I wish some people could bring links from respected sources to back up their claims about how awful the Japanese prisons are. It's certainly true that they're different, but well, everything's just so different in Japan. I believe nothing happens if you let the soap fell down in the shower in a Japanese prison.

The info isn't really hard to find.

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Japanese+prison+conditions+

I did as thy sayeth:

If convicted of murdering Nicola Furlong, Richard Hinds could face up to 10 years in an adult prison, where he may be forced to sleep on tatami mat floors without heating in winter, bath communally, and be required to undertake educational programmes aimed at understanding the grief of his victim’s family.

Police: Karpeles, tell us why, how and what you did with them bitcoins on Mt Gox or you will be forced to take communal baths.
Mark: Communal baths? Now you tell me, otherwise I would've have spewed as much as I had to date. From now on, mums the word. About the no heat threat, you did noticed that I'm a blubbering whale, didn't you?

He is going to FUCHU, which is best described as "hell on earth". If Marc goes there, he will be changing a lot.

Quote
It is likely that, after undergoing an evaluation to determine his physical and mental condition, Mr Hinds would be imprisoned at Fuchu prison in western Tokyo, which is one of Japan’s largest prisons whose staff are well-versed in handling non-Japanese inmates.

"Well versed" doesn't mean, that the prison staff is trained to be nice to foreigners, but that they slap them in the face everytime they didn't understand. Just like the "protection cell" ("hogobo") is not there to protect you, but to torture.

I know that the prisons shouldn't be a nice place to be in but this is just too much. Maybe they are trying to affect other people with the harsh prisons, so they will not do any sort of crime, drugs or other criminal activities Tongue

Apparently Japanese prisons have lots of rules that are very strictly enforced. For example, rules are things like you must close your eyes when you eat and you must ask the permission of a guard to wipe the sweat off your forehead. Apparently inmates are watched by guards incessantly, so if you need to ask permission to scratch or something, then a guard is standing by handy to do that.

Violating the least rule results in "solitary confinement", which is not just being left alone in a room like in the United States. In Japan the little room, which is more like a closet, has some metal loops in the wall. They strap this leather and metal straight jacket thing on you and hook you up to the rings. The belt is wide and can be tightened against the disobeying prisoner's abdomen so that they can only take very shallow breaths. Apparently it is extremely uncomfortable. During meal time (once a day) you get a bowl of soup. Naturally the victim, err prisoner, is not released from the "protective restraints". They just unhook the prisoner from the wall, lay them down by the bowl of soup which is placed on the floor and they lap it up like a dog. Afterwards the prisoner is lifted and hooked up again. They stay in that condition for the term of the solitary confinement, anywhere from 2 to 10 days, depending on how much the prisoner pissed off the guards. There are no bathrooms, of course, so the prisoner just shits his soup diarrhea on himself.

The main human interaction in Japanese prisons, solitary confinement and otherwise, is a guard bitch slapping you and screaming in your face what a worthless piece of trash you are.

These countries miss the whole goal with this actions. You cannot lock someone up and do these things with him or her and think they would be better off, when they get out of there.

The goal is simple.... Take someone out of the community, where he/she did something wrong, and correct this behaviour with skilled people to rehabilitate them and put them back into the community to function

as a normal person. Let's take an example : A girl is raped repeatedly as a child by her father, she grows up and gets married to a drunk... one night he comes home drunk, and demand sex... she says no, and he

rapes her. She has not been helped, when she was small and this rape open up the anger, and she goes into the kitchen and takes a knife and stab him.

So they throw her in jail.... and she has not worked out that anger.. in jail they treat her like filth, and she gets out, and she kills 5 more men..... Did this environment help her or the society?

What should have happened? .... She should have received counceling from a Social worker / support group / Psychiatrist to vent the anger and to heal the pain and the anger, and then treated as a human

to gain self respect, so that she could re-enter the community to make a positve contribution... That is rehabilitation.  Angry  You may be next.. or one of those 5 men who were killed.   

Wow, that's pretty detailed. What age did he start raping you or was it another relative that got raped?

It's just an example.. One of my friends wife work at a Helpline call centre, and this is the type of calls she gets on a daily basis. There are some pretty cruel things going on in this world.

The funny thing is, most people think these kind of things cannot happen with them or their relatives and they are quick to make judgement on other people.

Throwing people in jail without proper rehabilitation, just create a pattern for worse crime. These institutions are not just a punishment, it's a opportunity to improve the community.  Wink 

Well, I can't really disagree with that but I don't know what can be done about it.

I wonder if like some places they have different "levels" of prisons based on the offenders finances. Like in Mexico if you have enough money you can have iPads, cellphones, and tunnels that lead from under your shower to a house a mile away.

I wish some people could bring links from respected sources to back up their claims about how awful the Japanese prisons are. It's certainly true that they're different, but well, everything's just so different in Japan. I believe nothing happens if you let the soap fell down in the shower in a Japanese prison.

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Japanese+prison+conditions+

The OP must have read this story or one similar to it. Everything he describes is in there from having to close your eyes to eat to the thick leather belt treatment. However it says only a tiny fraction of the population is in jail so maybe Mark can pay to reduce his sentence, and if he can't he's unlikely to get raped.

http://www.nytimes.com/1996/07/08/world/prisons-in-japan-are-safe-but-harsh.html

Quote
Three months after being put in a Japanese prison, Kevin M. Mara was about to sit down to a meal when the jailer called out his name.

Mr. Mara, 32 and Connecticut-born, says he then made a horrible mistake: he opened his eyes and looked up. That apparently broke a rule that before eating, each inmate should close his eyes and look downward.

And so, Mr. Mara's lawyers say, he was kept in solitary confinement for 10 days. There, they say, he was accused of "throwing books" and was stripped and restrained by a wide, thick leather belt around his waist, with both hands bound in steel-and-leather cuffs behind his back.

Mr. Mara spent 20 hours this way and was forced to lap up food from a bowl while lying prone on the floor.

In many ways, Japan's prison system is impressive. Overcrowding is not a problem, assaults or rapes among prisoners are rare, drugs and weapons are virtually nonexistent within prison walls, hardly anyone escapes and Japan has an exceptionally small proportion of its population in prison.

The problem, human rights campaigners say, is that the Japanese system achieves this record in part by draconian rules and mind-boggling regimentation.

It is the severe punishment which could prevent criminal. For the country where law is loose, take China for example, more and more bad steal kids in daylight, if the life in prison is painful enough, how could they do so? However, all these should not be connected with belief or religion.

If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.

Pretty simple IMHO, quit feeling sorry for him, he had plenty of opportunities to get help long before it got out of control. If he would have even attempted to bring in people who knew how to run a business properly and actually let them do their jobs, he wouldn't be facing this. He actively covered things up and when he brought people in to help, he wouldn't let them see copies of the books, etc. As one of the former employees stated, it was more like he was looking for a fall guy than actual help to get things in order.

If he's found guilty (he will be, 99% conviction rate) then he'll just pay a restitution fine to payback whoever he scammed in Japan. If he doesn't have all the money he can pay half and then literally sign an IOU to pay later and flee the country. Japan legal system is all about financial restitution like most Asian countries, the majority of people in jail are broke or murderers so couldn't bribe their way out.

Til the very end of op i wasn't sure if it's for serious or some trolling, but in all honesty, if these are facts of prison life in Japan, M.K. is
pretty much f**ked. Even tho he is deinetly guilty for ruining people's lives and money, i don't think any human being accused of non lethal
crime shouldn't be treated like that. This is just terrifying.

That sounds pretty damn horrific. I guess if Karpeles is found guilty & given a jail term he can have no complaints as he probably ruined a lot of peoples lives by stealing/compromising so much money. If you can't do the time then don't do the crime.

As somebody else said above he could have made a lot of money simply by running MtGox normally & legally. If he is found guilty then he has nobody to blame but himself. The pain he caused so many people deserves retribution.

For example, rules are things like you must close your eyes when you eat and you must ask the permission of a guard to wipe the sweat off your forehead. Apparently inmates are watched by guards incessantly, so if you need to ask permission to scratch or something, then a guard is standing by handy to do that.



The main human interaction in Japanese prisons, solitary confinement and otherwise, is a guard bitch slapping you and screaming in your face what a worthless piece of trash you are.

Well, Karpeles is not going to like his experience in the Japanese prisons if he is found guilty.

He should have thought about the consequences of breaking Japanese law...

Funny thing is, that Karpeles could have made a lot of money just by running an honest operation.

well nobody deserves this kind of trestment, society should focus on mental hospitals for people with drug

addictions or unfortunate upbringings, and the guards would be experts at assesing prisoners and would be

nicer to more co-operative prisoners one would think, and Mark should be able to teach them a thing or two

about wat is soon to be the means of trading currency

Violating the least rule results in "solitary confinement", which is not just being left alone in a room like in the United States. In Japan the little room, which is more like a closet, has some metal loops in the wall. They strap this leather and metal straight jacket thing on you and hook you up to the rings. The belt is wide and can be tightened against the disobeying prisoner's abdomen so that they can only take very shallow breaths. Apparently it is extremely uncomfortable. During meal time (once a day) you get a bowl of soup. Naturally the victim, err prisoner, is not released from the "protective restraints". They just unhook the prisoner from the wall, lay them down by the bowl of soup which is placed on the floor and they lap it up like a dog. Afterwards the prisoner is lifted and hooked up again. They stay in that condition for the term of the solitary confinement, anywhere from 2 to 10 days, depending on how much the prisoner pissed off the guards. There are no bathrooms, of course, so the prisoner just shits his soup diarrhea on himself.
