Well. Tetsuya’s stoopid. All he apparently had to do was *not* confess to the murder and the prosecutors and police would have botched the job, the judge would have become highly confused and Tetsuya would have been given a walk after a seven year trial.

I think the police need to change the question they ask crims like this. Presumably the police want a reason for the crime.
And so we get “I was financially struggling”, or “I was frustrated at work” or “I couldn’t control my anger”.
That’s not a reason. That’s an excuse. If asked for the reason, the correct answer would of course be “I’m a worthless piece of scum who doesn’t value human life”.
