"Keita Nonaka, a sergeant at Kasukabe Police Station, used his smartphone camera to film up the girl’s skirt on an escalator"  

what's this guy's rank,? you got to be kidding

"Those who were physically abused numbered 21,520, while 10,205 children experienced neglect or abandonment and 320 suffered sexual abuse."

I tried to warn some JN parent(s) who were letting their youngins wobble in the streeets, particularly of possible approaching speeding vehicles/scooters, and in both cases i was told to mind my own business in Japanese (sic).

A man forced his way into the Tokyo apartment of a woman in her 80s, used a stun gun on her and stole cash on Friday night.

breaking and entering, intrusion, attempted murder due to victims age, illegal possession of a weapon, ...

wait a minute, according to japanese police law, stun guns are illegal, especially for non japanese trying to live in japan.

Hiroshi Watanabe, 67 never intended at all" to murder anyone,

sprayed another medical worker with tear gas

First law broke: illegal use of a firearm in JAPAN

Where did he get the teargas, isn't also illegal to have in JAPAN!

Another , keeping the corpse(s) "in da house" , very macabre.

malaysia and singapore "swings" seller and customer as an effective deterrent.

another mummy keeper...

Osaka again?

wow!

why can't they all just get along?

hmm, nobody pulled out cell phone to call for help?

"Japan introduces up to one-year jail time for cyberbullying, online abuse"

.............................................

IMO:

......................

Japan needs to introduce penalties for public bullying and psyho social, and trap intimidation profiling.

Abandoning a body here sporadically likely winds up under floor boards, in a "closet", in a river, or in the mountains.

"Police have put up posters at JR Yugawawa Station, containing a photo of a suspect taken from surveillance camera"

Perhaps some may possibly speculate the suspected perp may possibly have avoided that station and vicinity. The ward offices keep heavy documentation on past living area changes to new living areas, with copies of last known occupation and and addresses, and usuall with updated copies at kobans in a ward, esp for non jns. Not to mention curious ones watching new neighbors, faces and the millions of street cameras 2015.

@pudus, I agree especially down in Okinawa, or Hiroshima, or Nagasaki.

@ Mickelicious

Why is the guy's nationality relevant?

When I worked as a translator for j-cops, that was the first thing they all wanted to know if the perp wasn't JN.

"a caregiver at a nursing home for elderly residents"

You got to be kidding....

@Jonathan Prin

Medieval justice.

......

Learn not to work for a Japanese company (corrupted bias).

Good luck Japan for the future.

Their done!, Canadians, and Eu's maybe

"can be held for 23 days without a charge IN JAPAN!

"is utterly disgraceful in what is supposedly an advanced democracy."

"The woman activated a silent security alarm"

that was smart...

Let me add facts:

If they determine he brought the drug in from the land of down under or elsewhere, he can be suspected of international drug trafficking.

ref:

https://www.interpol.int/en/Crimes/Drug-trafficking

"Drug trafficking affects all parts of the world as either source, transit or destination regions. ... Criminal networks traffic a range of drugs including cannabis, cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine. As international borders become increasingly porous, global abuse and accessibility to drugs have become increasingly widespread."

"property destruction"

that's minor news, they are just youths looking for excitement.

@Mark

"Poor lady, she needs to get one of these best friends ever a German shepherd or Dobermann."

If she did and one of them ate is behind off, the bass akwards would arrest her.

that's JP for you.

"Mind boggling"

It usually is

"There is NO way this guy should be let out of any institution, except in a wooden box."

He may get the slap on the wrist in J world but these are the wrong times upon the real world to sow iniquities.

My guess is Kokobunji; because they have ISO earthquake building codes, like i.e. 7 floors limit, they say, and they use a lot of backup generators, solar power, etc, and not far from yokota air base, (within base police jurisdiction zone) if base assistance is needed for americans, vets, etc.

"Most roads lack a dedicated sidewalk. Call it bad urban planning or whatever, it's a simple fact here. Even in Tokyo, all you get is a narrow white line, where a sidewalk would go, I get it small land, overcrowding, but in country areas outside cities there are sometime no street lights or uber eats too, I get it Japan is still developing in many ways, but bad planning , and/or limited economic planning is also an issue. And I've see these crazy truck drivers run lights in huge trucks, and speed through residential areas. I almost got took out by one flying on perhaps "ice" through a J-hood.

"Japanese prosecutors demanded two years in prison for former Nissan executive Greg Kelly and accused him of joining a "conspiracy" to pay his former boss Carlos Ghosn illicitly"

To be locked down in a oppressive bucolic; covertly resolutely biased, besides the; pandemic, and unprecedented global cataclysmic events to be in a Japanese prison, sorry bub you picked an amiss country.

"arrested a 40-year-old police officer on suspicion of filming up a woman’s skirt at a train station."

I wonder if he is charged with the equivalent of a felony charge?

At a bar I overhead someone talking about a "biddy" trying to instigate a confrontation inside a burger joint with anyone....be careful, as my Japanese wife said, some are on the brink of total breakdown during this season.
