It's the president's fault. It's the subordinate's fault. It's the company's fault. So, what's your responsibility?

Regarding Miuchi,
Sweet inner garden
Even if a false accusation is made, the Public Prosecutors Office says, "It's the prosecutor in charge's problem."
The prosecutor claims innocence, stating it was an act performed as a prosecutor.
The disciplinary action for the problem is the lightest, "oral warning."
I will not answer the questions, hold a press conference, or provide an explanation.
I have never explained the reasons for non-prosecution or the reasons for the disposition.

Real Records: Prosecutor's Case Files

Pressance wrongful conviction case Don't mess with the prosecutors.
"I'm putting my life on the line! Don't underestimate the prosecution!" - Words of a prosecutor pounding on the desk during interrogation (from audio/video recording)
The Osaka District Public Prosecutors Office's special investigation unit arrested Shinobu Yamagishi, former president of Presance Corporation, as an accomplice in embezzlement. He was detained for 248 days, but the cornerstone of his confession was false testimony from a subordinate that was extracted through coercive interrogation. In 2021, his innocence was confirmed. The prosecutor in charge was indicted for special public servant assault and oppression, but he is pleading not guilty at his first trial scheduled for July 2026.
A prosecutor in charge of the slush fund case allegedly invited a woman under investigation to a hotel paid for with public funds and had her stay there (according to news reports).
In July 2026, it was reported that a prosecutor who led the investigation into the LDP faction slush fund scandal at the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office was privately dating a woman he had interrogated as a suspect. He allegedly invited the woman to a hotel paid for with public funds, which was being used for interviews with individuals related to the case, and stayed with her. The woman's testimony was used in court, raising doubts about the fairness of the criminal justice system itself. The Supreme Public Prosecutors Office is currently considering disciplinary action.
Interrogations that even the courts pointed out as "grossly inappropriate" and that showed "weak awareness of the problem within the prosecutor's office."
In the Presans case, the prosecutor's office imposed only the lightest internal disciplinary action, "verbal caution," for the illegal interrogation. In the state compensation lawsuit, the state denied responsibility and contested the case, and a judgment from the Osaka District Court in March 2025, while deeming the interrogation "grossly inappropriate," denied liability for compensation. Even for misconduct that would cripple a private company, no one in the organization takes responsibility.
Request for disclosure of reasons for non-prosecution
We will continue to question "why no prosecution" from the perspective of the complainant/victim. We will pursue accountability by fully utilizing institutional means such as requesting notification of reasons and utilizing the prosecutor's examination committee.
迫
Public Inquiry / Request
We will not end this in a closed room. We will publish all public inquiry letters and requests to the prosecution and the Ministry of Justice on the web, and present the response of "no comment" itself to society as a record.
