ST. PAUL, Minn. A security video from an apartment hallway shows at least 10 witnesses ignored a woman's cries for help for more than an hour as a man beat and sexually assaulted her, prosecutors in Minnesota said.
The surveillance video clearly showed men and women looking out their apartment doors or starting to walk down the hallway before retreating as the woman was assaulted for nearly 90 minutes, police spokesman Tom Walsh said.

Ah, the rapist was a Muslim. The neighbors then may have been his cousins or people terrified of being cut to pieces if they cut involved.
Still, that’s no excuse.
otherwise known as the by-stander effect
Ever notice how these incidents tend to show up in ‘nice’ liberal places like Minnesota and NYC?
Even the most pusilanimous FReeper would at least have called 911.
Absolutely reprehensible. Those people are as complicit in the crime as the perpetrator.
I think the comment might be about that fact that the rapist IS African. He is a Somali Muslim.
Rochester, MN, home of the famed Mayo Clinic, is infested with Muslim Somalis. The crime stats have gone up dramatically after this foolish experiment in diversity. I don’t know who thought this was just what MN needed.
Yes, could you clarify what you meant?

Guess none of them had a gun. /sarc
Hope one of them at least called the police.
In Italy the first five cars passing an automobile accident are obligated to stop and render aid. If you do not you are subject to prosecution (if someone thinks to get your tag number of course).
The most important point is that there are people in the state department who are busily settling big communities of refugees in strange places, and it is disruptive. Voluntary illegals are not the only foreign settlements taking place.
That particular neighborhood isn’t known as a hotbed of conservatism.
This may be what happened. Like I said, I don't think we're getting the full story.
It all comes back to Islam...
hmmm... It doesn't take 90 minutes to get car keys away from a drunk. http://www.answering-islam.org/Index/L/lying.html
The common Moslem belief is that it is allowable to tell a falsehood on four occasions:
1st, to save one's life;
2nd, to effect a peace or reconciliation;
3rd, to persuade a woman;
4th, on the occasion of a journey or expedition.
They ARE guilty in the eyes of the law.
I know of someone who went to jail because he was with a guy who raped a girl and did nothing to stop him.
All those people should be charged.
What goes around, comes around. I wonder how they’d feel if it happens to them and everyone just abandons them.
This makes me so sick.
Weren’t they relocated there after the genocide thing in Somalia? We’re such a caring nation.
Me too. I'd love to have a few minutes alone with each of these morons. ONE of them had to have a phone and could have called 911 even if they didn't want to personally intervene.
