then...who's the whistle-blower?? It wasn't a raid by the police at the site, and mostly likely the girl won't snitch if she is making money... so?

a 19 youngster, "NOT MAN" as labeled here, being protected as a minor...uses the poor little soul as a punching bag - beating him senselessly. Well - heck, that explains it.

Total tragic...no doubt about it!! Monetary disputes always seem to be the motive among sublings in Japan. And yet the young brother was able to take his own life - after reading many others in similar cases have failed to take commit suicide.

@ jumpultimatestars....
You have GOT to be KIDDING me...!!!! Anyone in such act is clearly with intent to hurt and endanger the welfare of a child. His actions, no matter how brief, is with motive and punishable by any law. I CAN'T believe YOU would even consider the thought of "consistency" here. Please!!!

How about Japanese people cutting in front of you while walking? I mean so close that they cause friction your clothes. It causes me to misstep my pace and even stop in order to prevent any static. But, you watch them among themselves, they rarely cut in, instead they rather run ahead or face pace themselves to give each other their personal space respect. Don't they know we westerners have a more profound personal space. If they intrude, they will get it - period!
Or Japanese with their cell phones stuffed in their faces walking straight at you until they bump and then some.
Care to comment...anyone??

In my opinion, court cases with high ranking officials on the line are a joke. They all keep clowning the tax payers with their displays of trick-o-treat games. No justice will be serve here.

@ DS.....I COULDN'T HAVE SAID IT BETTER!! It all starts with fundamentals at home. My teenage boys have Wii, DS and i-pod games. They were told over and over again (till they tired of hearing it...) what the specifics and rules were from the get-go! During meals we enjoy daily chats from school to work to club and so on. Granted not all days are the same. We often watch a TV program where we ALL GET INVOLVE. During weekdays, we keep our boys between cram school and club activities. Weekends are their "stay-to-play" virtual game time and yet they decide to hit their club activites. So, YES, parents influence DOES make a difference!!

Back in the day...( 70's in NYC), we were bee-boppers...group of three (or four) vandalizing any hood and blame it on other turf gangs to cause a breakout street fight. Cops weren't doing a THING about it...so we ruled, but we NEVER - NEVER picked on and abused the Old nor women with kids. Granted - it was FLAT WRONG of us, but THAT was the life then. If we ever hurt or even come close to hurting the Old or women with kids...., POOR YOU - you get a beating from your own gang that would last weeks to bounce back. Now, I read this. No respect!! I'm the character type that I gave WAY to the elderly around me, and make SURE others do likewise!! Sick and tired of these locals wording out the have manners and respect, but never practice what they preach. Here...in Japan, it's only worse before it gets better. Seen it happen many times. I got boys of my own and I most definitely teach them respect and manners to the elderly - no exceptions. My pops did the same and so did Granpop! It all starts home. Today, these punks actout they too cool for school....erase my case!

How often was the boy complaining about his eye? The boy had an existing eye condition during that time. In my opinion, the mother must have known the poor boy was acking from pain!! Did she even bothered checking the odor or expiration date?? Obviously not. He needs to flush down his throat battery acid and have a taste of what the poor little one went through.... Beasts - is what these parents are!! Hate - hate - hate...it's always the same song and dance here!!

Why label her "unemployed"?? We have two, and it ain't no picnic or walk in the park. It's a 24/7 full time - no exceptions job. But loosing your head over a vomit, THAT'S a bit extreme! What!?? she can't handle a little mess and clean afterwards?? We got bigger problems to sweat....food, clothing, medicine, schooling, clubs (if any)!! Geez, I can't stand how these press writers keep decorating stories with nonsense words!!

When a Japanese mother decides take a few monthst vacation with her kids, leaving the husband behind with his workplace duties and what-nots, and then after several months he calls up to check on them as he routinely does only to hear his wife say "Umm, honey, eh...I don't know how to put this but, I'm not coming back...." Lets say for argument sake, he decides to resign his job, sell all belongings (house, household goods, the works...) just to prevent himself from becoming totally destructive towards his wife's insipid decision and giantly leaps across the vast Pacific just to rejoin and rejoice with his kids. Bear in mind, he is to inner grate in a land of no knowledge regarding language, customary habits, wheelings-and-dealings, beliefs, etc. After several years, he notices this is not for him but can't leave the kids behind...what then? Anyone care to elaborate....?
