You have received some good answers. But lets look at the real question here. Are there times when you are with friends and you and they are in a mood to goof off or "have a little fun" and things get out of hand? Are there times when you know the people you are with are doing something illegal but you feel that if you don't partake then you will not get in trouble? Are there times when you know you are on the borderline of doing something wrong but do it anyway for whatever reason?
If you say yes to any of these things and get in trouble as a result you may think it is unfair. The fact is you knew the risks and the consequences but decided that the risk was worthwhile. Let your tolerance for discomfort guide your actions.
Remember, attitude is a choice.

If you take the blame, it is not the law that is at fault. Taking full blame is an act of choice. This does not implicitly make the law itself unfair. In fact, laws are only written regulations. The fairness or unfairness is an individual interoretation.

If you were involved in the commision of a crime, then the laws apply to you, whether it was your fault or idea or whatever. You commited the crime. End of story. If there are others involved and they are going to let one person take the heat for the whole thing, then that is that person's choice. No one elses.

in law you are guilty or not . if you are the sole defendant then you will be blamed if found guilty. However in mitigation you can explain why you are not entirely at fault and hope for a reduction in your sentence

The law figures if you took part in a crime you are responsible for the entire crime. They will try and prove the crime could not have been committed without your assistance.

There is a well know saying The law is a donkey! (Apparently, for some unknown reason,Yahoo restricts the use of the word "***").
It's not about justice. It's about how accomplished your solicitor/barrister is.

It really depends on what it was that was done wrong and in which circumstances. I cannot even begin to give you examples as there are far too many to mention.
