societymike,
Where does this country with 'virtually NO off-road areas, vast majority paved' exsist? I assume you are referring to Japan or is it your little bubble of Japan that you are referring to? For one Japan has plenty of off-road trails, mountain passes, and 4x4 courses to drive on which do require a 4x4 type of vehicle. How would I know? I own a 4x4 and travel to these places frequently. Moreover, have you seen the snow that falls in this country? Perhaps if you lived in a such a place you might think..gee a kick-a** 4x4 would be ideal for my environment. Oh, and what about the overseas market and not just the Japanese market. Last I checked Toyota's cars reached to all four corners of the earth. Sorry if I burst your little bubble...

Parents fault no less. The mother should have NEVER left two children at that age unattended for any amount of time.

Take a step back for a moment and consider this scenario if you will.
Cop #1 makes tea with the sleeping drug for the detainee it was originally intended for and leaves it lying around. Cop #2 sees the tea, thinks nothing of it, drinks it and passes out. Cop #1 and Cop #2 realize they screw up and decide to pass the blame onto Tsuge-san who was wise enough to walk out on a sleeping cop.
Way to go Mito-Vice! Great detective work.
