Clearly a very happy day here!
Sounds like the father has a very cool head, bravo considering what he as been thru the last 4yrs. Lets hope this becomes a model case & at some point supervised visits with the mom & J-family take place, in the US. The ex-wife & her family have a awful lot of atoning to do, lets hope they do their part with some honour.
And lets hope Japan gets its sorry sorry act together for all the other cases.
I too hope this sees for air & print time here but havent seen anything yet, anyone else, I wud hate to see this get censored here but wudnt be surprised if it only gets tiny coverage

saw a bit on tv yesterday, it was a bit of a joke, picture a boar in a corner of a yard with those concrete walls & then about 8 keystones piling on, a couple wailing with nite sticks, then stop, start film shows dead boar on ground, pretty lame.
Most in Japan have little concept of cruelty to animals & this is just another example

Home run! Nailed it!
It always amazes me how Japanese can get wound up about the above(understandably so!), but utterly fail to understand its own abducting children of the world & have even less comprehension of the 20-30million it killed 1930-45 & the many that survived the horrors of Japans rampage back then.

This is a recurring story, stalker gets warned, then goes on to kill people we see it on jt etc as a semi regular occurence, so YES they keystones need to do better, CLEARLY, people are getting killed, & more will if nothing changes.
As cricky correctly points out, restraining orders need to be put in place quicker, if the stalker doesnt abid, haul them in, far to many are killed or attacked in this country, even when warning bells are loud as hell!
