Iwao Hakamada (Japanese: 袴田 巖, Hepburn: Hakamada Iwao, born 10 March 1936) is a Japanese former professional boxer who was sentenced to death on 11 September 1968 for a 1966 mass murder that became known as the Hakamada Incident.2 On 10 March 2011, Guinness World Records certified Hakamada as the world’s longest-held death row inmate. In March 2014, he was granted a retrial and an immediate release when the Shizuoka District Court found there was reason to believe evidence against him had been falsified.3 In September 2024, Hakamada was acquitted in a retrial by the Shizuoka District Court.4 Hakamada’s innocence was confirmed in October 2024, when the prosecution waived its right to appeal.5 -Wiki
I doubt the dog is upset about it. That’s what the cop gets for leaving his lunch where the dog could get it! Any dog would take it. What was the evidence, him licking his chops?
Fifty percent more of what? If two percent of first borns end up in jail then only three percent of younger siblings end up in jail. On the other end, if 66 and 2/3rds % of first borns get jailed then all younger siblings do too.
We seem to be getting a lot of push back over that overly broad statement about siblings. As a younger sibling, the closest I got to jail was working in one. BION.

A guy was watching TV as his wife was out cutting the grass during the hot summer afternoon. He finally worked up the energy to go out and ask his wife what was for dinner.
The wife was quite irritated about him sitting in the air conditioned house all day while she did all the work, so she scolded him. “I can’t believe you’re asking me about dinner right now! Imagine I’m out of town, go inside and figure dinner out for yourself.”
So he went back in the house and fixed himself a big steak, with potatoes, garlic bread and a tall glass of iced tea.
The wife finally walked in about the time he was finishing up and asked him, “You fixed something to eat? So where’s mine??”
“Huh? I thought you were out of town.” he replied.

Ice, ice, baby. I guess Ice’s partner didn’t believe in sharing. Ice should have bit him too!

Too bad that Iwao still had to serve an almost-life term.

The older ones are more likely to end up in libraries and parks.

I wonder what they’ll have to pay him for 56 years of his life stolen!

It turns out older siblings are also %50 more likely to end up in jail.

I’m sure glad that there are no comments trying to make a joke by playing with Mr Hakamada’s name.

So if Hakamada didn’t do it, who did? Does anybody care after so long a time?
