Looks like the cops are investigating to see if they can identify people on the edges who were pushing and shoving. Guess if this actually happened and they are found they'd be on hook for manslaughter charges or something equivalent?

Very good interview by someone who was there

Seems like a bit of a deflection by the authorities because in crowd crushes, the back of the surge does not know what's happening in the front of the surge and can't really be held responsible. However, if they're right about the pushers doing hand signs and group chants and poo poo to coordinate a push, goddamn that is pretty egregious behavior.

Saw some truly disturbing videos of the Itaewon crush on reddit. Really regret seeing that before I went to bed. Like Junji Ito level poo poo. 😩

Cannot emphasize enough, do not watch the videos
