They did make the decision not to talk to the cops the 1st night they stopped by looking for Gabby. Sure,, the son made the original bad decision, but they certainly compounded it with their actions and other decisions.

I followed the original story and did not realize what a delay that all created. Seeing the footage in the documentary blew my mind, how quickly they had a lawyer, you knew she was dead then :(

Same . I was kind of impressed in a weird way in how they used the system. Unethical yes, but as long as they didn’t help him in the murder or coverup, they didn’t technically do anything illegal in not talking to the police and lawyering up

I am surprised that is not considered an after-the-fact accessory or aiding/abetting a criminal or something? IANAL :)
