Bad Samaritan

[Victor Steinbok]

I suppose, it's been around for a while, but we have a new case of "Bad
Samaritan" (with a bonus "Evil Samaritan" further down in the post).

Searching for versions of this story, I came across a couple of other
titles that include "Bad Samaritan". Yahoo and ABC News also had the
"No-good Samaritan" version.
