An American teaching English in Japan has been arrested for sexually assaulting at least 40 schoolgirls, videotaping himself abusing them in over 600 tapes. He admits to raping one elementary school girl because she “pestered” him, and explains his indecent filming as “creating a record of their transition to adulthood for them.”
The 69-year-old English teacher, an American long term resident of Fukuoka prefecture, was reportedly initially arrested in January on suspicion of indecently assaulting an elementary schooler whom he had been teaching in a classroom he operated at his home.
Police launched an investigation in response, soon uncovering evidence that he had assaulted another pupil some years ago, charges he admitted, saying “she was pestering me so I did her.”
Police searched his residence, finding over 600 videotapes. Analysing the contents of the confiscated tapes, they found evidence that the teacher had assaulted at least 40 schoolgirls over a 10 year period, most of whom appeared to be in elementary school.
He explained to police that he was “creating a record of their transition from childhood to adulthood to show to them later.”
His modus operandi was to call the girls to his home on some pretext, such as holding a “study session,” and then contrive to film them there. He secured their silence by telling them “Keep this a secret or your parents and teacher will be arrested.”
Police found no evidence he had been selling the tapes, suggesting they were for personal use.
He faces charges of rape, indecent assault and manufacturing child pornography. Police investigations continue.
English teachers in Japan, generally unqualified and completely unregulated, have a reputation for being scurrilous womanisers who substitute the colour of their skin for actual teaching qualifications, although cases of them actually molesting schoolgirls are rare, especially compared to the blighted state of the Japanese teaching profession.
Their already dubious reputation seems unlikely to improve in light of this incident, however.

Looks like that lucky number 69 ain't so lucky no more.
69 years old huh.......... =/
its wrong and sad =X
Does it bother anyone that a 69 year old man is getting more loli pussy than you are?
( Let the down-voting commence. XD )
Anyone can coerce and rape lolis, like anyone can coerce and rape womeon. That's hardly a marvelous achievement and you're bound to end up in jail eventually. The mark of a true master is having THEM come to YOU BEGGING for it.
Well he did say they were 'pestering' him. So maybe they were begging him for it?
LOL 69 (years old)
And this is a surprise to anyone why?
he is a scientist and all his videotapes must be published on internet, for educative and science purposes
I just want to say that as an American I am sickened and ashamed to share the same nationality of that man and of what happened. Also, I am sorry. That is all I can say.
WTF? You must live your life in a misery of self hatred every time you turn on a TV or read a newspaper. Quit acting like an attention-getting emo boy.
Please try to remembe that this man is one out of three hundred million.
consensual doesn't mean shit if they're underage....why is beyond me but hey.
He is living his HentaiDream, funny thing is the girls saw this as something normal after watching all the crazy anime-manga-hentai stuff.
I loled when i heard his explanation, why he was filming them.
Another day in the eastern continent
So a white guy gets charged with rape, but if he was Japanese he would have been given a raise?
No he would get a 3 month suspension and then a raise upon return
ワロス。
Kinda like how SC lacks any kind of journalistic qualifications and tries to hide it with incendiary claims and a thesaurus?
I hate to point this out, but if these girls were REALLY forcibly raped, they would have IMMEDIATELY told someone..... their parents, another teacher, etc.
Something stinks about this story, to be blunt.... I'm betting more than the sexual encounters (at least most of them) were consensual.
Well, the tapes would tell the tale, wouldn't they?
"Damn American attacking our women!"
Is the first thing I imagine 2ch saying to this article.
our "loli".
*fixed
Okay, first off.... as to the elementary school girl who was supposedly forcibly raped.... WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T SHE TELL SOMEONE IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE FACT?
Something stinks about this, and I am thinking that the 'rape' was not a rape at all.
The more I hear about things like this, the more skeptical I am of these girls protestations that they were raped, even when they are elementary schoolers or even younger than that.
Damn, I wanted to teach English in Japan for a few years. Hope this kind of thing doesn't effect how they view me there.
Well, at least he didn't 'DO' the Kindergarden-ers.
I doubt he wouldn't have thought about it. He got caught, but child rapists are like torrent trackers, you shut down one and another takes his place. Let's hope they'll catch the next one sooner.
Uh... no. The best thing that could be done would be to make pedosexuality legal and start being S K E P T I C A L of these 'rape' allegations.
90% or more of the time, the encounters are CONSENSUAL encounters that went too far for the child's liking, and as I told my daughters..... if that happens, it's your own fault for starting it in the first place!
I also told them that if someone tries to touch them without their permission more than once, to YELL AND SCREAM for help from someone.
I am going to FUCKING KILL THIS PEDO SHIT MYSELF IF I HAVE TO! FUCKER DIE! Die and die fast pedo shit! You make me puke!
go get him tiger
Now this old fart had to go and worsen my chances of working in Japan, if only for a few years.
"most English teachers are unqualified perverts"
What the fuck, where did you find this?
To teach English in Japan you need a FdA followed by a BA in any subject.
Then you need a CELTA or TEFL qualification which in total takes 3 to 4 years.
Otherwise you have no hope of being a teacher in Japan, let alone a teacher.
The only schools which allow TEFL/CELTA only certificates are companies like English First.
And even they only teach pupils 18+.
Most of the teaching sector is 80% female yet whenever they fuck a male/female student its "Oh yeah I would like to be her student" but when its a man its "All male teachers are fucking pedophiles who should be locked up" ergo "All men are fucking pedophiles and should be locked up"
Please stop this double standard and verify that there is a much bigger sector of good working male teachers, you just never hear about them becuase they are never on the public radar.
What you are saying for the first few paragraphs applies to the real teachers who would work in public schools. The one mentioned above, however, is an unqualified one, holding private "study sessions". It is true that many Americans go to countries such as Japan or korea to teach English without any qualifications.
Well in some cases the girls end up just fine later in their lives, read http://newgon.com/CPP/WhyGuilty.htm

he obviously like the lolis

- Really? Is that the case? That may be the case for American teachers but not all teachers are "unqualified" Someone has a bone to pick or is an extremely racist Japanese person...
This guy is scum. But there really is no reason to be alarmed. This is just one of the rare cases that involves a foreign teacher. It really does pale in comparison with the countless cases involving Japanese teachers. Sadly though, this might give ammunition to some quarters to start painting foreigners in a bad light.
Kiri!!! :3 She was my favorite in Cross+Channel.
...on a related note to the article itself,
600 tapes!? And how did they not find out about all this over the ten year period? I hope he gets a really long sentence for this. Not that he'd be able to serve a really long one to full term, considering his age.
exactly - 40 victims, 600 tapes? that's fifteen tapes a victim. even if he filmed from multiple angles each time, that's a huge number of films for our Humbert Humbert here.
funny how I read that as "rape friend" for some reason
I'm sorry but this is bullshit. When it's a woman doing boys all the comments you see are "fap fap fap" "why couldn't it happen to me" "Kid should be so lucky."
When a man does it now it's all "fuck that bastard" "hope he rots in jail" "pervert!"
Why the double standard?
Because the majority of people that comment on those articles are horny males.(myself included.)
It's hard to take advantage of a young boy considering by the time it happens they more than likely already want it. You can't rape the willing, so to speak.
On the other hand, a crotchety old crusty man taking advantage of girls under the age of consent (to the point of elementary!) of course people are going to be outraged.
Some sort of reverse-kali-morality or something ;)
Seriously though, "elementary" grade spans rather large period of time. It is kid at the begining, and it /often/ is fully, sexually developed person at the end (and more so if we talk about females, that by average develop faster). So what kind of "elementary" are we talking exactly about here ?
Either way, in the end it's all on person-by-person basis. You can find 16yr olds not ready at all (rarely), and 12yr olds fully ready (often). It also depends on area and time period (not so long ago, 20yr old without kids was considered old, unmarried, notwanted obasa - and for a good reason, when average person's lifetime was around 30 years). And generic age of consent set at 13 is still in effect in Japan afaik (overridable by prefectures though)
Of course it's no excuse for what he did - forcing, assault, further blackmailing - no questions/discussion about that. But ... 600 tapes ? That's years of "hardwork". I can't help asking question, how many of his victims were really ones, and how much did media bloat the news in our "pedo-paranoia" times.
An old dude raping little grade school girls. All while pretending to give English lessons.
That's some screwed up shit.
what a cool american isaku!
sick americans...
its not all Americans. shut it.
"English teachers in Japan, generally unqualified and completely unregulated, have a reputation for being scurrilous womanisers who substitute the colour of their skin for actual teaching qualifications, although cases of them actually molesting schoolgirls are rare, especially compared to the blighted state of the Japanese teaching profession."
This statement is blatant racism and gross exaggeration of a problem that exists but is no worse than what Japanese male teachers are doing every day in Japanese schools. All the time you read about Japanese male teachers doing this. Why is there no outrage concerning their motives for teaching and lack of qualifications? The percentage of American male teachers using the job as a way to meet girls is very low. Yes it happens but Japanese men have sex with their students and a rate that would stun Americans back in America. Don't stereotype. Don't exaggerate the big bad American myth. I know several people who've taught in Japan and was one of the best maturing experiences in their life while ex-students still send emails/cards to thank them for English language lessons. It's really bad idea to create a growing monster profile for the western guy teaching English. Most of them are working hard, trying to earn money, and enjoying a challenging life experience. This one man is a creep just like I've read about creepy Japanese men doing the very same thing. School system (culture?) has a problem not doing enough to protect the young girls. They look the other way too much and make it shameful for girls to report incidents.
And where are the videos? Link plox.
AMERICA FUCK YEAH
40 schoolgirls? Hope he will get death sentence like in China!
Don't worry. Kira will punish him!
;-)
I guess that this guy watched too many hentai and mistook it with the real life.
If anyone cares here are my thoughts on this topic:
1.
Children do not understand what sexual actions are about.
2.
99.99% :) of aduldt men are perverts and they will eventually hurt the loli they have relationship with. (Even if they didn't plan it at first).
3.
Real-life lolis don't behave like adult, experienced prostitutes. That happens only in hentai and in pervert's imagination.
4.
Sitting in a jail cell with 4-5 horny, muscular inmates is something that a HETEROSEXUAL man should AVOID AT ALL COSTS. (And a main reason why most dudes don't engage in relationship with lolis).
5.
When a loli grows up she may ditch you and by that time you will be too old to find a normal woman.
The conclusion:
We should let the dreams stay the way they are - in our heads.
:-)
You seem to have an interest in having sex with 3D loli.
However, an interest in Anime and/or Hentai does not indicate a desire to kill, rape, and have sex with children. Such a weak willed individual might even be a danger by default. Even if an individual does have such desires, so long as that individual does not act on those desires, what harm is there?
Regarding your statements.
1: There is no science that determines when someone is competent enough to have sex. Most people are obvious not competent from birth to death but we don’t ban/sterilize them or make people take a test to determine this…not yet.
2: Perversion is subjective…but Survival is obviously not wrong = Sex is not wrong = Desire to have sex is not wrong…perhaps I am wrong about perversion always being subjective. Still, you seem to be biased for reasons I do not fully understand. Even if most would agree with you it does not indicate that you are right but that most are simply narrow minded.
3: I dare to wonder how you would know this.
4: I don’t know why most men do not engage in relationships with lolis. I don’t even know if most, when growing up, do not. Should they then be forced to lock away their memories? However, some people are actually not attracted to 3D lolis but actually like matured 3D *(adults?).
5: I’m sorry for your loss?
The conclusion:
I had fun writing this, I think.
You seem to twist my words on purpose. I'll speak plainly so your simple mind could understand:
Actually I'm NOT interested in 3D lolis. That's because of the 5 facts I stated in my previous post.
1.
Feeling scientific, eh kid? Then next time educate us with some statistics on the fact.
I thought we are living in a civilised world where children don't have sex.
For most dudes (me included) it's like this:
No boobs = no fun.
2.
There is no such thing as a "good pedophile". A pervert is a pervert - plain and simple.
3.
Welllll... That's because I never seen a girl behaving like that... Have you?
4.
You should read 4th point of my previous statement one more time and ask yourself wether or not you would like to find yourself in such situation.
I'm sure I wouldn't.
5.
I havent "lost" anything because I never looked for it.
By "we" I mean users of SC, because I noticed a strange fascination with lolis around here. At first I thought people here write this kind of shit for fun, but after reading some posts (including yours) I started to wonder if those are "just jokes".
I hope that my translation will help you to understand the topic, before you falsely accuse (not to mention OFFEND) anyone else.
The conclusion:
I had no fun writing this, but your simple mind made it necessary.

Safe to say it's going to give all of us American would be English teachers a bad name. I myself am aiming to be one, but this Asshole has to Ruin everything, Hope He burns in hell, and may suffer the worst for it.
I like how he was 69 years old.
Hopefully none of the girls were virgins. It would be a real shame if those lolis had lost their virginity to this old fuck.
He'd been there for a long time, unfortunately, and his filming their 'transition to adulthood' suggests that to me that he singled out victims among multiple students, looking for the ones most likely to actually be virgins. Humanity's ugly side, eh?
So if they weren't virgins it'd be okay?
...
It still wouldn't be ok, I'm just saying that it would be worse for them if they were forced to have their first time with a 69 year old.
i doubt that they were forced
Considering that they were elementary schoolers I would say that if they were not virgins at the time of the rape then the police would have a whole other case to start investigating ...
Blackmail == force. If even that's all it was. Most likely it was physical coercion.
"most of whom appeared to be in elementary school."
Unforgivable! Anyone that rapes lolis deserves to be prison raped for the rest of their life (too bad this bastard doesn't have much life left).

Top 5 places where time from date to sex is shortest, men reporting:
1. Fukuoka Prefecture – 57 days

I think they just lost their edge on the others.
Nah, that's why it took him 10 years to get 40 lolis.
On prison he'll be the everyone's loli!
Probably not. Japanese prisons aren't like American prisons. They are actually under the control of the guards. No PC bullshit there like TVs and exercise rooms or even personal items in the cells.
So all prisoners are 70+?
hahahahaha
but on a more serious note. 600? I mean if it was 599 it would be alright but 600.
Great! Fukheads like this are only going to make it harder for people like me to teach abroad.
Yeah. I'm pretty sure you want to "teach" abroad. But the old man already beat you to it.
lmao
it can't be helped
lol i see wut u did thar
This will help re-inforce the Japanese stereotype that "most crimes are committed by foreigners".
I guess we're all glad, right? Now whenever we go there, they'll closely keep an eye on us as if we've raped their little kiddies. I can't blame them as most going their are weeaboos.
That's really !@#$ed up!
with all these kinds of incident in japan, I'm starting to wonder if any japanese girl is still virgin by the time they reach 15 or any american girls
I can imagine if it was middle to high school kids in puberty and have been exposed to a lot of foreigner outlets, thus looking up to foreigners, and possibly not minding if a foreigner teacher approached them for sex in the name of romance. I'm sure they'll happily accept it... but this is elementary kiddies we're talking about.
3 feet tall, worst than a flat chest, ... and just doesn't compare with the grown flesh.
Not a fan of Kodomo no Jikan, I take it.
isn't that pic from cross+channel? :D
Kiri Sakura from cross+channel …bloody spoiler too. I have been making slow progress across multiple eroge and visual novels. *sigh*
How is that a spoiler? In eroge and VNs, you're supposed to fuck girls.
Some rather awesome visual novels lack sex and prioritize character development and story such as “Ever17” and “Clannad” (not “Tomoyo After”). You might be interested in checking out the visual novel database. You might also want to look at the kinetic novels such as “Planetarian” and “Narcissu” as they lack sexual content as well.
Cross+Channel has a fair bit of sexual content. I suppose it could be a spoiler in knowing the location.
there,now you can't blame the japanese teacher to be lolicon,even the foreigner do it.
which mean:the japanese schoolgirl are just too hot to restrain yourself.
no 'foreigner'
AMERICAN Damn they're all rape us with economical crisis
"American economical crisis"...?
Ever heard of a country called Greece which is causing the EU a bit of a headache? Bad times is all over the place, pardner.
.....so an AMERICAN in JAPAN isn't a foreigner?
wow.....at home everywhere aren't they...
only in japan
Oh, of course this only happens in Japan.
Just ignore that Japan has a much lower rate of child sexual abuse than other nations.
Just ignore the teachers in America caught having sex with their students.
Just ignore all the Catholic priests that have abused children for decades, and ignore the Catholic church that hid them.
Just ignore the facts and spread your rantings.
just ignore that catholics aren't supposed to have wifes or sex at all,masturbating.And that is one limit they would have to get rid of to reduce the abuse by some people.
priests i forgot to add there
elementary school girl -.-
he got nothing to do la?
rape high school girl stupid sensei
10 Years of success. And now he'll retire and go to prison, where he can slack off. Good thinking of him!
I don't think they treat child rapists in prison very well..
This is a Japanese prison not an American one. He will be treated like a hero. Most of them are there because they stole a pantsu or something.
Damn, I hope this doesn't hurt anyone's prospects who'd been planning on going over and teaching English...
It is true that they don't ever have qualifications though, and also true that Japan has a horrendous record for teaching intelligible English.
Crap... And here I am, studying English philology... I never wanted to be a teacher, but it's a completely different matter if it's Japan we're talking about.
I Japan every dream can come true, really envious of this old guy, he spend all 10 good years molesting young japanese ladies, now he will just die peacefully in jail(with 69 years-old, in jail or free, he will likely do the same boring things).
Its worth it.
yes... i didn't know this was possible. i think i'm off to japan with my toefl certificate lol
well, SaruDa, u gotta first get qualified. Then, u need to dye your skin yellow and your hair black.
Now u can teach in japan w/o any problems!
because japanese people have yellow skin huh. a good lot of them are whiter than caucasians
It probably will. Though people who go there should at least try to have some teaching qualifications first... >_>
Also:
“creating a record of their transition from childhood to adulthood to show to them later.”
Sick bastard. Hope he spends the rest of his life in jail. >_>
But if he spends the rest of his life in jail, how will he be able to show the girls the record of their transition from childhood to adulthood later?
Do you want this man's life work to be in vain?
Well, seeing as he's that old, that'll probably be true anyway.
You don't have any prospects if you intending on teaching English in Japan.
I think he meant that it's a tough market, these days. Even for highly trained ESL teachers with degrees, qualifications, and experience, jobs are tough to come by. And that's just in the commercial field. They can afford to pick and choose these days. And as for getting into the state system...good freakin' luck.
Feel free to give it a try, though. If you get in you'll have a great time.
if you are intending
^
missed a little something
No, I meant that English teachers in Japan really are a bunch of hopeless reprobates.
Cool overbearing misconceptions and stereotypes, bro. Especially for those of us with teaching certifications who wish to teach there for something a little extra on our résumé, not to mention the ability to visit a foreign country and experience its culture as something more than a tourist.
The question that bugs me is - what's worse?: Japanese trying to speak English or English trying to speak Japanese (wapanese)? Hmm..
Yes you are wapanese for learning another language to communicate with people =/
I guess people aren't good at reading sarcasm over the internet.
But I used an emoticon =/
I have been downed for some reason =C
I don't understand it either, unless its because your statement seems wrong.
ill soften that negative sentence:
"Yes you are a multilinguist, learning another language to understand their local customs by communicating with people."?
Unless you want to communicate in smoke signals, someone must learn the other language.
I hereby declare that anyone who uses the words "wapanese" or "weaboo" in an attempt to make himself seem cool should be shot in the face. All in agreement, vote AYE.
This anon is just angry and knows nothing about the world.
The V-sign is awesome. Archers ftw.
Fucking weaboo
They use the V-sign in the UK.
Smoke signal(like morse code, sign language or whistled language) has their own signaling system and understanding in each country, it isn't a global code.
I really don't know if even exist a global code, maybe globish is one.
good 'ol middle finger seems universal enough.
