Re: What is aiding and abedding and the penalties you can receive
Harboring a fugitive is a serious criminal offense which could get you jail time. Depending upon your prior criminal history, it could result in several years incarceration upon conviction. Get advice from a local criminal lawyer. Your bar association will recommend one. My advice is to get out of your situation and let this person take care of things without you. You are at too much risk to continue.
