I linked NHK, basically the Japanese news source that also publishes in English. However, if you want a lot more context from the case, you can read the Crunchyroll article here that has a lot of background for the case.

Oh yeah, japan has the death penalty...

While I don't support the death penalty as a judicial measure, as it's a punishment which cannot be taken back if it ever lands on the wrong person (as it in history has done many times).

That atrocity is definitely a crime where it would be warranted, were an infallible justice system possible.

It's Disneyland with a Death Penalty

That would be Singapore, scratch the fancy surface and there's not much underneath. Japan is more nuanced and vast, runs much deeper in so many ways.
