Keita Motono, a 25-year-old teacher at a junior high school in Yokohama City, has been arrested for indecent assault. The charges are that Motono touched the body of a female high school student on her way home at 10:30 at night on August 13th.
The 17-year-old third grader was walking home in Yokohama when Motono apparently forced himself on her upper body.
The unnamed girl was left physically unhurt by the attack and Motono has admitted his guilt.
Motono approached the girl from behind. “If you make a noise I’ll kill you,” he threatened. “Give me your panties. Let me touch you.”
While the media is reporting that Motono was able to grope the student’s modest chest, it is unknown if Motono got away with the prized panties. As know, such used panties are the Holy Grail for a certain type of man here.
The girl remembered his face and this led to Motono’s downfall.
There have been 14 such incidents in Yokohama in the same manner since late March. Motono became a teacher in Yokohama in April this year. Is this just a coincidence? No doubt the boys in blue are putting their moves on Motono to get him to confess to being a serial street panty thief.
Perhaps appropriately enough, he teaches physical education. His employers have promised to “deal with it rigidly”, though we can expect that he only gets suspended. In these cases, sometimes the response by the education authorities is very lenient.
