80. Hot-dog Hubbub: Should it be a crime to do nothing?
A police officer watches a man get beaten to death but does nothing to help. When should it be a crime to do nothing?
It鈥檚 the early hours of the morning in Merseyside. Peter Stubbs is thrown out of Cindy鈥檚 Nightclub, then brutally beaten in the street. Constable Dytham is standing nearby and watches it happen. The minutes tick on and the violence subsides, but it鈥檚 clear that Peter is dead.
On this episode of Bad People, hosts Julia Shaw and Sofie Hagen explore whether it should be a crime to do nothing. They ask why we don't step in when we know we should, and discover what happens when inaction leads to conviction.
