Yes there were several on board. A couple that recorded.

Well Moss hasn’t lived around here in probably 20+ years so his opinion doesn’t hold much weight.

Was that qualifier really necessary?

Ok. so then what did the Police Lie about?

:lol: Probably not - he uses it on Dr Philly a lot so I’m just trying to apply the standard fairly :-)

Nothing really. People are just beeching  to beech cause cops bad.

the DA said "no one filmed it for their own gratification instead of stopping the rape” as well as "People get off and on at every single stop," Stollsteimer said. "That doesn't mean when they get on and they see people interacting that they know a rape is occurring.” 

 

so people were coming and going so they could have not noticed a scuffle and rape occurring on the same train, but we know people filmed it because they gave it to police.

This is my interpretation too. It’s really the same set of facts being reported just spun different ways - one way makes it sound worse than another way - and the DA does have motive to be kinder as they need witnesses to not be afraid to come forward. At the end of the day no one intervened to stop the attack and it was filmed - who knows if the motive was for gratification, to post on social media, or for evidence - you would hope the latter.

Yes, there were passengers on board.  And someone did get it on video.

Isn't that a question for the people claiming that the police lied?

To start the police lied about no one calling the cops.

Where did you get information that people called the police? I can’t find it. And every piece I’ve read on this saying that the police lied is very anti-police but doesn’t report anything concrete that contradicts what was reported by them. The only thing I’ve seen regarding informing police is vague - saying that of two riders that recorded the attack one of the riders "tipped police and was filming it to provide evidence” - that doesn’t necessarily mean they used their phone or any emergency phones to call the police while the attack was taking place. They certainly didn’t intervene to stop it.

SEPTA Police Chief Thomas J. Nestel III's best estimate was there were about 10 passengers in the close vicinity of Ngoy and the woman during the rape, which started about 9:52 p.m. and ended when SEPTA police pulled Ngoy off of the woman about 10 p.m., authority spokesman Andrew Busch said Wednesday.

An off-duty SEPTA employee was one of those 10 people. That employee alerted SEPTA police because he believed something wasn't right with the interaction, Busch said. He praised the employee's actions, saying he likely prevented Ngoy from being able to walk off the train and escape arrest.

Three minutes after the employee reported the assault, SEPTA officers stationed at the 69th Street terminal responded to the train car and stopped it.

Was the Septa employee the one who reported it and recorded it?

There was never any dispute that a SEPTA employee was the one who reported it

I thought that’s what I had read, but this is all I see reading through an article about it - that someone tipped off SEPTA (which is obviously not the same as calling the police)

This is the problem - you now have all these opinion pieces floating around that label the cops as big fat liars but I can’t find anything concrete that really disputes what was initially reported by them - perhaps they jumped the gun on their admonishment, maybe they flat out lied - but there isn’t much to go on other than the DA claiming their assessment wasn’t true. Without more to go on it’s very much he said he said - with a DA trying to make sure potential witnesses aren’t afraid to come forward due to fear of reprisal.

Do you have proof to back that up?  Filming it and giving it to police after the fact as evidence isn’t the same as alerting the authorities while it’s happening in order to attempt to stop it.

Did anyone call 911 while it was happening?  Nope.

Did anyone hit the emergency call button that is on EVERY septa car?  Nope.

Not even the off duty Septa employee in the car.

The man accused of raping a woman on a SEPTA subway train in full view of passengers was ordered Monday to stand trial after the woman testified that she had been drinking and "blacked out” on the night of the alleged attack.

Fiston Ngoy, 35, faces charges of rape, sexual assault, and related offenses. Prosecutors say he attacked the woman on Oct. 13 in a crime that drew international attention after law enforcement officials initially said bystanders stood by and did not intervene. Authorities later said that passengers likely did not realize what was happening and that one, on off-duty SEPTA employee, called 911.

During Monday’s hearing in a Lansdowne courtroom, the woman said she was intoxicated and remembered little about the assault.

"He kept pushing himself on me,” she told Magisterial District Judge Harry J. Karapalides. "I was out of it. ... I came to with people standing over me.”
