跟进：日本检方起诉驻冲绳美军士兵：涉嫌在那霸酒店勒死39岁女子并抢走背包，驻军曾宵禁整训
东京消息：日本检方起诉一名驻冲绳美国海军陆战队士兵，涉嫌本月初在那霸一家酒店杀害一名女子并抢劫。据多家日本媒体10月25日报道，检方以涉嫌谋杀与抢劫起诉了这名士兵，案件在冲绳再度激起对驻日美军行为的愤怒。本站10月5日曾报道该士兵被捕，本稿为起诉进展的跟进。
据 CNN 援引日本广播协会（NHK）等媒体报道，被告为20岁的海军陆战队一等兵 Devin Jacob Ballard，隶属驻普天间基地的第三海军陆战队远征军；检方指控他在那霸一家酒店用电话线勒死一名女子，并抢走装有钱包的背包。39岁的受害者 Anna Yagi 10月3日上午被发现倒在酒店房间内、当场宣告死亡，冲绳警方此前告诉 CNN，死因为窒息；Ballard 在不到24小时后在市内行走时被捕。检方未披露被告是否认罪，冲绳警方此前告诉 CNN，Ballard 否认指控。第三海军陆战队远征军发言人对 CNN 表示，美军认识到指控的严重性，将继续全力配合日本当局的调查。
Ballard 被捕后，日本首相高市早苗表示日本政府已向美方「强烈抗议」，并要求彻底整顿纪律、采取全面措施防止类似犯罪与事故再次发生；冲绳县知事 Genta Koja 说，这起涉嫌谋杀「让我们不得不承认，美军在维持纪律、教育人员等方面的努力完全无效」。Ballard 被捕后，岛上美军被实施为期一个月的宵禁，并被要求接受关于「标准、纪律以及作为冲绳社区成员的责任」的培训。
冲绳驻有多个美军设施，约3万名美军及家属驻扎当地。类似案件并非首次：去年，一名美国海军陆战队一等兵因在冲绳勒死并性侵一名女子被判处7年监禁；2024年，一名美国空军人员因绑架并强奸一名未成年少女被判处5年监禁；2016年，一名嘉手纳基地文职雇员杀害当地女子后，数万人走上街头要求结束美军在冲绳的存在。

Follow-Up: US Marine Indicted Over Alleged Murder of Woman in Okinawa
Japanese prosecutors have indicted a US Marine on suspicion of murdering and robbing a woman in Okinawa earlier this month, multiple Japanese media outlets reported on October 25, in a case that has prompted renewed outrage over the conduct of US troops in the country. GSM reported the Marine's arrest on October 5; this article follows the indictment.
According to CNN, citing public broadcaster NHK and others, Lance Corporal Devin Jacob Ballard, a 20-year-old Marine assigned to the III Marine Expeditionary Force at Futenma Air Station, is charged with killing a woman by strangling her with a phone cord at a hotel in Naha, Okinawa's capital, and stealing her backpack containing a wallet. Anna Yagi, 39, was found unresponsive in her hotel room and pronounced dead at the scene on the morning of October 3, Okinawa police previously told CNN, adding the cause of death was suffocation. Ballard was arrested less than 24 hours later while walking around the city, police said. Prosecutors have not disclosed whether the suspect has admitted or denied the charges, according to NHK; Okinawa police previously told CNN Ballard denied the charges. A III Marine Expeditionary Force spokesperson told CNN the US military recognizes "the seriousness of the charges and will continue to cooperate fully with Japanese authorities in their ongoing investigation as the legal process moves forward."
Ballard's arrest sparked local protests and condemnation from politicians and leaders in Japan, including Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, who said her government "strongly protested" to the US and called for "thorough discipline among US military personnel, and comprehensive measures to prevent the recurrence of crimes and accidents." Okinawa Governor Genta Koja said the alleged murder "leaves us no choice but to conclude that the US military's efforts in maintaining discipline, educating personnel, and other such measures are completely ineffective." Following Ballard's arrest, US troops on the island were placed under a monthlong curfew and were required to undertake training on "standards, discipline, and our responsibilities as members of the Okinawan community."
Okinawa hosts several US military facilities and is home to about 30,000 US troops and their families. The case is the latest in a string of allegations against US personnel in Okinawa: last year, US Marine Lance Corporal Jamel Clayton, 22, was sentenced to seven years in prison after he was convicted of strangling and sexually assaulting a woman in Okinawa; in 2024, US Air Force member Brennon R. E. Washington, 25, was sentenced to five years for kidnapping and raping an underage girl; and in 2016, tens of thousands of people demonstrated calling for an end to the US military presence on Okinawa following the killing of a local woman by a civilian worker stationed at the US Kadena Air Base.
