The 32-year-old civilian working at the base on the island of Okinawa admitted to abandoning the corpse but did not make any comments about whether he had killed the woman, an Okinawa police spokesman said.
Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida summoned Caroline Kennedy, U.S. ambassador to Japan Cheap Rob Kelley Jersey , to lodge a protest.

Japan's ambassador to the United States, Kenichiro Sasae, said he hoped the latest incidents would not affect the mood toward Obama's visit to Hiroshima, as the Japan-U.S. alliance had made "tremendous progress" under the current U.S. president.
"The Okinawa issue is the Okinawa issue Cheap Terrelle Pryor Jersey ," he told reporters. "This is a tragic event, but a tragic event should not overshadow the fundamental objective of the alliance – that's what I hope," he told reporters in Washington.
