A U.S. airman stationed in Japan was sentenced to five years in prison Friday after being convicted of kidnapping and sexually assaulting a minor. U.S. service members in Japan, which hosts more than 50,000 American troops, have been involved in a series of sexual assault and other criminal cases dating back decades. The 18th Wing, the host unit at Kadena Air Base, said it worked closely with local authorities throughout the case. “Sexual assault is reprehensible, and we share the local community’s outrage over this case,” it said in a statement Friday. “All U.S. service members are expected to always uphold the highest standards of conduct.”Brig.

☆ Brennon R. E. Washington: US serviceman sentenced to 5 years for kidnapping and raping Japanese schoolgirl, officials say

CNN —A US serviceman was sentenced to five years in prison for kidnapping and raping an underage girl last year, an official from Naha District Court on the southern Japanese island of Okinawa told CNN. “The girl’s testimony that she told her age by gestures and other means is sufficiently credible from the security camera footage,” the judge said. The US military handed the 25-year-old serviceman over to Japanese authorities on the same day. It could exacerbate tensions with residents who have long opposed the presence of American troops and weaponry on the island. In another crime involving US personnel in Japan, a US Navy officer killed two Japanese nationals while driving down Mount Fuji in 2021.
