Hopefully the "friends" that didn't intervene get serious punishment as well.

He did an awesome and wonderful thing. I hope he gets the credit and recognition he deserves, and I hope that if any one of us would be in the same situation, we would do the same thing. Nice job, Cristian! =D^

+1 as they should

They were, at the very least, accomplices to rape

For that matter, the LB could've potentially been thrown in the the "accomplice" category as a bystander if he did or said nothing about it, based on what he saw. Good to hear he did the right thing.

"He slipped and busted his face on a wall".

That's one of the best things I've read in weeks! I spilled my coffee I was laughing so hard.

Good for this dude. I wish we heard about positive stuff more because it happens way more than the negative.

I completely agree that it is admirable that this guy did the right thing by interrupting a (horrible) crime that was being committed.

Having said that - failing to stop a crime that is in progress does not make someone an "accomplice." Not legally, at least...from a moral perspective, it might make one a horrible human being. But if a person's only connection to the crime is that they watched and didn't intervene, I don't think that makes them an accomplice...

Milton Friedman addresses the "Freedom not to Act" in his response to a lawyer's excellent question. The scenario is not quite the same, but it's close enough for the point to be pertinent.
