1998 Eskridge car crash
In 1998, Randall Eskridge, a Flight Equipment Technician in the Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron 152 based out of Okinawa, caused a fatal hit-and-run crash. On October 7, 1998, while driving drunk, his car struck Yuki Uema, an 18-year-old Japanese high school student, who was riding her motorcycle home. After hitting her, Eskridge did not stop to help her. Uema was in a coma for a week and died from complications of her injuries. Uema's death followed the infamous 1995 Okinawan rape incident, where on September 4, 1995, three U.S. servicemen rented a van and kidnapped and raped a 12-year-old 6th-grade Japanese girl. The Eskridge car crash caused an uproar in Okinawa due to the raw emotion in the Okinawan population after the rape incident, the fact the Marines refused to hand over Eskridge, and continued opposition to the American presence in Japan.
==Crash==

Yuki Uema, 18, was riding her motorcycle home at 4:30 on October 7, 1998, when she was knocked down by a hit-and-run driver outside Camp Zukeran, a U.S. military base north of Naha, Okinawa's capital. Eskridge was caught after an alert guard at Camp Zukeran's gate noticed heavy damage to the grille of his vehicle.
Initially the Americans refused to hand over Eskridge. The SOFA agreement between Japan and America requires the accused to be handed over to local authorities only for a ''heinous'' crime. After much outrage and protest, he was finally handed over to the local police a week after the incident.
The incident brought to light one of many grievances felt by the Okinawan people towards the US military presence. After the Padilla case, in particular, it was revealed that there were over a thousand car crashes a year involving US military personnel in Okinawa. Chalmers Johnson states that it wasn't until 1997 that American military-owned vehicles were required to have license plates, often making it impossible for hit-and-run victims to identify the vehicle that hit them.〔
