If someone tells you they are going to commit a crime, what are you supposed to do?

Asked by SamIAm (8703points) January 8th, 2011

Legally – go to the police? What if you think they aren’t serious?

If something happens, are you considered an accomplice if you have knowledge of a crime before it is committed and don’t take action?

Does this all depend on the type and severity of the crime?

How does this differ in other parts of the world?

This stuff is so interesting, I should have gone to law school
