In the case where two doctors were arrested for administering and killing a drug at the request of a woman with an intractable disease in Kyoto City, the doctor repeatedly instructed to erase the continuous communication of individual messages on SNS with the woman. I learned from interviews with investigators. The police are investigating because they have instructed to destroy the evidence.

Two doctors, Susumu Okubo (42) in Izumi Ward, Sendai City, and Naoki Yamamoto (43), in Minato Ward, Tokyo, were asked by a woman with an intractable disease that her entire body muscles gradually diminished last November. In response, he was arrested on suspicion of part-time murder, as he went to his home in Kyoto City to administer a drug and killed him.

In the investigations so far, women got acquainted with the doctor side because they posted on SNS asking for euthanasia, and then using specific messages that third parties could not see, I know I was exchanging dates and times.

Interviews with investigators revealed that the doctor had instructed us to repeatedly erase this individual message by the day of the incident.

On the other hand, the woman saved some of the exchanges, such as the transfer of approximately 1.3 million yen in cash, and the police also understood the situation after the incident.

Police are investigating the doctors, who were aware of the illegality, because they had ordered to erase the message in an attempt to destroy the evidence.
