Would you cover up a family member who's committed a crime? Why?

[Elena_Stewart]

[WhiteSteve]

You won’t find me talking to police as a general rule🤐🤐🤐

[Elena_Stewart]

Ok😁

[NathanDavis]

nope...

[JustinTheGreat]

Depends on who it is and what crime they did

[HawkPerception]

Depends on what it is. If they killed someone for killing a loved one, yes. I would do everything in my power to help cover it up.

If they stole something or murdered someone in cold blood, then I would not try to protect them, but I would feel bad trying to prove they're guilty as well. I'd just stay away from the case.

[Effably]

The answer is of course that it depends.
I'd help my closest family hide a murder in a heartbeat if I felt it was justified.

Doesn't mean I'd ever accept it if they broke my own absolute moral bottomline.

[strateguy632]

omg murder is not moral bottomline?

[strateguy632]

if not worst? not broke your own absolute moral bottomline?

[Effably]

If I felt it was justified is a bit of a key there. Murdering someone who say, raped a family member is absolutely not below my bottomline.

[DarkLegacy]

Been in that situation and nearly got arrested whilst serving jury service and working as a carer for old people, and it was a serious crime. He confessed in the end however

[Elena_Stewart]

Wow😳

[exitseven]

It depends on the crime. If it is tax evasion or other white collar crimes I would cover it up. also if they had crimes against the Biden administration.

[PeachyPie93]

If it was for murder, no thank you I'd rat you out straight away.
But drugs or fighting maybe, because jail sucks especially if it was my kid since I wouldn't want them to ruin their future.

[IslaTheWitch]

it depends on myriad of factors...

in general I believe in taking responsibility for our actions... but life doesn't want to be black or white... so I would first want to learn what and why really happened...

[AviatorTom]

@exitseven says it well... It depends. If it's a crime that doesn't hurt anyone, I might look the other way... though my initial reaction would be to make sure they take responsibility for whatever they have done.

[Kaneki05]

I don't have a real family member I like enough for that.
But I would easily if I had one I liked.

[RebelinSteel]

Greatly depends on the crime, sister or brother yes, parents… maybe.

[livin_hi_808]

If I could without implementing myself and gettin caught, the yes. Absolutely

[NewgodOmega]

Depends on the crime if he managed to steal 100 million I will cover up a 100 million is worst the risk

[ab2shifty]

where I grew up, basically everyone does that 🤣

[Elena_Stewart]

[Elena_Stewart]

[Elena_Stewart]

👍🏻👍🏻

[Anonymous]

sometimes depends which crime n if they nice to me. but i told the cops my parents hit me, no cover for that!

[Yannae]

Depending on the crime I'll cover them in a bunker or with jail bars.

[KrakenAttackin]

Depends on the family member and the crime.

[Surely]

For me. It would depend on the severity of the crime and the penalties for being an accomplice.

[IndianDave]

I agree I don't talk to cops or feds. Don't trust any of them.

[normalice]

Not if I agreed it should be a crime.

[sheenagwapa]

no if s/he killed someone

[jahaims]

Depends on the context

[Simslover92]

No I wouldn't.

[ChicoFromThe305]

Yea I would
