In reply to the discussion: 3 pals of Boston Marathon bombing suspect charged with coverup [View all]Fawke Em
(11,366 posts)43. They were slowly realizing this.
They wanted it to not be true.
I guess everyone now thinks that people just have idea-pops and they change their feelings like a light switch.
Hell, my first husband cheated on me the night our son was born and it still took me months to kick him out and file for divorce.
On Edit: 1. Cheating is not murder, but the point is that I didn't stop loving him because he cheated. However, I knew I couldn't live with that.
2. You're expecting people who loved the suspect to accept that their friend is, indeed, that suspect, in two or three days.

OP
They did not have a duty to report the crime; but they did have a duty to respond truthfully

Well, if they are convicted, they will have plenty of time to get rid of that confusion.

They did know, which is why they went to destroy evidence when they saw their bomber pals on TV
