Initially, the Child Guidance Center explained that it was April 10 when the police were protected for the fourth time when they decided to temporarily protect Etsuko Otsuka (4) who died.
However, according to Director Sata, the policy for temporary protection was decided on March 30 the next day after the third protection, and the next time it was protected by the police, the mother was told that it would be temporarily protected. It was that I was getting.
The fourth time she was protected was on April 2, and the child guidance center said that it took time for the police to identify themselves as to why the mother took over.
In response to this, the police asked the child guidance center to decide whether or not to protect it temporarily. There is a disagreement between the child guidance center and the police.
