I could be wrong, but I'm not sure this woman would have sought help if the victim was black?

My guess is that she would have done the same thing regardless of the race of the victim because her sole concern was herself.

The media, however, is guilty of a double standard in reporting this case, because you can be sure that if the races of the victim and perpetrator were reversed, that the media would literally be screaming bloody murder.

Also had she been white, do you think the media would be saying how she was a "girl scout and a sunday school standout" ala Soledad O'Brien at NBC?
