"If you cover your mother's mouth and nose with a quilt, she will be free..." - The inner world of the "perpetrator" in the "nursing killing" incident. The Mainichi Shimbun Osaka Social Affairs Department interview team conducted in-depth interviews to reveal the tragic reality of home care and explore the possibility of preventing another tragedy.

How far away are we from the sensational "nursing killing" incident?
