When They Start Pitching Old People Off the Roof, It’s Time for an Intervention
Follow up on a story we covered last week. My favorite paragraph is “September’s deaths follow the stabbing deaths of 19 residents of a home for the disabled in July, and the indictment of a former worker of a nursing home for killing three residents by throwing them off a balcony.” They are throwing people off balconies and you guys are just getting around to investigating now?!! You would think that after the first nursing home resident hit the pavement, the CSI guys would be crawling around looking for clues. C’mon Japan – you are better than this.
