A 20-year-old US Navy Marine, Devin Jacob Ballard, was arrested by Japanese police on Sunday in connection with the robbery and murder of a 39-year-old Japanese woman, Anna Yagi, at a hotel in Naha, Okinawa.1 Yagi was found dead in her hotel room on the morning of October 3, with police concluding she had been strangled with a rope.1 Security footage showed a man matching the suspect's description entering the hotel with the victim and leaving alone while carrying her belongings.1
Ballard is assigned to the Third Marine Expeditionary Force and stationed at Marine Corps Air Station Futenma in Ginowan.1 The arrest has sparked renewed outrage among Okinawa residents over decades of criminal incidents involving US military personnel.1 Approximately 100 protesters gathered in both Naha and Tokyo to demonstrate against the killing.1 Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takada filed a formal protest with Washington, though activists argue such measures are insufficient.1 Since 1972, Okinawa has recorded 6,409 criminal cases involving US military personnel, with the United States maintaining approximately 55,000 military personnel in Japan, 70 percent of them stationed in Okinawa.1
