Kobayashi has told investigators that he lured Ariyama into a car Nov. 17 by offering to give her a lift home, according to the sources. The car had been borrowed from a friend.
"I was targeting any girl who was walking alone," Kobayashi reportedly told police. He said he had never seen or met the girl or her family.
He took her to his apartment and drowned her in his bathtub. He took photos of her and sent one of them to the victim's mother from the girl's cell phone, the sources said.
On Dec. 14, he used Ariyama's cell phone again to send several photos of the girl to her mother, including the one he already sent Nov. 17. At that time, he also sent a text message to the woman, threatening to kidnap the girl's younger sister next.
Kobayashi has reportedly told police he "wanted (the mother) to know what had happened."
He has a criminal record of molesting small girls and reportedly spent time in prison years ago for attempting to strangle a girl in Osaka.
Following Thursday's arrest, police found about 100 items related to small girls, including clothing, underwear and swimsuits, in his apartment, according to the sources.

It pains my heart when I hear more stories of sicko's like this. Japan is one of the only "developed" countries that does not keep records of paedophiles, they do not provide "counselling" while they are in prison, and now this man -- with several records of child molestation dating back to when he was a teenager -- has taken a life. Police are investigating other possible cases of "missing" children who may have been a victom of this man.
I mentioned previously in a post called Sanity?! What sanity? Norm? What is the norm?! about how Japan is the global "hub" of child pornography, and we didn't even pass a law banning child pornography until 1999.
In Japanese we do not have a word for "sexual assult" against children. Itazura 悪戯 【いたずら】 (adj-na,n,vs) tease; prank; trick; practical joke; mischief.
NO!
Harming innocent, little children; sexual assult is not a prank! It's no fucking joke! We need stricter laws against people who commit henous crimes like this, we need a process to rehabilitate these men who have very twisted sexualities, we need to change shit around here!
We need changes...
