"A few years ago, an officer on duty used his gun to kill himself clearly non-designated usage, so thats a crime. He was charged posthumously to publicly show that even the dead cant get away with breaking the firearms laws, and to shame his family. It may seem like overkill but it drives home the point.

I'm sure shaming his family also showed the other officers on the force just how much their lives mean to their superiors.

Another valid point. And even then id just think officers are cruel to shame the family of the colleague that commited suicide. Slow day? Lets charge Bob for commiting suicide....

Well, if there is dishonor on your family, you can be fired from your job, have trouble finding new jobs, be ostracized from society, have your kid's college application turned down, etc.

Japanese society is really big on distancing themselves and ostracizing the undesirables. For example, the atomic bomb survivors (hibakusha) or those whose ancestors had dishonorable jobs (burakumin).

Check it out. It's messed up:

It's the same phenomenon that encourages Japanese women to hide sexual assault rather than report it.
