    Yup. Worst case, the woman was only guilty of trying to rob him. But the cops restrained an elderly man, pinned him down with their knees (aren't there enough examples of cops killing people this way?), and refused to get medical assistance despite him throwing up and passing out. They are guilty of murdering him. Far worse crime than the woman.

    I do wonder if the "uncanny" images of the thief were intentionally exaggerated, in the same way that missing person posters often push any notable details to an extreme. If the thief had wide features, then the forensic artists might make them look even wider. The end result looks unnatural, but it sticks in people's minds. Also, much respect for Juzo Itami. I doubt he thought he was untouchable. Rather, anything done to him in retaliation would only validate his cause all the more. He got the last laugh.

    I think that Nayoyuki was either dead or unconscious and was put in the septic tank while totally limp. Its not uncommon for people to dispose of bodies in septic tanks to mask the smell. I also think if someone was conscious after they got trapped there they’d have wounds on their hands or body from trying to claw their way out. I guess there’s also a part of me that just wants to hope he wasn’t aware of what was happening when he died, because that’s just such an awful way to go.

Legend goes you encounter a demon or whatever that asks you to pick one of two choices but you always die a violent grizzly death regardless of what you do and the only way out is to be prepared or just run away. The spooky toilet ghost with the red and blue paper for example. It’s a lose lose scenario, you either get your spine removed or have to run away without wiping. Who comes up with this shit?

Heck, running away doesn't always save you; some of the ghosts will follow you til they succeed in killing you.

    In regards to case #2: most stills that are released when trying to identify someone will be uncanny valley universally. this is because they play up the most noticeable features of the suspect both to drive interest in how horrific the photos tend to look, but because it also surprisingly makes it a lot easier for a lot of people due to the strong features being enhanced.

    Honestly, here is my take on the first one. The victim may have been on the receiving end on a “prank” played by his “friends”, they may have taken him there and by threats of violence/force have gotten him to crawl into the septic tank, this would also show little signs of struggle since he may have done it partially “willingly”. He may have complied, and taken off his shirt and keeping it against his chest (assuming most of the sewage would be against his back) to keep it clean, believing he would be pulled out again eventually. However, as he crawled in he would end up in a position similar to the guy from the Nutty Putty Cave incident, which is a position that is impossible to crawl out from and very difficult to be pulled out of. Upon realizing he is stuck (his shoes may have come off in the attempts to pull him out or to get a better grip on his feet) they may have tried to dispose of the shoes by throwing into the other end of the tank, but when seeing that it was very easy to spot the shoe, they could have taken the other one and disposed of in a river. The victim would probably try to call for help, but be muffled by the sewage/shoe on his face and the pipes. He could have quite realistically died over night due to hyperthermia, and as Lazy said, pulled his legs to him to keep warm, in hopes he could get the attention of someone in the morning. Just speculation but couldn’t get it out of my head.

    Just my guess here: Woman shouts thief and bystanders take her word for it and jump the guy. Rookie police show up and are probably told by multiple people that the man was a thief trying to steal from this woman, so they act on the info they're given and attack the man. By the time more experienced police show up, the damage is already done. Once the guy is dead, the police save face if its just some criminal who died rather than an innocent person, so they have every reason not to look too deeply into the incident. More likely than not, it was family or perhaps journalists not willing to let the issue rest that finally forced the police to clear his name.

    There are too many stories like that of Ojii-san's, where women use their presumed 'innocence' to their advantage. I literally witnessed a woman *almost* successfully abduct a child from their father (and only failed to because luckily a bystander asked the child who the woman was) because she cried for help when he tried to save his child and several people tried to pin him down We as a society really are failing a lot of people with these sexist assumptions about men as perps and women as victims.

    100%. Women can easily do this kind of thing. All they have to do is pretend to cry and people will come to their aid. I had an ex that used to like to play games like this when she was drunk.

We have been fighting for equal rights for ages, we whine and complain about men, but when men do it, it's mysoginistic? That's double standards in my eyes and it's disgusting.

Japan likes to act like they’re such an innocent, crime free country, but the crimes against women specifically are awful and often lack proper justice. I’ve heard people argue that Japan is safer for women because they have womens only sections on trains… which is baffling to me because the reason they do is BECAUSE of how unsafe it is for women. They’re honestly doing the bare minimum making people feel safer in dangerous situations, but not addressing the dangerous people themselves

    The man in the pipe is a japanese police thing. There is no possible way for the story to be true, he knew the person wasnt even there, would have had to have gone backwards hands first into sewage, knowing he would likely freeze to death and brought nothing to eat or drink. The police just didnt have a good suspect. The bar is pretty high in Japan and things like this arent even considered a coverup. The conviction rate is too high for them not to make excuses to leave no case unsolved, because that is bad for them.

    Awesome vid as always. I remember one story where a father was walking in the parking lot with his son and his wife was in the car. A random woman came up grabbing his son and started screaming about the father trying to kidnap her son. People came running holding the father down while the woman was literally starting to walk away with his son and they kept holding him down. In true mom moment fashion the actual mother ran across the parking lot and yanked their child away from the woman. She said she didn't even remember starting to move and she was there and the father said it was the most terrifying moment of his life because the "good samaritans" wouldnt listen to him. Seeing the mother pop up out of nowhere they quickly realized thier mistake. Although I 100% believe they had the best of intentions but in that particular situation they probably should have detained all parties instead of assuming the man had been in the wrong. I imagine the damn near tragic mistake keeps them up at night. Hell it probably keeps all parties up at night.

This is why gun control is a thing so people won't abuse it and use it to shoot innocent people. The witnesses thought the man really is a kidnapper and the lady is the mom trying to take her child back. If that was to be the case, would you want that man to hold a gun so he can get away with the child?
