@ponponpon-jv7rd10 ай бұрын
I think that is a possibility. However, if this is the case, it raises new questions about why he was already suffering from hypothermia before entering the septic tank, and it is puzzling that his entire body was completely contained in the septic tank. As you can see in the verification video, it is quite difficult to completely immerse one's entire body in that septic tank. Therefore, I doubt whether he was able to put his whole body into the septic tank while he was delirious due to hypothermia and his muscles were stiff. If you were to enter that septic tank, I think you would have to be persistent and shift your body little by little. So, even if he tried to enter the septic tank in a delirious state due to hypothermia, I think he would get stuck in the middle of the pipe, as shown in the verification video. So personally, I think he ended up in the septic tank himself for some reason and then died of hypothermia.

Honestly I don't think she has anything to do with it. How could she possibly force a man down a septic tank alone? She would've needed the help of at least one strong man. If she wanted him dead, it would've been easier and smarter to do so away from her home to avoid suspicions. Besides, she is a primary school teacher, that's not the kind of person with connections to cover herself up. Why should the Police protect a primary school teacher? It doesn't make any sense. It must've been someone with enough power to control the Police, to stop and investigation. Certainly not a young teacher. Most likely it has to do with the politics he was involved in. He probably had become problematic to some people and they decided it was time to get rid of him. So they chose to stage his dead close to someone he had some vague connection with to cover their tracks. It is not that unusual in corrupted contexts.

I think it would be difficult to put a dead person in such a narrow pipe. I think it would be easier for a living person to enter by changing their body posture. The scratches on Naoyuki's body, which appeared to have occurred when he entered the septic tank, showed signs of life. So at least he was alive when he entered the septic tank. I think if he had been forced into the pipe because someone had threatened him, the injuries would have been more noticeable. However, there were no obvious injuries on his body, such as any signs of being beaten. So I don't know what his purpose was, but given the circumstances, I think it's reasonable to assume that he entered the septic tank himself.

@@blazerker1640Regarding your former opinion, I don't think people would easily succumb to threats that don't involve physical violence and enter a place covered in excrement. Regarding your latter opinion, back then, teacher's dormitories were built in three or four rows. So, if there were several drunk people making a noise around the dormitory, I would think that someone would have heard them or witnessed them, but there is no testimony from nearby residents. Also, as you can see from the verification video, it is quite difficult to enter that septic tank. So I don't think you can get into the tank unless you have a clear will and tenacity to get into it. So even if a drunk tried to get into that pipe as a prank, I think he would give up halfway through. So, personally, I don't think your latter opinion is very likely. Another possibility is that he went into a septic tank due to hypothermia or some kind of drug that caused him to become delirious outdoors. However, if he was in a deranged state, I think he would not have been found with his whole body completely inside the tank, but with his body from the neck down sticking out of the pipe, as shown in the verification video. In any case, my personal opinion is that he went in himself for some reason.

In most of the reports I’ve translated, the shirt was “neatly folded,” I don’t speak Japanese so this is just speculation though since my translations are so bare bone. I don’t think he did that to cover his face but maybe he was suffering from symptoms of hypothermia or trying to see if removing his shirt would somehow make it easier to climb out of the tank. I mainly think he was trying to crawl out of either of the holes that the tank had (the toilet and the other lid, that’s why he was positioned so conveniently facing up to the toilet) and thought that removing his shirt would make it easier, especially if he was wearing a button-up. But this is pure speculation, Nao certainly wasn’t able to get in and out of that tank without any help.

That's a good angle... didn't think of that. That said, I think this has to be a homicide. The whole situation is too questionable, impossible, and just plain hinky to be otherwise. Too many unanswered/unexplainable things. Just my opinion.

It is natural for cement pipes to expand in the heat and contract in the cold. Thermal Expansion and Contraction. Therefore, if it was hella freezing 🥶 that makes it even harder and smaller than the demonstration of the dude going for it!

I find this case very strange. If his shows were in two different places, was he being chased or dragged by someone. Also the fact that he was in a fetal position in the tank is strange too, how would you get in that position in such a small space
@John_192010 ай бұрын
Here's a couple of scenarios I can see happening if he is innocent. He lost something down the toilet, that was important enough to go through the trouble of going down into the septic tank to try and retrieve it, and misjudged the space and capability of twisting or turning around once he was down inside the septic tank, causing him to get stuck as he didn't have the leverage or upper body strength to push himself reverse out of the septic tank. He was killed somehow, without knowing his dating history, or the interactions he had with the women in that area, maybe he had done something that made one of them so jealous that they used poison to kill him, then dumped him into the septic tank hoping he wouldn't be found in a while. Or, perhaps the one to find him was even the killer, and that's why she saw the shoe, even though it would have been more likely to see the head the way he was positioned.

I did notice another comment posing a very important question. If the teacher *opened* the septic tank lid, how did the guy close the lid behind him? Or did someone see the open lid, but somehow not the guy inside when they went over to close it? Or, more likely, someone closed it behind him.

Who drops something in a septic tank which was placed so high above the ground? Even if he dropped something you don't just go inside it he could have had a handlebar or something or he could easily get help from the locals since he was so well known

@shannonspage936010 ай бұрын
The peeping theory doesn't really make sense either though. This was the teacher's private toilet and she had gone home for a few days. What would have been the point of peeping in a toilet of someone who was going to be gone for several days? He would have known he was doing to have to be in there a while before she was going to be back. He didn't have his car parked properly for that as well. That also doesn't explain why his shoes were in two separate places, which would have been not possable for him to do himself. Considering the weather it just seems not likely a logical explaination, it is absurd.

He was definitely put there, this case is too suspicious. How would he be able to close the toilet if he’s already inside? How was his shirt so neatly folded? Maybe someone close to him had him meet up at that bathroom and they did that to him. The friends suicide is suspicious too, but maybe they were close and he felt like there was no hope. I’m not sure but I think we can all agree this is too strange for this to be an accident….

This remind me of a manga story ... I guess it's from Junji Ito... But it's a pipe through the sink then bathroom. Anyways.... This is just a case that should have been investigated further, but based from the theories, since he's also known in the area, there might be a possibility that they hide the truth or hide more evidences and witnesses. It's so bizarre and tickle curious brains.

@Silentgrace1110 ай бұрын
I guess my most immediate thought here - and perhaps they ruled it out already and it just wasn’t mentioned - but perhaps the man was drunk? If he was in there for two days before he died, so that would be enough time for the traces of alcohol to be out of his blood. Maybe it was out of a dumb peeping idea; maybe it was out of being cold; maybe it was out of being tired. Regardless of reason, without typical inhibitions to remind him how stupid an idea it was, he decided to crawl right in, only to realize the consequences of what would be his final actions as he became sober. It would also make the missing shoe make more sense, the minimal sign of struggle, etc. And frankly, if I was just caught at the back end of a gritty and possibly politically grubby election about the same topic of discussion that led to my friend’s suicide, yeah no, I could see myself getting drunk in response. Meanwhile, while I don’t think it rules out the teacher as a suspect in any potential foul play, I will say at least that when you’re a teacher, you watch for weird ass things and that leads you looking into weird places. Depending on the age of the students she could be more than aware that a few like to throw trinkets down the toilet. Especially in a rural school where she clearly knew where the septic tank is and how to access it, I wonder if she frequently had to fish out a few things to keep the system running smoothly. (Also, given the verbiage given, I wonder if she actively saw and acknowledged the object to be an adult shoe, or if she saw the slight glint of something down there, was like “damnit what not” and went to investigate).

It's unfortunate that this was ruled as accidental when the evidence clearly points towards foul play. Just because they lacked evidence to actually commit to investigating possible culprits or motives doesn't change the fact that there was plenty of evidence to rule out accidental death. Either the story was silenced or dismissed to not waste resources.

They refused to look into it more because of a lack of evidence that they clearly didn't look for to begin with 🤦🏻♀️ My understanding is that this kind of refusal to correct mistakes is a big part of how the conviction rate got so high - can't find proof they messed up if they refuse to try. A lot of innocent people are convicted because of this. Not that that doesn't happen elsewhere, just that it has become such a common thing (again, from my limited understanding).
@ponponpon-jv7rd10 ай бұрын
The reason why Japan's conviction rate is so high is because Japanese prosecutors only prosecute cases in which they are confident that a conviction will be obtained at trial. Therefore, the conviction rate will inevitably increase. Also, some overseas people living in Japan are obsessed with the idea that if they are arrested in Japan, they will be 100% guilty, but that is wrong. In reality, only around 35% of people arrested in Japan are prosecuted. The remaining 65% of the cases will not be prosecuted. Another reason is that the method of calculating the conviction rate in Japan and overseas is different. Japan's calculation method inevitably results in a higher conviction rate than in countries such as the United States. Some experts say that if the same calculation method is used, the conviction rates in Japan and the United States are practically the same.
