Horie: Before and After Prison

April 28th, 2006 by Adamu		 Adamu

Horie got 95 days in jail before he was even considered for release. I’m not even going to risk jaywalking in Japan from now on (though I’ll probably still scam the train from time to time):

Before:

After:

The news media surrounded Horie’s van with motorcycles on his way back to his home in Roppongi Hills. Scavengers, man.

      I have to concur with Curzon: he looks pretty good for having been in jail for more than three months. From the horror stories I’ve heard about Japanese jails, I would have expected him to come out looking positively skeletal!
