It’s been nearly three days since we last reported on the arrest of a sexual deviant inventing a new way to get himself arrested by throwing pee at young women. So we’re clearly long overdue for another guy pushing the envelope of creepy crime.
On 24 August, Kanagawa Prefectural Police picked up Joji Kondo for stealing three seats from women’s electric bicycles in a housing complex at around 4:00 in the morning. After searching Kondo’s home they uncovered a further 200 seats.
According to police he admitted to the crimes saying “I wanted to smell the lingering scent of a woman.” MSN News Japan reported the 35-year-old as saying “I like the texture of the leather and the smell it has, I would lick it and sniff it.”
The three seats were valued at 18,000 yen (US$180) and the other 200 were estimated to cost a further 1,200,000 yen (US$12,000) in total. According to the investigation, Kondo targeted bicycles which were also fitted with child seats so he knew it had a woman rider.
That being said, some men surely ride bikes with child seats attached, like when the family has multiple children? Thinking one in two-hundred men might do that doesn’t seem far-fetched either.
Therefore no matter what punishment Kondo is facing, we can rest assured that chances are he probably licked and sniffed himself some essence of male perineum at some point.
