PHILADELPHIA (AP) Prosecutors pursuing the case against a man accused of raping a woman on a commuter train last week don’t anticipate charging fellow passengers for not intervening, a spokesperson for the suburban Philadelphia district attorney said.
Charges are unlikely to be filed against fellow passengers who authorities say did not intervene in an alleged rape on a crowded SEPTA train last week, prosecutors say. Investigators have said some passengers held their phones up in the direction of the incident.
“What we want is everyone to be angry and disgusted and to be resolute about making the system safer,” SEPTA Police Chief Thomas J. Nestel III said earlier.
