The story
The Hyogo Prefectural Police announced that it disciplined two officers, a man and a woman, with pay cuts for dereliction of duty after they engaged in sexual acts inside the police station and in a patrol car while on duty. According to ABC News, the male senior patrolman is married, and the matter came to light after his wife discovered his relationship with the female officer, prompting him to report it to his superiors himself. Both are said to have admitted the facts and expressed remorse. On 5ch’s “Breaking News Plus” board, reactions ranged from sarcasm about Hyogo police’s repeated scandals, to debate over whether the punishment fit the offense, to jokes tying the incident to Japan’s declining birthrate.

What people said
Ahhh, coming~~~ (mocking moan, riffing on the sexual nature of the case)
Isn't it "dereliction of duty" or something like that?
Well, it's Kanagawa police, so…
What's going on over there?
→ then they go to an actual love hotel while on duty
These guys make horny dogs look tame lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Getting caught by your boss beats having to face your wife any day.
Maybe his wife's an ex-cop too and just outranks him in martial arts.
> The two have reportedly admitted to the facts and expressed remorse.
That got me for some reason, lol.
Was everyone around them just pretending not to notice?
They should just fire them.
Why do we keep paying taxes to civil servants who aren't doing their jobs?
People should protest hard and directly, like they're verbally tearing them apart.
Every citizen has that right — these two are way too full of themselves.
In that case, was it a whistleblower or a hidden-camera situation?
I bet the people around them already knew.
You can just tell from the vibe, right?
Cut them some slack.
Go make babies with your own wife instead.
Then just look the other way a little, don't be so uptight about it.
Actually read post 1.
The guy is married.
Yeah, it's cushy, anyone can become one these days, and the pay's good too.
But even giving them every benefit of the doubt, getting paid to have sex on the job is unforgivable 👹
Total winners.
These days a household income of ¥10 million
is only worth what ¥5 million used to be back in the day (lol)
Fixing the birthrate means couples having two or more kids each — knocking up some unmarried woman once isn't going to turn that around.
Background and key points of this story
Disciplinary action against police officers is a matter of internal conduct rules, separate from criminal punishment — and in this case too, the grounds for discipline weren’t the sexual acts themselves but the fact that the officers neglected their duties while on shift (a violation of their obligation to devote themselves to their work). Because one of the two was married, the case drew attention as an “affair,” but as far as reported, the affair itself wasn’t the reason for the punishment. On the thread, the sense that Hyogo police scandals keep making headlines drew a pile of sarcasm, while opinions split between a more forgiving “if they were both single it’d be one thing” camp and an “it’s out of the question since they were on duty” camp. The fact that the case came to light not through an internal report but because a spouse noticed also left posters wondering how many similar cases never make it into the open.
