3:24Now Playing"The widow and daughter of the man pushed to his death on the subway tracks are outraged that a photo was taken just before he was hit by a train.
"They are shocked. They are upset by it," Charen Kim, a lawyer representing victim Ki-Suk Han's grieving wife, Serim, told the Daily News Tuesday night.
"They can't believe that their father's picture is out there, about to get hit by a train," Kim said. "The widow is very upset."
Serim Han's anger over the photo, which was on Tuesday's New York Post front page, was echoed in the media, as "Today" show co-host Al Roker and CNN's Anderson Cooper vented over why onlookers, including the Post freelance photographer, apparently didn't try to save Han.
A police source said Han, 58, was struggling for about 60 seconds to crawl back onto the platform."*
Ki-Suk Han allegedly struggled for 60 second to climb back onto a train platform before he was killed by an oncoming train. Why didn't anyone help him? Why didn't the photographer put down his camera? And furthermore, why did the picture need to be on the cover of the NY Post? Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss this inhumane, sleazy photo-op and whether or not anyone will learn from it.
