It's really appalling that people don't look out for eachother anymore, and while I can kind of understand this happening in a psych ward, I still think it's an inate human instinct to help people.
Maybe it's something that has been abandoned as humans have become more "civilized"...

You're referring to Kitty Genovese:

Boondock Saints should be familiar with the name.
I won't watch the clip; the descriptions were disturbing enough. Once you watch it, you can't unwatch it. There are occasions where we can't explain human behavior as much as we would like to; I think this is one of those times.
