How could they have saved him? They were a couple of film makers trying to hide their identity, already in slaver territory, vastly outnumbered. I'm guessing that if they'd attempted to save him at that point, they almost certainly wouldn't have succeeded, they would likely have been killed, this documentary would never have been made, and the discovery of the footage already taken would have led to the implementation of more precautions among the slavers to prevent any future documentaries.

why the heck did they not save the boy in the blue shirt and left him to die?

I can't believe the owner of Saf Cocoa just totally denied everything. He deserves to rot in a jail cell since it's so illegal in the Ivory Coast.
