Crazy Crimes

Japan is a safe country. I have never felt safer but sometimes they get their fair share of crazy, random crimes that seem so out of place.

I can’t seem to read the news lately without something awful happening and it always has to be done in a very Japanese way (no one gets a quick death here it’s all about killing your mother, cutting her head off, putting the head in a bag, going bowling then going to the police station - true story!)

The kids seem most at risk. I can’t go a week without reading a report about how some tired mother decided to kill her kids. Usually they throw the kids off the roof of a building then jump over themselves – why?!
