I swear that place is just around the corner from my apartment! It's also right next to a fire station, and across the street from a big police station (not one of those "koban"). The suspect previously went to jail for seven years after stabbing and killing a policeman. No joke.

They always charge a murder suspect with abandoning the corpse first, it's easier to prove and allows them to incarcerate the suspect. Murder charges come later after they've had a chance to build their case.

Notice that the word "talent" is in quotations. Even the staff at JT know there's not much real talent there (and not just her). How much talent can it take to let people take pictures of your body?

This sounds more like a "suicidal gesture" than an actual attempt to me. The difference being, people who really want to die usually do, like those who jump in front of trains here. A "gesture" is more of a cry for help. When you tell somebody where you are and what you are going to do, then make non-lethal wrist cuts, you are setting yourself up for rescue. She didn't expect to die.

Don't be in a hurry to go to the new stores. When the other stores opened (like in Tachikawa) , the lines were INSANE! Imagine waiting for hours just to get a doughnut.
