How could New Yorkers walk by a dying man and not offer to help? This is what I was asked when I was interviewed on Fox News about the April 18, 2010 killing of Mr. Tale -Yax. A surveillance camera's video showed him being stabbed. He lay bleeding on the sidewalk as many individuals passed by and did not stop to help him.

There were other explanations for the behavior of these bystanders.
