In Sasaguri Town, Fukuoka Prefecture, a mother and an acquaintance's woman were arrested for starving to death without giving a sufficient meal to a 5-year-old boy. I found out from interviews with investigators that I was instructing.

The prosecution charged the two with the abandonment of the protection officer.

According to the police, an acquaintance's woman has denied the charges.

Rie Ikari (39) and her acquaintance Emiko Akahori (48) in Sasaguri Town, Fukuoka Prefecture were arrested last April for starving to death without giving enough food to Shoshiro, the third son of Ikari, who was five years old. On the 23rd, he was charged with the abandonment of the protection officer.



In the investigation so far, Defendant Akahori lied to Defendant Ikari, saying, "I have to live a simple life because I have money in the future due to a trial with my ex-husband and a compensation fee," and I manage the whole life of the family. I know that.



In this process, I used LINE to instruct Shoshiro about the amount of food to give, and I learned from interviews with investigators that the history was left behind.



The police and others see the history of the exchange as evidence of specific instructions, and the prosecution has determined that due to these circumstances, in addition to his mother, Ikari, his acquaintance, Akahori, can be held responsible for starving Shoshiro-kun. It means that it was done.



In addition, Akahori has been charged with fraud and theft three times for deceiving cash such as welfare expenses and children's allowances paid to Ikari.



The prosecution has not disclosed whether the two have admitted the charges.



On the other hand, Ikari admits the charges against the police investigation so far.



Defendant Akahori denied the charges by stating, "Ikari's meal was not enough, so I just supported him."

Shoshiro-kun's grandmother's comment

Shoshiro's grandmother, who died, made a comment through a lawyer.



About Shoshiro-kun, "I want you to return Sho. Sho was talkative and asked a lot,'Why? Why?'. I wanted to keep an eye on him growing up. I took it over and let him eat full of rice. I wanted to give it to you. "



The comments detail the child guidance center's response.



"The lights in my house had been off for days. It was funny, unusual, and it was a cold time, so my grandchildren would be cold without heating. Where should I ask for help? I didn't know, and I went to the consultation because I believed that the person at the child guidance center would help me. He also said that he wanted to eat full and would like to pick it up at home. He believed that he would be contacted, and he gave him his mobile phone number and waited for contact, but the child minister contacted him even if he waited for a week or two. Even if I went to the child minister again, I was not told anything because of privacy. As a result, the reason why the consultation was not utilized is that people who are not willing to utilize the consultation are consulted. Isn't it because of this? There is no point in the child minister if he does not protect the life of the child while protecting the privacy. I think that privacy should not be the reason why the child minister does not work, "he criticized the response. doing.



He added, "I think I was hungry with my family, and I regret that I should have gone to the rescue even if I kicked the front door without relying on the childhood minister at that time."



Regarding Defendant Akahori, he said, "Because a criminal trial is coming up, I can't tell you the details."
