<h2> He had sexual intercourse with a female student in the first year of junior high school&#8230;</h2>
<p> On December 24, 2012, the Tokyo District Court heard the trial of Tamotsu Shiiki, 58, a former member of the House of Representatives, who was accused of sexually assaulting a first-year junior high school female student.</p>
<p> According to the indictment, on August 20, 2012, Tamotsu Shiiki sexually assaulted a female student at a karaoke bar in Kabukicho, Tokyo, kissing her on the lips and touching her breasts, knowing she was under 13 years old.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> Shiiki had worked in the field of education for many years, including as a teacher at junior high and high schools and for the Board of Education. He used this experience to run for the 13th district of Chiba in the &#8217;12 Lower House election from the former The Japan Innovation Party, and was elected for the first time after being resurrected on a proportional basis. He has served two terms in the House of Representatives.</p>
<p> Immediately after his arrest on September 9, 2012, he denied the charges, but at his first trial on December 5, 2012, he admitted the facts of the indictment, saying, &#8220;There is no doubt about it. He was dressed in a gray sweatshirt and a waist rope, and his thinning gray hair was nodding his head.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> On December 24, &#8217;24, he was dressed in a black suit and his hair, which had probably been re-dyed, was dark. Perhaps unable to bear the stares from the packed auditorium, Shiiki&#8217;s eyes behind his silver spectacles wandered and his eyebrows twitched nervously as he waited for the court to begin. Yet, when the questioning of the defendant began, even though he admitted the facts of the indictment, he repeatedly gave iridescent answers about his motives and memories of that time, as if he were a member of the National Diet.</span></p>
<p> According to the prosecution&#8217;s opening statement, Shiiki ran away from home and asked a female student who was next to him to have sexual intercourse with him for money, and bought lotion at the adult goods section of Don Quijote. He also entered a karaoke bar under a false name. When asked about his current state of mind at the beginning of his questioning of the accused, Shiiki replied, &#8220;I am repeating my remorse every day,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I have been repeating my remorse day after day. I am truly sorry. I can&#8217;t put it into one word.</span></p>
<p> He said he was sorry, but throughout his remarks in response to the prosecution&#8217;s questions, one could not help but wonder whether he was truly sorry or not.</p>
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead=" He repeatedly gave iridescent answers, as if he were a member of the Diet."></div>
<h2>No ejaculation occurred.&#8221;</h2>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> When Shiiki entered the store with a female student, the clerk became suspicious because they did not look like a father and son, and asked for their names and phone numbers, Shiiki gave a false name, &#8216;Iwata. The clerk guided him to a room where there was a lot of pedestrian traffic and the interior could be easily seen from the aisle, just to be sure. After a while, he went to check on them and saw Shiiki and a female student hugging each other naked. He then called 110. Shiiki did not respond to the police who arrived at the scene, gave them his business card, and left the scene.</span></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> When asked by the prosecutor why he approached the female student, Shiiki replied, &#8220;I thought she was running away from home, so I did something about it,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I thought she ran away from home and wanted to do something about it. （I thought she ran away from home and wanted to do something about it.</span></p>
<p> He said, &#8220;I thought she ran away from home and I wanted to do something about it. He went to a karaoke bar to talk to the female student, but on the way there, he bought lotion at Don Quijote. The reason for this,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I think he intended to use it at the karaoke bar. （I didn&#8217;t realize what I was doing until I saw the pictures in evidence (during the interrogation).</span></p>
<p> He said that he did not remember purchasing the lotion. He also said that he did not remember the fact that he used a false name at the karaoke bar,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> He said, &#8220;Even when I was in office (as a Diet member), I had many opportunities to use a false name, and I used it very naturally. When making reservations at restaurants, I used the name Shiiki because it was difficult to hear.</span></p>
<p> He defended himself by saying that he used it on a daily basis. He also said that he had sexual intercourse with her immediately after she entered the restaurant.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The female student ordered two glasses of grapefruit juice. When the drinks arrived, intercourse ensued.&#8221;</span></p>
<p> As for the synchronization of the crime,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> &#8220;He was polite and polite in his manner of speech. He was mentally strong, mature, and had a devil&#8217;s advocate. I was in that world at that moment.</span></p>
<p> I didn&#8217;t ejaculate,&#8221; he explained in his own unique way. He denied it categorically, saying, &#8220;I did not ejaculate,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> But he also said, &#8220;In my 58 years of life, that act was the only time I felt as if I had a &#8216;different self.</span></p>
<p> He was talking as if he had a different persona.</p>
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead=" The prosecutor&#39;s office declared, The manner in which he gave his statement was not sufficient."></div>
<h2>The money was &#8220;intended as cab fare.&#8221;</h2>
<p> According to the victim&#8217;s statement, Shiiki asked the female student, &#8220;I&#8217;ll give you 20,000 yen and we can have fun. ≫According to the victim&#8217;s statement, Shiiki asked the female student, &#8220;I&#8217;ll give you 20,000 yen so we can have some fun,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> According to the victim&#8217;s affidavit, Shiiki asked the female student, &#8220;I&#8217;ll give you 20,000 yen to play with me.</span></p>
<p> He did not give a clear answer.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> Shiiki gave 10,000 yen to the female student,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Shiiki gave the 10,000 yen to the female student, but this, too, was not for the purpose of prostitution.</span></p>
<p> Shiiki also stated that he did not intend to give the money to the female student for prostitution. He said that he was responsible for the incident, but he forgot the important part and left the matter to the female student&#8217;s statement, which was a sham of remorse. The prosecutor said,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The prosecution stated, &#8220;The crime of taking advantage of the victim&#8217;s immature judgment in order to satisfy his own sexual desires is despicable and malicious. Although he is facing up to the facts, his attitude in his statement cannot be said to be sufficient.</span></p>
<p> The defendant, whose face was flushed, was sentenced to five years in prison. Shiiki, his face flushed, looked up at the heavens. The defense, on the other hand, asked for a suspended sentence, saying that Shiiki had shown remorse and promised never to do it again, and that he had reached a settlement with the victim and had already paid compensation for the damage.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> When asked, &#8220;Do you have anything final to say?&#8221;</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I think my path to become a teacher and national politician has been closed, but I would like to make use of my experience and strive to be a force behind the scenes for the good of society and the nation.&#8221;</span></p>
<p> I would like you to start by becoming fully aware of the crimes you have committed. The verdict will be handed down on February 3.</p>
