If you are the owner of the compound bow as for your responsibility on ownership, you would not be liable criminally nor civilly if it is taken out of your possession and use in a manner inconsistent with its purpose for which you purchased it. It sounds ambiguous I know. what I mean by that is this, if the person that has a felony conviction takes possession of it and uses it in a manner inconsistent with providing sustenance for the household but in a manner which is inviolate of civilization,meaning commits a crime with it, then only that person is liable for damages by law. possession of a compound bow as far as I know according to any state law by a non-felon is legal. however, a person with a felony conviction purchasing obtaining, or possessing a firearm of any type, pardons not withstanding, would be violating criminal codes of every state and could be held liable civilly as well even though that person never harmed another human with the bow. however if you had mentioned that it was a cross bow then yes both you and the convicted felon could possibly face both criminal and civil liability. it would strictly depend on the codes of the state in which you are living. hopefully this helped some.

i think none. because, a felon can go to a store and buy the compound bow...also, i know felons that go hunting with guns because their attorney said, sdfasdf for it....dont worry.

check your state law. i am almost certain you have no liability.

Actually none, the charges would be on the felon for being there with a wep, even if the wep is not his/her's

Isn't it illegal to harbour a criminal?
