Prosecutors won't do their work.

They don't work for the people, we should fire them all.

This won't be the last scandal.

One question still be asked, who initially provided the cash that was given to 35 people? Was it from the LDP, and was it originally public money?

3 ( +3 / -0 )

The Kawaiis (and the LDP) are fearful such continued inquests may reveal deeper pockets. Concerns about recent probes may also have been why Anri had a recent ‘health scare’ requiring some ‘medical intervention? Wishing her a speedy recovery and continued good behavior while on ‘probation’.

“…the former justice minister in Jun last year immediately appealed but later retracted, saying "The responsibility is solely on me, and I am ready to accept it all. I ask for leniency on the people who have accepted cash."

Only 35? Another face saving number.
