Not to bring about mass hysteria, but the Saitama area seems to be the epicenter of crime lately. How many stories on JT are based in Saitama? The JCops may want to have a closer look at the crime rates there and focus on Blue and white collar crime.

The priority of the courts amazes me to no end. Organized crime cases take precidence over local murders on death sentences. In past posts, we have seen grizzly murders that were deemed not to importamt because of mental illness. I would only imagine the defense Shimazu-san and Ito-san will use…

Really now! He was going over to N Korea to support the World Baseball Classic Games. Japan vs Korea. If we lost he was going to plant a korean flag at their stadium and threaten the team captain with a punch in the nose. That is the way to make…

It is too funny to read stories like this, hopefully protesters will hang out in front of the airport. They should find some reason to complain about the dangers of having an airport near populated areas.

Too funny, women actually are on the prowl for financially stable men? Say it isn't so.

The courts should of ordered each of the murders to spend one night in the victims family home. The outcome if they can live or die would be apparent the next morning.

Oh my, they actually have a relative that lives in Japan legally? That is a shocker! What was all the concern in earlier posts of leaving Noriko with strangers all alone in Japan?

I hope she is able to speak tagalog to her aunt or she may have a lot…

The court ruling has been generous enough to extend there stay until they make their decision to leave as a family or leave their daughter here. You can see the pic in the link, how they portray themselves in the courtroom. The sympathy look will not work being guilty of…

It seems like some of the readers have issues with independence, legal issues and probably home life. The thought of the girl having to pay her own ticket is quite comical, the parents would probably dish our the 70,000 yen for the round trip to the Philippines and would probably…
