熱傷事故死、職員1人在宅起訴　2人は嫌疑不十分で不起訴　仙台地検 [宮城県]：朝日新聞

This page reports on a fatal scalding accident at a disability support facility in Ishinomaki, Miyagi Prefecture in 2022. A female facility worker (29) was indicted for occupational negligence resulting in death after a resident suffered severe burns covering 60% of her body from approximately 50-degree hot water. Two other staff members—a 30-something supervisor and a 40-something former caregiver—were not prosecuted due to insufficient evidence. The victim's family expressed doubts about why only one person was charged despite the bathing assistance being a two-person operation.
