57: Kitty Genovese and "The Bystander Effect"

Kitty Genovese's murder was shocking and senseless as all murders are. The interesting thing about this case is what has come to be known as "The Bystander Effect". Newspapers exaggerated the details as they do, and subsequent reporting led to a full study in the human response. The bystander effect was a term coined after this tragic murder. The sad reality of people not wanting to get involved and in this case a life may have been saved. But "someone else will do something" and unfortunately by the time anything was done it was too late for Kitty Genovese.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kepwlL44Neohttps://www.coursehero.com/file/priukpf/He-had-killed-them-all-he-said-In-the-murder-of-Annie-Mae-Johnson-Moseley/https://www.history.com/topics/crime/kitty-genovesehttps://www.apa.org/gradpsych/2012/09/tall-taleshttps://www.simplypsychology.org/kitty-genovese.html
