He enticed he to his apartment then raped her and kills her to keep her quiet ??? this to me is premeditated.
Then there is this bath tub, where did he get all the sand and for what did he intend to do with it? start a farm on the balcony? Premeditated I think.
The Death sentence is appropriate.

Best thing for these guys is community service for a month or so in the disaster stricken areas.
They will soon learn a thing or two and why the box was put there in the first place.

sushisake3 do you know what "Geothermal energy" is? I lived in Japan for twenty years and could not understand why Japan never tried it! then again if you don't know about "Geothermal energy" Then maybe Japan doesn't either.

SushiSake3 Maybe I am missing something, but don't they uses fresh water to cool down reactors? if they are desalinating sea water, then they could pump fresh water from the desalination plant to a safer nuclear plant location and if there is no safe location drill for "Geothermal energy"! The Fukushima plant is dead and can never be used again. The big question is What is TEPCO's end goal to this cruises? Cooling down the plant is only the first stage, then what??

If coring for soil samples was done before the Daiichi Fukushima nuclear plant was built and for the others for that matter, there is a high probability that the core samples would have shown evidence of Tsunamis long ago.
This time the Tsunami reached 5km inland,building a Nuclear plant right on the shores of a country that is known for earthquakes is negligent,(10M walls we now know don't work against a huge volume of water moving at 450km per hour.
Japan has the best natural energy resources next to Iceland "Geothermal energy"! If TEPCO or the Japanese government say it is to expensive to tap into! Look at the price they are paying now.

Holland has it right but the rest of the world are still figuring it out. Mexico needs to legalize soft drugs like marijuana and it might make the USA think a little. They keep saying God Bless America the land of the free, then why ban gods creation??

Me and my friend where getting of the train in Shibuya I think it was when he suddenly disappeared in front of me! one leg went between the train and platform.
What was frightening was that people where trying to get off and on when I was desperately pulling him up in between all this rush.
It would save a lot of grief if the trains DID have a plat that filled the gap when the doors opened they would only need to be 10cm in width.

The Pirates are very good at what they do, they use mother ship to get further out to sea and then launch their attack boats.
When and if they get spotted by any navy all they do is throw their weapons overboard and put out fishing lines.
You can't arrest fishermen fishing in international waters.
The reason that piracy is more prevalent now is because of the North westerly winds which bring much calmer waters then the South east winds.
My question is why are the superpowers ignoring Somalia when they know it is also a nesting ground for terrorists equal to Afghanistan and Pakistan boarder mountains.
Again WHY is the UN security council failing when it comes to Somalia???
