Three years ago, in Yamato City, Kanagawa Prefecture, a mother was arrested for killing her son, who was in the first grade of elementary school, by blocking his nose and mouth. I found out by interviewing the investigators.

Ayano Ueda (42), a self-proclaimed nursing assistant in Nishitsuruma, Yamato City, Kanagawa Prefecture, blocked the nose and mouth of her second son, Yudai-kun (7), who was a first-year elementary school student in her apartment room in August 2019. He was arrested on suspicion of murder on the 20th for suffocating.


According to police, she denies her charges that she "does nothing" in response to her investigation.



According to the investigation so far, Yudai-kun was confirmed dead after the suspect himself reported to the fire department and was transported, but the hospital contacted the police because there was something suspicious.


According to the investigators, when the body was examined in detail, there was subcutaneous bleeding that occurred when the back of the head was pressed with a strong force, and it was suspected that it was suppressed in a state of lying down from the doctor's appraisal.



Also, the suspect has another child who died at an early age.


The police are going to investigate the situation of childcare in detail.
