously" cured. Basically he gets away with 3 murders, and receives no punishment for it. Now thats Justice, Japanese style! Too bad hes not a foreigner, he'd be danging from a noose right about now.

I agree, anyone who murders another person is to some degree insane. He's a danger to society and there's no hope for his rehabilitation (killed his whole family), so he should just be executed. Ridiculous.

I'm confused as to how courts in Japan seem to randomly decide whether to listen to their own appointed psychiatrists or not.

So what happens to him now?
It would seem best that he was invoulentarily committed.
