The former nursing care employee under arrest for allegedly throwing three elderly patients to their deaths at a facility in Kawasaki is opening up to investigators on why he committed the acts, police sources said.
"I resented the words and behavior" of the home's elderly residents, Hayato Imai, 23, who was dismissed last May by the facility's operator, S Amiyu Kawasaki Saiwai-cho, reportedly told investigators.
He also reportedly told them that "a lot happened" at his workplace and that he felt "sorry" for his actions.
