Bystander Mentality
The Richmond community is reeling from the gang rape of a 15 year old girl. Many bystanders watched, and didn't intervene in the brutal crime. We talk about what the community and police are doing in response, and we discuss bystander mentality. What makes people stand idly by when atrocities are committed?
Host: Michael Krasny
