At the trial of a 15-year-old boy who was accused of murdering an unfamiliar woman at a commercial facility in Fukuoka City, a question was asked by the defendant, and the boy was sent to the victim and the bereaved family. When asked about his feelings, he said, "I don't know what the apology is."
In August, at a commercial facility in Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City, a 21-year-old woman who had no acquaintance at the time was accused of murdering a 21-year-old woman with a kitchen knife. A 17-year-old boy's trial has been held at the Fukuoka District Court since the 6th.
On the 7th, a question was asked by the accused to the boy, and the boy said, "I'm sorry to have robbed the victim of the future," in response to the question from the lawyer, and showed his willingness to rehabilitate.
On the other hand, when asked by the prosecutor and the lawyer on the bereaved family side, he said, "I don't think I can do it," when asked "Do you want to rehabilitate?"
When asked, "Have you ever remembered the victims and bereaved families in the last two years?" He said, "I didn't think at all. I don't know what an apology means."
The court was sobbing for the bereaved families who participated in the trial using the victim participation system.
