Defendant's question from today on the day of the injuries of facilities for disabled persons January 24 3:47
A defendant question will be asked from the 24th in a trial of a case where 19 residents were killed at a facility for the intellectually disabled in Sagamihara City. Defendant's lawyer has accused him of not being liable for the consequences of a mental illness resulting from the use of cannabis, and it is noteworthy how defendant himself explained.
Former employee of the intellectual disability facility "Tsukui Yamayuri-en" in Sagamihara City, Defendant Seiji Uematsu (30) was charged with murder in July 2016 for killing 19 residents.
The trial began on the 8th of this month and the defendants have acknowledged the killings and other matters. The issue at issue was the defendant's ability to account, and the prosecutor alleged that he was accountable, while the lawyer pleaded guilty to not being accountable due to the mental illness of using cannabis. Defendant questions will be asked from the 24th.
The defendant told the NHK reporter on Monday that he refused to be told that he had gone wrong with cannabis. He told lawyers that such claims were annoying. Notice how you explain yourself.
Defendants have repeatedly made discriminatory claims against persons with disabilities. It is also noticeable what they say about the background.
