(in the US) There is no law that specifically says that you have to actively help (i.e.; intervene in the assault) but many (all?) states have legislation that makes it an offense not to report a crime in progress to the authorities.

Why do police release 911 calls?

It depends on the circumstances. Sometimes the calls are released in order that the public might help identify someone.

Publishing the call might mean someone recognises the voice.Added: Because they are "public record," and the media usually request them under the provisions of the FOIA.
