Japanese police mistake life-sized sex doll for murder victim

Fifteen police officers were dispatched to the scene after receiving a phone call about a "corpse" in an Izu City (Japan) forest.

There they found a "body" wrapped in plastic tightly bound around the neck, midriff and ankles, with hair protruding from one end. Police investigators felt it from outside but never actually looked inside since they were following procedures by leaving the concealed "body" untouched for the police pathologists.

Extra officers were sent out to interview potential witnesses while media, which had been covering quake related drills on the 85th anniversary of the Great Kanto Earthquake, began focusing on this development as a major crime story. Due to press deadlines, the gruesome report ended up making the evening edition of the local newspaper.

The "victim" in the meantime was in custody of police pathologists by mid-afternoon for further examination. Upon opening the wrapping and expecting to find a human corpse, they discovered the body was actually a "sophisticated" life-sized sex doll wearing a blouse and skirt.

Red-faced police officials apologized for the trouble they caused and closed the book on the "case". Initially, they thought they might have been the victim of a prank but upon further investigation of the doll, found that it had been "used" heavily. They determined the doll's owner did not want to dispose of it with the rest of the garbage and instead dumped it in the forest. To the amusement of the gathered reporters, the police spokesperson had a stern message for the doll's owner by stating that it was an irresponsible thing to do.
