The fact that the particular "criminal justice system" did not even allow him to contact the media sold me. He can't get a fair trial in Japan because their system is broken.

It's the same in Sweden. You can't have contact with media, family, other inmates, basically anyone except your attorney.

This does not apply automatically, but it is true that such restrictions are possible, and that there has been criticism that they are applied in too many cases and for too long times.
