Kazuyoshi Miura’s “defamation trial” recalls the “Ross allegation” of Kazuyoshi Miura in the “500,000 yen settlement from a slanderous man.

On April 8, former annoying YouTuber Hezuma Ryu announced on his X

《I went to the home of an unemployed 48-year-old man in Kanagawa Prefecture, who had filed a disclosure request, to make a home visit with a lawyer. They said they would call the police, but since I did not enter the premises, it did not constitute trespassing.

I was able to settle the case for 500,000 yen, so I will not disclose his name or address. He had no savings, so I exploited his parents.

I reported. Then, on the Internet, there were comments such as

Isn’t that a threat?

On the other hand, some people criticized the report, saying, “Isn’t that a threat?

On the other hand, the fact that she went with a lawyer shows that she is smart.

On the other hand, the fact that he is going with a lawyer makes me feel that he is smart.

However, since they are accompanied by a legal professional, it seems to cost a lot of money,

Since disclosure requests cost 300,000 yen per person, even 500,000 yen is only a profit of 200,000 yen. Moreover, since the change to Elon Musk, it has become more difficult to request disclosure. （Even if you request disclosure, most of them are unemployed people in their 40s and 50s. So I’m just hoping to recover the money while making a story out of it.

He also confesses his “financial situation.

There is a lot of backlash and criticism, but above all, this action could serve as a deterrent to slander. There are many celebrities who are troubled by unreasonable voices on the Internet, and some of them become mentally trapped and become unable to engage in their activities.

(A person involved in a wide-show news program). Hezuma’s behavior reminded me of Kazuyoshi Miura, the “Los Angeles suspect.

Mr. Miura has continued to file civil suits against the media for defamation of character without a lawyer. He has filed 476 defamation lawsuits against the mass media, winning 80% of the cases. He claimed to have won more than 100 million yen in judgments and settlements.

He even won one million yen in a defamation lawsuit against the Weekly Bunshun, which sparked the “Ross allegations” report. He has won so many lawsuits in a row that he has even published a book titled “No Lawyer Needed: A Manual for Winning Lawsuits Against Himself.

The Miura trial is also the reason why the media now cover the handcuffs and waist rope on suspects in arrest videos and photographs. There is no doubt that the trial he brought was the catalyst that raised the media’s awareness of human rights.

The method used by Mr. Miura, who filed a civil suit, is different from that of Mr. Hezuma, who stormed into his home accompanied by his lawyer. However, there may be a possibility that his actions may cause a change in the slander and libel on the Internet, just as Mr. Miura’s trial did.

The Internet has become a lawless zone. What kind of impact will Mr. Hezuma’s actions really have?
