Totally. They sneaked him out of their own house, and afterwards they knew exactly where to find him. I don't think you can hold them personally responsible for Gabbi's death, but they are absolutely responsible for Brian's. His life might have been saved through coming clean. But for whatever reason they really did not want that, I still cannot wrap my mind around that at all. It's like they just couldn't face the truth themselves, but the thing is that that idea conflicts with the "burn after reading" letter, at least with the most obvious interpretation of it.

He drove his mom's car, wearing her hat and so people thought it was her, right? And they didn't notice he was gone for days? Nah.

they also went and picked up the car when it got ticketed without allowing the police to know about it. They never contacted the police about it.
