Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.
If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.
Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.
Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.
Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.
Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.

Yeah, all of this.
I will add I was also referring to like "harboring" a suspect, but that may not even apply. Maybe it's more "obstructing justice" I don't know how these work for this scenario.
I can guess that if someone texts you they murdered someone and tells you plans for a getaway or whatever, you do nothing with that information, and later the person is captured and the messages discovered... you're gonna have a "not good" time.
It would be one thing I think to be generally aware of the murder either through some sort of witnessing of it (guy running away from the scene) or they confess to you verbally in person at some point.
It's a bit different I think when it's during the "manhunt" stage and the guy is directly contacting you with information such as they did it, how they did it, where they are currently located, etc. At the absolute least cops are gonna be digging into your entire life to find out why you were contacted and why you didn't report them to police immediately. That's just common sense on their end. And that investigation and possible (because I'm not sure) charges is what I meant. You're subjecting a totally outside person to the authorities. Whether or not anything happens legally from it, you're gonna have to get a lawyer and deal with years of shit when you could have honestly said "He never mentioned it to me ever" otherwise.
Of course just the circumstances of being the roommate basically guarantees they were going to investigated the moment he decided to actually do this... but yeah.
