"How far does he intend to taunt me? It saddens me that a former top prosecutor has no intention of atoning for his crime, and as a prosecutor it is shameful," the subordinate prosecutor said in a statement read out by her lawyer."

Surprised he's pleding not guilty knowing how the system works here with an almost 100% conviction rate.

There's only one way to tell the truth and a million ways to lie. Only problem is when a person lies the lie gets bigger because for every time a person repeats that lie they have to remember what they said. The truth can only be told one way!!

"Nakamura said Kitagawa initially accepted the accusations because he did not want to cause difficulties for relevant parties and prosecutors."

Osaka prosecutors office once fabricated evidences and caused false accusation.
This Ex-top Osaka prosecutor who cruelly continues to trample on heart of victim is also LDP regime's accomplices who did not prosecute Sagawa who ordered to tamper with public documents and cornered civil servants to suicide, still prioritizes benefit or face of corrupted organization than victim about everything.

This is from 2018 and is now being brought to trial? The settlement should be his earnings for the last six years. Take it straight from his retirement income. What else has he been enabled to do for the past six years while this case has been lingering? And what of the poor victim for the past 6 years?

My prediction is that he is found guilty, but receives a suspended sentence.
