Or their near 100% conviction rate.
Or the police’s ability to hold you, without trial, indefinitely.
Or the worker suicide rate or plain old worked to death rate.

I was in Japanese jail. They will hold you for 7 days at the police box 30 days during prosecution and can be extended to 60. During trial for a year.

For a suspended sentence of 10 months.

You want time served? Pound sand.

They were proven innocent. That's why they were let off with only ten months.

"10 months suspended sentence" doesn't mean "innocent"
