Salvador Rodriquez says he’d rather let someone be raped then be a snitch

According to ABC, a witness named Salvador Rodriquez, 21, said:
People say, ‘Why didn’t I call the cops,’ but at the same time, I live in Richmond, a neighborhood like this, snitching is something you don’t do, you know…
Of course it’s not just him apparently. Another unidentified 16 year old witness said:
I feel like I could have done something but I don’t feel like I have any responsibility for anything that happened.
So it seems that’s what wrong with people who grow up in this “Urban Culture”. If it isn’t happening to them or someone they know it’s not their problem. Losing “street cred” and being called a snitch is what worries them more than what happened to this 15 year old girl.
Too bad there’s no crime that they can be charged with. Of course they might just take that as a badge of honor.
