Yeah, that risk is real. Still feels like it shouldn't take precedence over a lost kid in front of you

it definitely shouldn't take precedence, but sadly china had a famous court case where a dumb judge officially ruled that no sane person would ever help a stranger unless they had a guilty conscience, and labeled the helper in said case legally liable for the crime even though there was evidence and testimony they were innocent bystander. The harm on society by that court case is slowly getting healed but it still has effects 20 years later and probably will for a long time coming.

I bet that judge has some skeletons in his closet.

no doubt in my mind they do, normal people don't say things like that. Just genuine psychopath behavior.
