Kitty Genovese: A True Account of a Public Murder and Its Private Consequences by Catherine Pelonero

3.0

---

Great first half of a book and then the last half was just boring newspaper crap. This guy wrote this thing in this newspaper and this other guy wrote this other thing in this other newspaper. Very little of the "Consequences" part of the title, which I had taken to mean the start of the 911 system and the new sociology terms and ideas about the bystander effect and deflection of responsibility.
