JAPANESE JUSTICE
Yay! A skating scandal that isn't connected to judging or sexual abuse, but boring, old embezzlement.
(Sorry, as someone who writes murder mysteries for a living, I find money to be the second weakest motive for killing. It's just so dry and impersonal and, in the end, trivial. I prefer love, lust, jealousy, betrayal -- the juicy motives. For those wondering what my least favorite motive it -- it's serial killer. In that case, it's dry and impersonal -- once removed).
But, as I was saying, The Japanese Times On-Line reports:
Police arrested former Japan Skating Federation head Katsuichiro Hisanaga and two others Tuesday on suspicion that they embezzled 5.8 million yen from the body in 2002, sources said. The three have admitted to police that they embezzled the money.
Yawn.
