Should Have Looked Away Philip Cox

"For God's sake, look away! Just look away!"
It began on a Sunday. An ordinary Sunday, and a family trip to the mall.
Will Carter takes his five-year old daughter to the bathroom, and there he is witness to a deadly assault on an innocent stranger.
Over the next few days, Will tries to put the experience behind him, but when he sees one of the attackers outside his home, he becomes more and more involved, and soon passes the point of no return.
Becoming drawn deeper and deeper into something he does not understand, Will feels increasingly out of his depth and is soon asking if the victim was as innocent as he first thought?
