Compounding the original crime by committing another. You can be charged with "aiding and abetting a fugitive from justice" which will earn you no stars or Yahoo points. Also you may be putting yourself at considerable risk and in thrall to an unstable person, be he/she friend or foe. Instead of thinking your refusal to be a fool is a form of betrayal, think of yourself as a responsible individual free from suicidal tendencies in this case.

Not Good, in most states you could be charged with Harboring a Fugitive. You could permanently have a criminal record, fines, jail ect.

in some cases I would call it a compassionate and humanitarian act, unfortunately it is called " harboring a fugitive"in some states they will call it "aiding and abetting"
there is a long list of charges they can place against some one .even tho they are all basically the same.
