Forthcoming. Rape is still a crime in Japan. It's only a matter of time before they're caught. From Wiki: Japan has been criticized for giving lenient punishments for some crimes, most notably rape (which until 2004 carried a typical sentence of 25 years in prison, and a theoretical maximum of fifteen). The penalties in the Criminal Law were revised and reinforced in 2004. Therefore, the lower limit of the penalty of rape is now three years in prison, with a theoretical maximum of twenty.

A lack of serious punishment would also deter women from coming forward with rape cases.

the lawyer says at 4:40 "the laws in Japan are more concerned with protection of personal property than the protection of womens right" (not to be raped). It looks to me like the rape club is a massive criminal enterprise with the sole purpose of supplying victims to the club members and also making money. Yet only one person gets jail time, 2 yrs? This is serious, hard core criminal activity going on here. And they were caught. Where is the punishment?

and your logic is truely shocking. Do you live in the US? We have what is called "freedom of speech". The US is not a fascist country, at least not yet. We will become a fascist country if more people start thinking like you. How does questioning criminal behavior lead to economic collapse?? and World War 3??? There are lots of people documenting and speaking out about the crimes commited by soldiers and mercenaries in Iraq. I would call those people patriots.

actually I dont think it is a fair comparison to compare crimes committed by an occupying military force to crimes commited by wealthy affluent college kids upon their supposed friends and classmates. Of course they are both reprehensible, but the rise of the latter is an indication of a very different underlying pathology. We dont want civil society to mirror the behaviors of an occupying military force, right? Is the rape club OK because some soldiers commited some rapes during WW2?
