More than 100 victims of voyeurism… Thrills and tears of confession told by a famous dark-skinned and macho tanning salon manager.

I want to see the genitals of women who are dressed the way I like them.”

Hiroki Yamamoto, 62, was arrested on September 5 for voyeuristically photographing women using a tanning machine at his tanning salon, and his first trial was held on November 14 at the Tokyo District Court.

Yamamoto appeared in court wearing a black suit and a shaved head with gray hair. His back was straight and straight, and his muscular and macho physique was evident even through the suit. His skin, which was still dark, perhaps the result of a suntan, was impressive.

According to the indictment, Yamamoto pointed a smartphone or digital camera at the feet of four women, A-D, who were using a tanning machine at a tanning salon where he worked as a manager, to spy on their pubic areas and buttocks. Yamamoto admitted to the charges against him, saying, “There is no doubt about it.

Yamamoto opened a tanning salon 30 years ago. At the time of his arrest, he stated that he had repeatedly voyeuristically photographed more than 100 people, and hundreds of photos were found in his confiscated smartphone” (investigator).

Yamamoto explained his motive for committing the crime,

“I was interested in women’s clothes and underwear, and I wanted to see the genitals of women in the clothes I liked.

He was knowledgeable about tanning, etc., and had a good knowledge of tanning. He was so trusted by customers that they came to the store to ask for his advice. 22-year-old Ms. A also visited the store eight times. On her fifth visit, she noticed a shutter sound coming from near her feet and consulted a friend. He asked his friend about it,

He told his friend, “Mr. Yamamoto is not the type of person who would do such a thing.

At the time, he thought he was mistaken. However, when he went to the restaurant later, he heard the shutter sound again, so he placed his phone under his pillow to take a video of the inside of the machine, and Yamamoto was caught on film. In his opening statement, the prosecutor read out the feelings of the four female victims.

On the day that she and her boyfriend were in the store and the three of them were chatting…

Mr. A,

《I was so scared to think that he was just trying to peek at me, even though he was kind enough to tell me. It was disgusting and unforgivable.

Ms. A expressed her anger, followed by Ms. B (25),

It’s a shame because the tanning technique was really good. It is really unforgivable that I was filmed on the same day that I was chatting with my boyfriend in the store.

I really can’t forgive them for filming me and my boyfriend on a day when we were talking inside. The restaurant used to employ part-time workers, but around 16 years ago, Yamamoto began to work alone. The reason for this was to create a one-on-one situation with customers and make it easier for him to take voyeuristic photos, which is surprising.

I got a thrill from taking pictures and became excited.

Yamamoto claimed that his goal was to take voyeuristic photographs. The seized SD card contained images of the pubic area and buttocks. In the case of voyeurism, the victim fears that the images will be leaked,

I didn’t look at the images or masturbate over them. I did not leak the images to anyone.

He denied that the images were leaked. Finally,

The store that became a hotbed of crime is a place where people can masturbate. The store that became a breeding ground for crime has been closed.

He tearfully expressed his remorse.

He has already reached settlements with the two victims. The woman who refused to accept the settlement will be paid 1 million yen in compensation, and the remaining victim will be dealt with in good faith as soon as he is contacted. Prosecutors sought 10 months in prison for “malicious and habitual behavior. Yamamoto’s foolishness not only betrayed the trust of customers, but also tarnished the image of the industry as a whole.
