  • Indiana Law Review
    . Indiana Law Review Volume 33 2000 Number 2 NOTES Justifications for State Bystander Intervention Statutes: Why Crime Witnesses Should Be Required to Call for Help Jennifer Bagby* Introduction In the series finale ofthe television show Seinfeld, Jerry, Elaine, George, and Kramer served time in prison for violating Massachusetts' new Duty to Assist Statute. The fictional foursome had not only stood by passively and watched the mugging of a stranger, but also found the crime amusing. Seinfeld saw humor in a tragic situation. The need for a statute creating a duty to report a crime or assist a crime victim enters into the debate through highly publicized tales of failure to render assistance. The first high profile incident of a failure to intervene occurred in 1964. On March 13, 1964, twenty-eight-year-old Catherine "Kitty" Genovese was stabbed to death outside of her Queens, New York apartment at three in the morning.' Thirty-eight of Ms. Genovese's neighbors witnessed the attack, but none called the police or intervened to stop the criminal. Ms. Genovese's assailant left her at one point when a neighbor yelled out of his window, but he later returned to continue his attack. Only one neighbor stepped forward to call the police, though even he waited to seek advice from a friend. By the time the police arrived at the scene, it was too late. Ms. Genovese had died.^ In 1983, six patrons of a New Bedford, Massachusetts tavern raped a twenty- two-year-old woman while the other customers cheered. No one intervened or called the police.

  • Chapter 4: Maintaining Aircraft Control: Upset Prevention and Recovery
    Chapter 4 Maintaining Aircraft Control: Upset Prevention and Recovery Training Introduction A pilot’s fundamental responsibility is to prevent a loss of control (LOC). Loss of control in-flight (LOC-I) is the leading cause of fatal general aviation accidents in the U.S. and commercial aviation worldwide. LOC-I is defined as a significant deviation of an aircraft from the intended flightpath and it often results from an airplane upset. Maneuvering is the most common phase of flight for general aviation LOC-I accidents to occur; however, LOC-I accidents occur in all phases of flight. To prevent LOC-I accidents, it is important for pilots to recognize and maintain a heightened awareness of situations that increase the risk of loss of control. Those situations include: uncoordinated flight, equipment malfunctions, pilot complacency, distraction, turbulence, and poor risk management – like attempting to fly in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) when the pilot is not qualified or proficient. Sadly, there are also LOC-I accidents resulting from intentional disregard or recklessness. 4-1 To maintain aircraft control when faced with these or other contributing factors, the pilot must be aware of situations where LOC-I can occur, recognize when an airplane is approaching a stall, has stalled, or is in an upset condition, and understand and execute the correct procedures to recover the aircraft. D.C. ELEC. R 6 0 ° Defining an Airplane Upset 2 MIN. NO PITCH INFORMATION The term “upset” was formally introduced by an industry L work group in 2004 in the “Pilot Guide to Airplane Upset i Recovery,” which is one part of the “Airplane Upset Recovery Training Aid.” The working group was primarily focused on large transport airplanes and sought to come up with one term to describe an “unusual attitude” or “loss of control,” for example, and to generally describe specific parameters as part of its definition.
