“@ DAVID HUGHIE GREEN – - – OF COURSE WHAT YOU ARE DESCRIBING IS THE EXTREME SIDE OF CRIMINAL ACTIVITY, AND WOULD DEFFINITELY BE DEALT WITH, BY FAMILY FIRST, ”

As they taught us in calculus (and in the Eagles song), “take it to the limit.” If you make a claim you would always do something or never do something, it is reasonable to consider the most extreme case and see if that statement makes sense.

I doubt the family knew what he had against him just as I suspect they would not have liked to have had all the weaponry around in easy reach of curious children. But, that’s not a limiting consideration to which to apply the statement, “I would NEVER….”

ALSO, IF ANYONE HAS EVER BEEN A WITNESS TO A CRIME BEFORE AND HAD TO TESTIFY……. YOU WOULD ALMOST FEEL LIKE YOU WERE THE GUILTY ONE. I ONCE WITNESSED A DUI ACCIDENT, AND THOUGHT BY GIVING A STATEMENT ON WHAT I SAW, I WAS DOING THE RIGHT THING. BUT, AFTER THE WAY I WAS INTEROGATED BY BOTH SIDES OF LEGAL TEAMS, AND BY BOTH PARTIES INSURANCE, COMPANIES…. ITS NO WONDER MORE PEOPLE CHOOSE TO TURN THE OTHER WAY. IT IS NOT WORTH THE STRESS. I PERSONALLY WOULD BE NOT WITNESS TO ANYTHING AGAIN, NO MATTER WHAT. ITS SAD, BUT ITS THE TRUTH.

@ DAVID HUGHIE GREEN

OF COURSE WHAT YOU ARE DESCRIBING IS THE EXTREME SIDE OF CRIMINAL ACTIVITY, AND WOULD DEFFINITELY BE DEALT WITH, BY FAMILY FIRST, THEN THE LAW COULD HAVE THEM. MOST FAMILIES HOWEVER, DONT REALLY KNOW WHATS GOING ON. THEY MAY SUSPECT, BUT THAT IS NOT ENOUGH REASON TO DRAG THE LAW INTO IT. ONCE THE LAW IS INVOLVED, A PESON REPUTATION IS TAINTED, WHETHER GUILTY OF SAID CRIMES OR NOT. PLUS, IF A FAMILY MEMBER MAKES A FALSE ACCUSATION, NOW THEY HAVE FAMILY FEUDING, ETC.. FOR FAMILY TO TURN ON FAMILY IS NOT AN EASY DECISION TO MAKE. ITS ALWAYS EASIER TO LET THE LAW TAKES ITS COURSE.

” I WOULDNT TURN IN FAMILY FOR NOBODY. BLOOD IS THICKER THAN WATER.”

Just to be sure, not that it applies here, even if you knew a family member was going out and torturing and killing small children every evening, you wouldn’t turn him in? You would let him continue?

@AAM

You would be what I call an “enabler”. If a family member is a fugitive from the law, and they are hidden in your house with firearms, drugs, etc. and you ALLOW this and do not turn them in, you are aiding and abetting.

WHY would any family member assist another family member in self-destructive behavior, unless they were cut from the same bolt of cloth?

I know about family – I am very close with all of mine – close and extended. None of us would allow criminal activity by anyone, family included to take place in our homes.

re: holding the family responsible…sometimes the family maybe more afraid of the criminal than you might think. And once they let a family member stay with them, then in the eyes of the law, its almost impossible to get rid of said criminal family member. sometimes the family is just “stuck”. Unfortunately, the law doesnt work like it does on TV, or for an innoncent and abused family member. I am not saying that is what was going on with this family, I am just saying this is why you cant just start arresting all family members. If you do, why stop with just family? Start arresting all their friends too. A policy like mass arrests for harrboring could be dangerous, and could ruin lives. But glad they caught this guy. And blood is thicker than water, not if your putting children in danger. Children should come first no matter what.

@ AAM

DONT BE BAFFLED. HIS FAMILY WASNT HARBOURING A FUGITIVE. HE JUST HAPPENED TO BE THERE WHEN THEY CAUGHT HIM. I WOULDNT TURN IN FAMILY FOR NOBODY. BLOOD IS THICKER THAN WATER. OBVIOUSLY YOU DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT FAMILY OR UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. I FEEL WORSE FOR YOU THAN FOR MR. FOUNTAIN.

The thing that still baffles me is why they don’t charge the family with harbouring? Maybe if we started holding everyone who helps these criminals accountable it would reduce the amount of time it takes to find them.
