In Japanese, whoever is the person, "the one who commited the criminal"
is $BHH?M!#(BPolice talks like $BHH?M$OF`NI8)$NFn@>It$+$i7HBSEEOC$r$+$1$F$-$?!#(B

Once someone is suspected to be $BHH?M(B, then he is $BMF5?<T(B, untill finally
judged as guilty in the court. When judged guilty, what does he become?
$B:a?M!"<|?M!"A02JHH!"(Betc., depends on the judgement...
Whoever it is, the person who commited it is still $BHH?M(B, even if someone
else is sitting in the jail for his crime. Maybe after 30 years, he may be
found as $B!VHH?M$G$O$J$+$C$?!W(B. it means, the court can't change the fact
who was $BHH?M(B.
