A boy who grew bored of stoning a homeless man instead opted to scald him with boiling water as he slept, saying it was “fun” watching his reaction.
The victim of the attack was a visually and speech impaired 67-year-old homeless man, and apparently made the Chiyoda park his home, by some accounts helping to keep it clean.
The boy, a third year middle schooler from Chiba, had apparently taken up throwing stones at the homeless man a week before the attack – “It was fun watching his reaction… it soon escalated though.”
Escalate it did – his altercations with the man continued and he hatched the plan of using hot water on the man.
He filled a juice carton with boiling water provided at a nearby convenience store (for instant noodles and similar), and then went to the homeless man, who was sleeping on a bench in the park, and threw the boiling water on his upper body.
The attack left the homeless man with severe scalding on his neck and shoulders.
The boy was less than remorseful:
“I went too far. I should have just stuck to throwing rocks at him. I did it as it was fun watching his reaction.”
Police charged him with assault.
Reportedly the boy was accompanied by a gang of 7 classmates who looked on from a distance – they have not been charged.
Japan has few laws against vagrancy, and homeless and piles of their belongings can be seen (and often smelt) in most central Tokyo localities – in many cases rather than tackle the problem directly, authorities attempt to indirectly mitigate it by introducing “anti-homeless” street furniture, chiefly in the form of uncomfortable and oddly shaped public seating.
This can be seen in the photos above (note the armrest in the middle of the bench, to discourage people from lying on it) – it does not seem to have been very effective in dissuading the man in question from making the park his home, however.

My dad, a former policeman, once told me this.
"Doesn't matter where you are. As long as there are human beings, you can always find things that you'll never know a human could pull off."
I believe him, a former APB officer. Patrol units are usually the first ones to check a crime site after someone calls the station, which then radios these suckers to check it out. They're like the first to see everything that's sick about mankind in a 'peaceful' time.
Oh, and those making a comment about Japan needing to be nuked again? Maybe you Americans need to get vaporized by nuclear fireball. I mean, your country gave birth to Ted Bundy and Ed Gein.
Fantastic comment - thank you for your levelheadedness.
But This Was In China...
Without guidance this boy can grow up a sadist. If he can do it to a 67 year old homeless man what's stopping him hurting other people? I did pranks on my grandma when I was a kid but those were playful pranks no physical harm. This kid is a whole different level.
"Grow up to be a sadist"? The little fuck is a sadist NOW.
As long as he learns from his mistake...
What a wonderful little monster his parents have managed to raise.....
Oh? Boil him in hot water. An eye for an eye, that's how it works best. Especially with such dreck of society.
People are People regardless. That kid is going to be so fucked up when he is older. and what bothers me the most is his mom and dad are probably stupid too probably said dumb things like " it was just some homeless guy. disgusting" D: Some homeless people are cool if you get to know them. And he was keeping it clean why couldn't people just be nice to him.
Seriously WTF is wrong with some people?
The homeless man was going blind and had trouble speaking. The man even kept the park clean. This homeless man does not come off as some lunatic with mental issues, the kid however should be looked at. He did this to see his reaction?!?!
This kid clearly does not value the life of all (innocent) human beings equally (at least remotely). I would like to know what lead to this kid being so fucked up
If a serial killer or delinquent donates to charity or does community service of their own free will does that justify their behavior?
i might as well go stoned the kid because its amusing and later rape his girlfriend because i wanted to.
Schoolboy did it for the lulz
i thought this kind of thugs only appear in manga.oh dear
the kid was bored but damn it was stupid of him to do such a thing.
People are cruel no matter where you are from or agae or sex.
Sounds like a disturbed kid who will most likely grow up to become a psychotic killer if he isnt reformed.
What a sociopathic asshole. It's hard to believe that he has any friends. And he feels hardly any remorse, the fucking piece of shit.
off with the child's screwed up head
japan doesnt have law? It looks like, because what the police did to the kid?nothing? We are human no matter what position you are in sociaty.this is just a shame to japan.
Those kids should be made homeless and left to fend for themselves.
That kid obviously has a severe mental defect. He should be euthanized as soon as possible.
Fucking little bitch.
Only death sentence.
little fuckin grimlins. that kid needs to get his ass beat, raw.
Give this kid a boiling water enema, record the process on tape and force him to watch it every day until he's 30. That would make a proper punishment and teach him not to scald people for lulz
I hate this kind of stuff. Victimizing someone just for fun deserves more than just a beatdown. Or maybe it does. One beatdown for every day he threw rocks at the man plus a kick in the balls for the boiling hot water.
This is the future generation?
What a disappointment! As jury, I recommend the boy be castrated for the good of mankind.
A British ancestor seems to be South Korean according to South Korean's scholar. If this hypothesis is certain, the American, the Canadian, the Australian, and New Zealand people's ancestor are South Koreans.
And that has to do with the issue how?
"Let he, who is without sin cast the first stone."

But seriously, there should be severe repercussions for fuckers like him and his 7 accomplices. This isn't just a crime, it's fucking evil. We need vigilante justice!
Ah, the beautiful need to look bad ass in front of school mates.
This is clearly a reenactment of a scene in Gantz :V
my thoughts exactly
Wow his parents probably ALIENS disguised as human LOL
"Japan has few laws against vagrancy, and homeless and piles of their belongings can be seen (and often smelt) in most central Tokyo localities – in many cases rather than tackle the problem directly, authorities attempt to indirectly mitigate it by introducing “anti-homeless” street furniture, chiefly in the form of uncomfortable and oddly shaped public seating."
Reminds me of a reading on spatial segregation in L.A. from Anthropology.
Anti vagrancy laws are not a solution as that's just sweeping the problem under the rug.
They tried such laws in some US cities and it was a complete failure.
It just ties up police resources,wastes the city's money and simply moves the problem to a new location.
Instead they need to implement shelters and rehabilitation programs for homeless people.
What kind of parents does this little twat have?
I bet this little fuck's "punishment" is gonna be having to go to a psychiatrist. People are too lenient with underage punks.
The other way around. Society is too strict with criminals. Either kill them or teach them how to behave. Prison only makes most criminals worse.
Killing them is counterproductive. It's society that raises criminals - therefore for the 'failures' to be killed is hypocritical at best.
We could just as well kill 99.9999% of the world's population so that only the purest saints would be left alive, but then what would be the point of having a 'society' in the first place?
Rather than being lenient, having him undergo therapy is one of the best ways of preventing him from harming people later on. Sending him to a prison will simply ensure that he'll be more careful not to get caught next time; it would be a good choice only if high-quality therapy isn't available.
Whoever designed those benches should have boiling water thrown on them.
Or ass-raped by exploding chairs.
-And what you do unto the least of my creatures, so you do unto me...
Said an "old school New Age Guru" I like a lot.
Problem is, most others who are 'fans' of his I know would probably pick a fight with him if they somehow met him in RL.
"One thing I could never stand was to see a filthy dirty old drunky howling away at the filthy songs of his fathers and going blurp blurp in between as it might be a filthy old orchestra in his stinking rotten guts.
I could never stand to see anyone like that, whatever his age might be, but more especially when he was real old like this one was."
What a fucking dick! I'd love to throw scalding hot water on his ass and see how he'd "react"!
That would make you the same as him so...
or place a mirror in front of the kid to let him see himself "react". Then you won't be the same as him, you're just the facilitator.
it wouldnt make koizumi the same as the little shithead at all~ it'd make him an implement of justice.. the kid did it out of disrespect for humanity, someone doing it to the kid to teach him a lesson would be doing to show the bastard that it 'isnt nice' to hurt people.
Kid needs a hobby.
The whole old-age vs new-age issue in Japan is really sad considering there was a day when the elderly were treated better than this. As for treatment of homeless in general, it has always been pretty bad in Japan apparently, especially the way they try to segregate homeless like they're animals instead of trying to reform or put them at a proper housing.
I agree with the people advocating for that kid to be boiled alive, but this problem goes down to the social level and in the ugly dark corners of Japanese society. And this level of class segregation and maltreatment of homeless might be one of the biggest civil issue Japan faces today.
America is not void of homeless mistreatment etc. Talk about confirmation bias, and besides an eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind, two wrongs do not make a right, slippery slope etc.
lol, here in the USA, politicians only care about their own political agendas and their own benefit. shit never gets done thanks to the fact that its hard to find a politician who actually does what he/she thinks will truly benefit the people the most, nor would you find many that actually look at the big picture.
and about eye for an eye, some people are unable to understand what they do unless it is done to them, commonly referred to as sociopaths, they are becoming more and more common these days...
well at least if such a thing were to take place, where intentional massive douchebaggery is met with stiff punishment, at least thats one way of keeping population in check, and to clean up the murky gene pool...
Politicians motivated only by self-interest are found everywhere not just in the US.
While taking care of the homeless is a noble deed, implementation, funding and public acceptance is one hell of a challenge.
I'd doubt a large percent of a population would help out their poorer kind, especially if they are having a hard time surviving themselves.
(not counting rich bastards w/c makes up <1% of the population and selfish fucks)
Especially here in this hellhole. (Philippines)
*and helping out the homeless is kinda like MARTYRDOM. The compensation for your help would not be immediate/almost none.

*some politicians here even rob foreign donations. someone just shoot them pls
yes, but its has become much more of a problem recently in the USA, yay for being able to get nothing done.
I agree. Places like Boston and Louisiana have some of the most overt cases of a government-run segregation of demographics (let's face it: Whites/Asians vs Hispanic/Black) and such. I'm not saying it isn't ugly elsewhere in the world, though places like Belgium makes a fun sport out of hating the other half.
If anything though, I still kind of see where those policy makers are coming from: This is not an easy issue to solve and segregating, at first, is a temporary fix, but mostly for the 'better half'. Now only if governments around the world realize that the poor MUST be taken care of and people in general has a human right to a job, career and a living, things could get better down the road. Eventually, all nations will have to face this fact or otherwise fall to a yet another bout of insurrections like in the early 1900's where monarchies fell left and right in Europe and helped create World Wars in the process.
kid needs a serious spanking
Kid needs a Falcon Punch in the fucking nads.
The Kid is a Dark Soul publicly executed by electrocution and then dumped into cement that is later poured into a mold to make a bench or shelter for homeless to sleep on.
fuckin' Brats
Pour hot water on his balls and dick for the ultimate epic "ahegao" effect.
Karma will kick that kid in the balls...
And then poor scalding hot water on said balls...
No respect whatsoever...
Someone should just stone him.
Kid's a hero?
Kid needs a DDoSing.
castrate him. don't need these tards producing tardy kids.
kid is a psyco, throw him in a forest and let him survive for a month, if he can, then you have a true soldier at least.
all of your methods are to costly, like i said take the fuck out on a boar and dump him, on a normal patrol for the coast guard (whatever japan calls it) and there you go, a free way to assure the fuck dies.
@makkun No no we don't what to kill the little prick, that is just too nice of a thing to do compared to torture. You see, for less than $50 he can be tied to a table with a large hole in the top main part. Just place bamboo sprouts underneath and tend to them. The bamboo will grow throu him, and it will be painful....trust me on this one it will be truly painful.
that would be too messy. a bullet to the head would be more efficient.. the world does not need more "proven violent" assholes.
Some people are just sick.
Who cares, it's just some homeless bum.
Really, you people seem to be under the impression that it is a decent human being.
Just cap his brains out.
It's not his fault he's homeless. He's a 67 year old who's partially blind and has a speech problem it's kind of hard to find a job in that situation. And since people say he kept the place clean.
@alidan: Who said we're gonna keep him alive?
Someone? You're not gonna join in the fun? *gets slingshot ready*
How many homeless get abused and continue to stay in the same spot?
I should become a judge just to infict eye-for-an-eye on idiots like this.
Those who have a gang of other homeless behind them.
Ambush revenge time!
We regret stoning the kid to death.
Stupid kid. He did keep that place clean. How many homeless do that?
and cost people 30+k a year to keep alive, chuck this piece of shit in the ocean and tell him hes no longer welcome there.
odds he can swim to china or america? if he can, he gets his second chance because there is no fucking way an un assisted human can do that,
Yeah, stoning people is "fun" after all. Seriously, this kid should be charged for attempted murder.
The kid is a psycho, lock him away and throw the key away.
That kid needs to be chained down and forced to live at the park for a month. Then get stoned each day for a few weeks AND THEN have boiling water tossed on him.
And even that would be to good of a punishment for the little shit.
Kid needs some anal fun in jail.
Unlike you I'm not gay, so I don't love seeing that.
I'm sure you love seeing that.
Pedo.
kid needs SPARTA kick.
OMG, the SPARTA Kick should be adopted in our legal system as a punishment for various crimes. And it should be made a public spectacle, that would be so boss. (^_^)
Kid needs a scolding. With boiling water.
you mean scalding
Spanking is my hobby.
the kid needs hentai.
Kid needs to be pushed on a nice train.
hoho i lyk this :p~
The japanese need a new hobby, I think assaulting the homeless, incest and rape are very passe. Try knitting.
You left out school bullying and suicide.
>> I should have just been stoned.
Fixed.
Dear Japan,
"We regret nuking your country. We went too far. We should have just stuck to firebombing Tokyo. We did it as it was fun watching your country burn.”
*sighs*
I have got to say that as an American what you just wrote makes me sick. There should be no regret. We did not go too far. If anything Japan should thank us. If the nukes were not dropped then many many more lives would have been lost. America would have taken the mainland and then where would Japan be?
I think Japan doesn't have to thank America for murdering their people efficiently.
And neither should Americans be "stoned" for what they did. It is "WAR" you know. Its either them or the world. Casualties are expected.
Just think of it as another lesson in history.
