Lakesha, Leslie, Rojan (Roy), Luchiea, Nicole, Douglas, Ebony and Eric decided to go on a class picnic along the banks of the Potomac River. You are among the others standing by the edge of the Potomac River. You and your classmates have just finished a delicious picnic and are admiring the view across the river. Suddenly, you see a small sailboat overturn. The passengers cling desperately to the edge of the overturned boat, yelling for HELP!!! You and your classmates look on in horror, but no one swims out to help the people. Both passengers on the sailboat drown. If the families of the deceased passengers sue you when they find out that you didn't attempt to rescue the passengers, the most likely outcome of this case would be: (A) You would be held not liable for the passengers' deaths based on bystander cases. (B) You would be held not liable or responsible for the passengers' death based on the Informational Control Rule. (C) You would be held not responsible for the passengers' deaths based on the hearsay rule. (D) You would be held responsible for the deaths based on the Tarasoff case.

Answer: (A) You would be held not liable for the passengers' deaths based on bystander cases.

Explanation:

Based on the information given, if the families of the deceased passengers sue the bystanders when they find out that they did not attempt to rescue the passengers, the most likely outcome of this case would be that the bystanders will not be held liable for the passengers' deaths.

According to the bystander cases, it simply states that an individual who is a bystander has no legal duty to rescue someone else who's at distress. Therefore, in this case, the bystanders won't be held responsible for their death.
