In my opinion, there should be penalties for sharing such videos as this is a violation of human rights of victims (dead or alive). Under Clause 155 under Australian law it is a crime for failing to help a person in danger see below:

"Clause 155 of the NT Criminal Code Act now imposes a general duty to rescue, stating that any person who is able to provide rescue, resuscitation, medical treatment, first aid or succour of any kind to a person who is urgently in need of it and whose life may be endangered but “callously fails to act” is committing an offence. The maximum penalty is seven years imprisonment – which has been described by one judge as the heaviest punishment for an equivalent offence in the world."
Maybe this is something the Bahamas should consider as a means to put a stop to this terrible behavior.

It is unacceptable that public servants can simply 'shut-down' operations to force the hand of the government, while workers in the private sector endure much hardship & unfair treatment with absolutely no recourse. Smh
