ACCESSORY AFTER THE FACT - Whoever, knowing that an offense has been

hinder or prevent his apprehension, trial or punishment, is an accessory
after the fact; one who knowing a felony to have been committed by
another,
receives, relieves, comforts, or assists the felon in order to hinder the
felon's apprehension, trial, or punishment. U.S.C. 18

And where does that say that failing to report a crime makes one an
accessory?

failing to report a crime comes under:
assists the offender in order to hinder or prevent his apprehension

if the pot is illegal, isn't that what she's doing? hindering/preventing
his apprehension?

it's like lying. you can lie by commission or by omission. that's why a
witness swears to tell the truth (don't lie), the whole truth (don't leave
anything out) and
nothing but the truth (don't add a lie to the truth).







Once again, thanks for proving my point.
