An odd report in today’s Mainichi reveals that “a summary court judge resigned last year after being reprimanded for molesting an employee of a sex shop in Kobe”.
The incident occurred in October last year, and the resignation followed a month later. The “60-year-old judge” is said to have bitten a woman who worked in sex shop in Kobe.
The 60-year-old judge at the Hirakata Summary Court bit the lip of a Kobe sex shop employee in her 20s on Oct. 6, last year, injuring her, according to the district court. He is also accused of demanding excessive sexual services from her.
Excessive? I had no idea a sex shop worker was the same as a ’sex worker’. Surely any demand for sexual services was ‘excessive’? And how the lip-biting came about… the mind boggles.
Though he could’ve been charged with ‘indecent assault resulting in injury’, he paid the woman compensation to the tune of ¥1.7 million in an out-of-court settlement, so that, as far as the authorities were concerned, was that. So no messy paperwork to sort out. Everyone’s a winner.
The smart motivated kids who would have good grades no matter what get a nice bonus (courtesy of taxpayer dollars that could be going elsewhere) for doing nothing different. The not-so-smart, disadvantaged, or unmotivated slackers will probably still not improve, and the $$ system will only make them feel worse about themselves.
