What exactly is there to be dissatisfied about?
<Below is a statement from the bereaved family>
I feel that the crime committed against my daughter, who lost her life after suffering unimaginable cruelty and pain, is being treated too lightly. From our family’s perspective, since the defendant also used about 100,000 yen from her Pay Pay balance after killing her, it wouldn’t be strange if robbery-murder charges were applied.
My daughter’s life and dreams were stolen at 17, but the defendant, Uchida, is protected by the law. After serving a maximum of only 27 years in prison, she will be released to live a free life and start over. As a parent, I feel pathetic when I think about how I am supposed to report this to my deceased daughter.
About two years have passed since the incident, but our family continues to live in pain and sorrow to this day. And this grief will never heal.
However, in a nation governed by the rule of law, we, the family, cannot inflict the same suffering upon the defendant, Uchida.
That is precisely why we hope the court will consider a just punishment that reflects the feelings of the bereaved family, from the perspective of what they would want if it were their own family. Under Japanese law, the maximum term for a definite prison sentence for the defendant, Uchida, is 27 years, and anything heavier than that is a life sentence.
Our family naturally believes that a sentence of life imprisonment or worse should be imposed. However, even if a life sentence cannot be imposed due to sentencing balance and other factors, the gap between the maximum definite sentence and a life sentence is too large. Especially for murder cases like this one, we request that a legal amendment be considered to raise the maximum limit for definite prison sentences in order to impose appropriate punishment.
We strongly hope that there will be no more crimes that cause others to suffer the same fate as our daughter or families to experience what we are going through.
We would like to take this opportunity to express our deepest gratitude to the police officers who worked so hard on the investigation, the prosecutors and lawyers who engaged in serious discussions and provided support, the journalists who sought to convey the truth, and everyone who shared in our pain and sent warm condolences and flowers.
It’s way too light for what she actually did.

Isn’t the problem that if people see you only get 27 years for doing something this extreme, more people will feel safe doing the same thing?
9 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:11:17 ID:bFOe
These internet kids just want extreme results. Their brains are craving “death penalty” like it’s junk food.
21 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:18:33 ID:NHqt
Even if it’s not the death penalty or life imprisonment, I thought it would be around 50 years. 27 years is barely enough time to just start over, right?
23 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:18:54 ID:FamL
>>21
The maximum is 30 years.
33 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:21:55 ID:P9EJ
Even with the death penalty, the bereaved family wouldn’t be satisfied, because it doesn’t bring their loved one back.
36 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:23:04 ID:4o9B

Exactly.
That’s why you want them to suffer and be miserable for the rest of their lives.
If they come begging for forgiveness, you tell them “Go ahead and live your life like that.”
Even then, you don’t forgive them, but that’s the bare minimum they should be forced to do.
37 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:23:15 ID:bFOe

For real.
In other words, it doesn’t really matter if it’s the death penalty or a prison sentence.
40 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:27:18 ID:4o9B
So it comes down to:
I want them to be given enough despair and terror to make them want to die themselves.
“That’s what you did to someone else,” that’s the point.
Does 27 years really equate to that?
41 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:27:34 ID:NHqt
>>40
That’s it right there.
46 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:29:01 ID:F4XO
If you’ve been in prison since 2000 and get out now, the damage from that alone must be huge. I can’t imagine them living a happy life after that.
49 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:29:46 ID:4o9B
>>46
Like, “AI? What’s that?” kind of stuff, right?
47 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:29:40 ID:6dXK
But if you spend 27 years in prison, your face gets old, you don’t know the social situation, you have no place to work… I think they’ll just end up committing another crime.
62 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:36:09 ID:4o9B
Do you have to write “prison sentence” on your resume, or is it fraud if you don’t?
64 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:37:38 ID:lsd9
In the first place, under criminal law, it’s basically impossible to get a life sentence for murdering just one person, and usually, the definite sentence is capped at 25 years. So getting the full 27 years is actually pretty heavy; unless you’re deep into organized crime, you don’t usually go that high. I’m pretty sure a life sentence on the first go is for stuff like rape-murder or arson-murder.
65 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:37:57 ID:FamL

This.

I can accept it logically, but emotionally it’s hard to swallow. I guess that’s why the death penalty supporters are getting all worked up.
67 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:39:13 ID:4o9B
>>64
Robbery-murder was pretty heavy too, wasn’t it?
68 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:39:15 ID:NrxH
27 years for murder is still on the lighter side.
72 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 05:41:20 ID:lsd9

Getting 27 years for killing one person is extremely rare. Our judicial system is way too soft, sure, but basically, it’s a 25-year cap for one person, life for two, and death for three. There are exceptions, of course.
91 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 06:01:14 ID:JJ4p
Do you know why they don’t give the death penalty often even if you kill one person?
It’s so people don’t think, “Well, if I’m gonna get the death penalty anyway, I might as well kill 2 or 3 people for the points!”
92 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 06:03:42 ID:JJ4p
The problem is that women’s prisons are too relaxed. It’s a prison, so they should be shaving their heads and making them line up in dirty rooms.
94 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 06:18:47 ID:PSrs
A person that dangerous is coming out in her 40s with no chance of recovery? Isn’t that scary?
95 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 06:20:18 ID:PSrs
A stupid woman who can’t feel that killing people or committing crimes is wrong is coming out in her healthy 40s.
96 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/23(Tue) 06:20:56 ID:DkxD
I do wonder what the difference is between cases where you get life imprisonment for one victim and cases where you don’t.

Nobody is hoping for rehabilitation, you know.
