How can you write this entire post and not once include the year in which the attack and murder took place, for context?

  New journalism- omits the facts but shares the feelings.

I JUST happened to look up this case last night (Ok, FINE, I admit it, I watched Girls) and do you know it seems that the Times Report might have been BS this whole time?

In the course of his research, Bill discovers that—despite well-documented individual cases of brazen indifference on the part of some witnesses—others indeed took action of many sorts. At least one witness yelled out the window to frighten off the attacker. Another ran after Kitty and held her, trying vainly to help, as Kitty died in her arms. And, in complete contradiction to published reports, several called the police. So Bill wonders: why did the original, flawed reports remain unchallenged?

  Yes, he very well didn’t do it. There’s a show on Investigation Discovery called “a crime to remember” that dos an episode on her murder. Very informative (if you wanted to know more following last night’s oddly timed ep of Girls).

  This was reported on extensively in a Defamer piece last September

I believe the story is also that the police were called more than once but either never responded or couldn’t find any evidence of an attack and left. Naturally, the chief of the NYPD didn’t want that to become one of the defining facts of the case.

Fwiw, I’m glad Moseley died in jail. Genovese wasn’t his only victim.

  Also, this was before 911 and one of the catalysts to creating the 911 system. Many people didn't know the correct precinct to call and inadvertently called the wrong ones.

Unclear why the (male...) blogger chose to accompany his post with an artsy, soft-focus, black-and-white photo of the rapist, murdering piece of shit instead of his mugshot.

  The picture used gives it a better serial killer angle, which this guy clearly was one..in training at least.

At first glance, that photo makes me think “Eh, seems like a reasonable fellow”. But when I look closer at it, the feeling of someone trying to literally suck my soul out through my eyes is almost palpable.

  If you read up on the Genovese murder ( I went through a phase last fall) he was well on his way to being a serial killer but no one knew what that was back then. Good thing they never let him out.

This is the first I knew the murderer was black. I was 16 when that happened, living in California. All these years I didn’t know that. I assumed he was white —- what did it matter anyway? He was a maniac. It’s interesting that when I took an emergency responder course at my place of employment, the instructor told us “in an emergency, people become paralyzed with fear, horror, apprehension. YOU are the one who has to act. You have to move —- toward the emergency if it’s not a criminal attack —- and toward summoning the police if it is violent.” That stayed with me, and a couple of years later, a man stopped breathing at a large gathering I was attending. Everybody was standing there looking down at him, and calling out for a doctor (there wasn’t one apparently). I recalled that I was the one who had to act, so I knelt down next to him —- he was already cyanotic - turning blue —- and I gave him the three quick puffs that they taught us..He actually started breathing again and came to. Totally confused and panicked, of course. I tried to reassure him and calm him down, and the paramedics finally arrived. Turned out he had had a seizure.

The man was not well, obviously. If I’m not mistaken, I think this act of violence combined with the negligent behavior of the general public sparked the “Neighborhood Watch” programs some burrows are all too fond of.

  I know you meant boroughs, but I do enjoy the idea of a Neighborhood Watch program for rabbits.

This is C Minus Media Communications work. Start a blog for half-ass posts. Gawker is having enough trouble with poor writers.
