広島県福山市で4日、生後2カ月の男児が自宅で殺害された事件で、県東部こども家庭センターに虐待を疑う通告が8月下旬に寄せられていたことが県への取材でわかった。県は「ネグレクトの疑いがある」と判断し、市職員が自宅を訪問したが、祖母とともにいた男児に虐待の疑いはなく、再訪問する予定だったという。

家庭センターへの通告は8月22日にあり、「夜中に赤ちゃんが1人きりになっているのではないか」という内容だった。県の担当者は「子どもが亡くなっているので、対応に全く問題がなかったとは言えない」としている。

また、福山東署は7日、司法解剖の結果、男児の死因は窒息の可能性が高いと発表した。男児の頭にポリ袋をかぶせてうつぶせに寝かせたとして、殺人容疑で逮捕された会社員の少年(18)は男児の父親で、容疑を否認しているという。男児に異変が起きてから約4時間後に母親が110番通報しており、署が経緯を調べている。男児は父親と母親の3人暮らしだった。

Bereaved families' campaign to abolish the statute of limitations for attempted murder cases Statute of limitations has been passed for attempted robbery and murder in Nagoya

The 2010 revision of the Penal Code abolished the statute of limitations for serious crimes such as murder, but attempts were excluded, and the 2002 attempted robbery and murder case in Nagoya city reached its statute of limitations after 15 years. The victim, Yoshitaka Yasuda, is now in a wheelchair and continues to work with his wife to abolish the statute of limitations. Despite the prefectural police's erroneous explanation and the accompanying resolution passed by the Diet, no concrete consideration has been given to abolishing the statute of limitations for attempted crimes.
