The bystander effect - Catherine Susan Genovese

In 1964 Catherine Genovese was attacked 100 yards from her home by a knife wielding man, he stabbed her to death and then ejaculated on her body.

Reports would say that 38 people witnessed the attack, one man even shouted at Winston Moseley to 'leave that girl alone'. Yet no-one called the police or went to help her.


The shock from the crime would cause changes to be made to the NYPD's 911 service as well as have psychologists studying what is now known as the 'Bystander Effect'.
