Not the first time we have heard in recent months and years that a crime was witnessed by multitudes and no one lifted a finger to help.
There have even been cases where people have even recorded the crime in progress for youtube uploads later but still never came forward to help police catch the guilty.
Example was the kid who got beaten with a rail tie last month in Chicago.
Question: Should it be allowable to prosecute someone who witnesses a crime and not act to help when they have the ability to do so in cases such as this?
Should witnesses be held to the same culpability as those who are actually committing the crime?
