If you have ever taken a psychology class or really, if you are a fan of true crime, at some point in your life you have probably come across The Bystander Effect.  The Bystander Effect is a social psychological theory that states that individuals are less likely to offer help to a victim of a crime when there are other people present.  They believe instead that someone else must have called authorities or someone else will help.  This theory is actually largely based on the murder of Kitty Genovese and we are going to change a lot of what you may know or may have been taught about that case here today.  Lost in all of the controversy that has surrounded that over the years, is a story of a woman that was brutally murdered, regardless of the circumstances that surrounded that murder.
