● In April 1999, a 23-year-old housewife and her 11-month-old infant were murdered in Hikari City, Yamaguchi Prefecture by 18-year-old F. ・ The bereaved husband, Hiroshi Motomura, left alone, challenged the criminal F, who was protected by the Juvenile Law, in an endless battle. ・ Motomura faced thick walls he could never have imagined, such as the world of justice, which had become formalistic due to market-based principles and precedent-based practices. ・ When Motomura, overwhelmed by despair, submitted his resignation, his superior said, "A person who neither works nor pays taxes can only howl like a loser when they appeal to society. You must be a member of society." A prosecutor who lost in court said, "Even if we lose 100 times, we will do it the 101st time," and various people supported Motomura, who was wandering in the depths of despair. ★ An untold human drama unfolded behind the historical incident that would greatly reform Japan's judicial system. ・ What were the unexpected words confessed by the criminal F at the Hiroshima Detention Center the morning after the remanded appeal court ruling, as revealed by a journalist who had followed the case for nine years? ・ 348 pages ・ Shincho Bunko ・ 14.8 x 10.5 x 2 cm ・ Author: Ryusho Kadota ・ 2010/8/28 ・ Price: 514 yen (excluding tax) ※ There are scratches on the cover.
