This is only tangentially related, but there was a Law & Order: Criminal Intent episode where a home heatlhcare aid who let his elderly, paranoid charge die in a fire basically admits that although he didn’t kill the guy, he also did nothing to help. He’s then arrested because, as a medical professional, he has a “higher duty of care,” with the (possibly/probably fictional) precedent of a lifeguard who watched someone drown and did nothing to try to help.
TL;DR: Her punishment for assault, as a medical “professional,” should be as high if not higher than the knuckleheads wearing horned helmets. And we should all get to watch Vincent D’Onofrio yell at her.
