I have heard they are pretty harsh here, no heat and AC for starters. Pre-trial, I have heard they keep you awake to try and get you to confess and interrogate you for hours on end with no lawyer. That's the reason for the 99% conviction rate. In the US inmates have internet, can enjoy painting, lifting weights, get to go outside in the yard. Some prisons have a choir and put on plays. etc. Not sure they have that here. Anyway. I wouldn't want to be in either one. Yes, he will go to prison.

Too bad he won’t be going to a real prison, like in the US.

Yet another piece of crooked timber twisted by uncontrollable urges. Such a senseless killing should remind us that murder is a tragedy that befalls both the innocent victim and even the wretched perpetrator driven and harried by his terrifying demons. Revenge for taking a life is a powerful emotion, but lives ruined and the circle of suffering and grief will only be amplified by the application of the death penalty which can never give back the poor woman's life to her loved ones.

That's pretty sexist, don't you think? Especially in this day and age of high divorce rates leaving kids fatherless, I think kids need positive male influences as much as they can get.
Don't judge people solely on their gender.
Not to mention, such a murder (a man murdering a female coworker) can happen in any line of work -- a school, a bank, an office, a factory, whatever.
What this has to do with childcare jobs is beyond me.

Exactly.
Now back on subject in regards to this article it was certainly premeditated murder with the way he went about getting in, if he truly is guilty.
If you take a life I believe you should loose your life if it's done this way.

I am not sure why are discussing men working around kids when no children were involved in this horrible crime.
That being said, I had some great male teachers growing up and I am a teacher myself, but I draw the line at teaching no younger than elementary school age in our after school program, for my own sanity. However, I have male a friend who is a day care teacher here and he has the perfect temperament for the job. He seems very normal and doesn't give me any weird vibes what so ever.
How awful this news must be for her family. RIP
Ganbare Japan!
@ englisc aspyrgend - Oh, What a nonsense. You need to read crime statistic more.
If found guilty, this man absolutely must be hung.
Rest in Peace to the innocent woman.

Evidences are heavily against him, who is denying the allegation.

Kenji, he deserves the death sentence. What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty?
Men are no more inclined to offend than women, so it is no more acceptable to preclude men from a particular employment than women.

I am at a total loss for what could have been his motivation.

"Just saw him on TV being led away, some nasty scratches on his neck." Good, sounds like the poor woman put up a good fight. I am sure there will be some DNA evidence underneath here nails, that will certainly be enough evidence for a prosecution/conviction.

RIP, he deserves the death sentence. I really think no man should work in such jobs around kids, imagined if he did something worse..
