Man arrested over death of girlfriend at his Tokyo apartment

He killed someone because he didn’t like the temperature? I wonder if they’ll make as big an example of this guy as they do with people who get caught with a tiny amount of illegal substances. I wonder if senseless violence is more of a priority for law enforcement than someone getting high once.

They don’t have air con or heating at most of the prisons in Japan, he can argue with & punch the wall when he doesn’t like the room temp. He should have the rest of his life in prison & can argue with the wall every day.

Thermal incompatibility fortunately doesn’t lead to murder that often, but it can be terribly destructive to a relationship.

Couples would be wise to give this topic careful consideration along with money, children, religion, sex drive, diet, and cleanliness.

I disagree! There is no excuse for murder.

Don’t mess with a guys air conditioner the guy snapped. In the office the ladies always make it so dang hot.

The murder and violent crime rate increases with hot weather. More murders occur during the summer season.

Sad tragic case with a young woman losing her life for nothing.

I disagree! There is no excuse for murder.

Did I claim that it was an excuse for murder?

Or did I write that it “can be terribly destructive to a relationship” — as can falsely attributing statements or beliefs to someone, which is obviously your issue.

Dan the Strawman!

Strawman

I see this one on social media all the time. It's misrepresenting the argument of the other side to make it seem more ridiculous, and therefore easy to defeat. Think of someone who puts forth a nuanced argument that excessive sugar intake may raise the risk of health issues like heart disease. A strawman response would be, "Oh, so what, sugar is killing everyone and should be outlawed? That's absurd!" This distorts the original argument, making it easier to defeat – a strawman.

Killed her because of the room temperature?!

What an idiot!

Rest in Peace to the innocent young woman, her whole life ahead of her.

I hope the animal who did this dies in prison.

A life sentence without parole suits him. No need to have this guy back into society.

"We got into an argument over the temperature of the room and I punched her in the face."

Sounds like a real winner................

And he's single now, ladies!

Poor Yui San, may your soul find eternal peace. In any young relationship if a guy doesn't treat you like Gongju- mama it's not worth dying for.

kazuko, agree never any excuse for murder in a sound minded person. But also agree on the temperature considerations, I do not use a/c (prefer duhumids and fan, heat index stuff) done year in M.E before, yep here accounting depts set a/c @ 22C, some comical exchanges...nobody got stabbed, pm I did the site visits, car a/c always 27C, deters any incompatible female companions, and fully hygenic depending on showers and laundry found my ideal female companion in .... somewhare near kyoto. too much misdirection guys trying to scor epoints of each other? the female disagreed an he beat her to death 'cos he was a strongman..verdict please

man arrested over death of girlfriend at his apartment had recently started living with her...

so it was the man's apartment and his girlfriend since 2021 (who wanted to get married before she was 25-years-old) recently moved in and started to take over. 

they had a row about the air-con and he beat her to death, leaving her to die in the hallway, and never even called an ambulance.

verdict? guilty!!

"We got into an argument over the temperature of the room and I punched her in the face."

Well that escalated quickly. Sounds like he did a little more than just punch her in the face.
