Suicide case! And the sexual assault case that happened before that! The two cases are actually a tragedy that is related to each other!
About twelve years ago, a panicked girl walked into the gate of the station's central police station, and under the questioning of the police station receptionist, the other party finally explained her intentions.
"That...... I...... I want to report it!"
"Oh...... Is there anything you can help us with? Can you tell us about your situation and we can put you in touch with the relevant people. ”
"Yes...... It's ......"
"What kind ......of case is it?"
"I ...... Yesterday was ...... I'm ...... I want to report it!"
Although the girl was in tears of shame, the female police officer in charge of the reception understood her words. She was silent for a moment, then asked her colleague to take the girl to a room first, to avoid the surprised gazes of the people in the hall who noticed it.
When the Criminal Division received a report from the girl, the situation was quickly reported to Kiyoshi Matsumoto, who had just been transferred from the Metropolitan Police Department to the Central Police Station, where he was in charge of the criminal department. Feeling that such a criminal case of such a bad nature had occurred in its jurisdiction, the local Central Police Station naturally attached great importance to this incident at that time. As a result, the police quickly found the five suspects who were involved in the assault on the girl that day through the remains of men left on the victim's clothes. However, at this time, the identity and background of these five suspects aroused great curiosity in the media.
According to the records left at the time, these five suspects were all students of Keio University at that time, and they can be described as the pride of heaven with a bright future. In addition to this, the suspect's family background is equally enviable. Three of the suspects' fathers work as executives at large corporations, while the other two have fathers who are members of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly and celebrities in the legal profession, respectively. The five suspects relied on their background in a prestigious school and their prominent backgrounds to deceive and assault girls who were still studying in colleges and universities in the name of the Keio University Study Club. Although there was only one victim who came to report the crime, under the continued investigation by the police, it was found that it was not only this girl who was violated by these suspects.
Because the suspects' relatives included well-known figures in the legal profession, the five suspects denied their crimes even though the police had already obtained the victim's testimony and the remains of the scene. And the lawyers they hired began to bypass the police and privately contact victims who had not reported the crime. Under a series of actions by the other party, those victims who had agreed to testify in court under the persuasion of the police began to regret one after another, and at the same time, the suspect's lawyer began to look for opportunities to contact the victim Yumi Ichikawa, who initially reported the case to the police.
As long as I write down under the documents given by the lawyer that everything that happened was voluntary, I can get a lot of compensation. But if you don't accept the other party's settlement terms, then you have to answer those difficult questions to the judge and the lawyer in court, and at the same time, there are the media who are always following the incident, and they are constantly digging up information about the victim through various means. It is under these conditions that more and more female victims are beginning to retreat.
Victims continue to deny to the police that the suspect violated them, and although it is humiliating to do so, they do not have to stand in court at the risk of their personal information being leaked, and endure constant cross-examination by lawyers and prosecutors. In this way, I am afraid it is easier to choose not to go to court.
……
When Lin Xiuyi closed the case file, he couldn't help but feel very admired for the girl who dared to testify against the suspect at the beginning. As a police officer who used to specialize in sex crime cases. Lin Xiuyi can understand the pressure faced by women who have been violated. Even if you are a victim, there are always good people who want to discover the responsibility of women in this regard. Especially if the suspects are still students at a prestigious school, many people think that they are deceived by others, and they will make mistakes if they can't hold on. So some people began to study various information about the victimized women according to this idea, or they received a lot of chocolates on Valentine's Day, or they often received confessions from the opposite sex. All of this seems to prove that the victim is usually a woman who provokes trouble, so it becomes a matter of course that she is violated.
"Alas, although there is not much information left on the case file, this incident seems to have been very sensational back then!"
Lin Xiuyi sat in front of the computer, constantly searching for news reports from the archive, hoping to find more clues.
"Police, I found the trial information about this case, and it seems that the magistrate finally agreed to the proposal of the District Attorney's Office to exempt the victim from court for the protection of the victim. At that time, the suspect's lawyer appeared to be asking questions to the victim over the phone. ”
"Oh...... It seems that the victim was indeed under tremendous pressure at that time! No wonder the other party changed his name after the verdict was pronounced in this case!"
"But it's a pity that in the end, the victim's information was found out by the reporter, maybe it was because of the constant harassment that the victim finally chose to commit suicide!"
Miki looked at the suicide case file in her hand. I can't help but feel a little sad in my heart, a fresh life is crushed by the cruel reality like this. In the end, it was a dead end. Although her actions brought the deserved punishment to those who deserved it, in the end, it also cost the victims their lives.
"So...... What we're going to investigate now is the truth about that suicide case!"
Lin Xiuyi said as he stood up and walked to Miki's side, picked up the file of the suicide case and said.
"Hey, but...... If you look at the causal relationship between the two cases and the motive for Yumi Ichikawa's suicide, there doesn't seem to be anything particularly concerning. ”
"Well, actually, I think so too! Moreover, because Yumi Ichikawa's body has been cremated, ...... We can't find out the exact cause of her death! But one thing that strikes me as a little problematic is the wrong page number on the file. Why are there two 177 pages?"
"Police, do you mean that the case file has been tampered with?"
