The fact that the person who witnesses the violent attack and rape of a little girl did not immediately call 911 the moment he or she saw the man hit the girl makes that witness 100% as responsible for the child's death, in my opinion. There is no excuse for refusing to do everything possible to stop an attack on a child. Calling 911 in a timely manner is the very least a human being could do.
Personally, I would have grabbed the nearest weapon even if it was nothing but a rock or a stick and ran at the pervert screaming like I was possessed by the devil. Let that disgusting excuse for a human being try to fight me of with his pants around his ankles. This 5' 2" gramma would rather die protecting a child from a pervert than cower around worrying about possible repercussions of reporting it while witnessing a child being raped and disposed the of like garbage. MOO
The witness could possibly have been a woman but my personal best guess would be that the cowardly witness is a man. The longer I live, the more I see how far our society has fallen from the days when decent men were expected to protect women and children.
It's disgusting and vile the number of people who fail to act when someone is in danger. This case where dozens of people walked by w/o doing a thing when a man was stabbed after saving a woman from an attacker. http://nypost.com/2010/04/24/stabbed-hero-dies-as-more-than-20-people-stroll-past-him/

It's just sad that people aren't inclined to help, even call for help if they aren't willing to step in and assist.
