Top Comments of this video!! :3
The reason Japanese police had such a high âsuccessâ rate when it came to solving crimes is that it also had one of the highest rates of wrongful convictions, and even to this day has a 99% conviction rate; which means that if you are on trial in Japan, you are almost definitely going to be convicted.

The part about humiliating the police...the fact is with such a high conviction rate, there will always be innocent people and people with minor demeanors put in jail. A lot of Japanese media that involve the law are written with this in mind. To me, it's difficult to overlook the idea that perhaps they just wanted to show the police they couldn't force solve everything as a kind of revenge.

24:36 They actually did figure out who the Somerton Man was!! He wasn't a secret spy or anything, he was just a dude that was really sad and lonely who wrote a lot of poems about death and was violent with his wife :/

I knew an ex special forces guy that claimed to keep a ceramic knife in a shower because you never know when you might have to defend your home and anything else would have rusted in the shower. I remember thinking he was crazy until these two gave their explanation of how they would defend themselves in the bath. I guess I'll be buying a ceramic knife now.

For postmortem: Why didnt you mention that the police captain set himself on fire because he was so ashamed that he couldn't solve the case? That event led to the monster with 21 faces to stop because they respected that so much. Such a important part of the case so I'm surprised yall left it out.

For post mortem: Japanese police is notorious for closing cases any way possible to keep up appearances, beating the confessions out of the suspects and convicting innocent people. This was definitely done to humiliate them publicly. Maybe someone with a grudge? Someone whose friend or relative was a victim of the police brutality and incompetence? This feels personal
