Question Details: I was stupid a couple of years ago and told my now ex-fiance something about my son's father and what he had done in the past. I told him in complete confidence, and now that we are not together any more, he is saying that anytime I make him mad enough, he will call the cops on me. My question is this : If he were to call the cops and tell them what he knows, how much trouble will I be in , considering that I knew about the past of my son's father, but didn't do anything about it? I did not do anything about it for the sake of my son. I am scared and do not know what to do or expect. HELP!!!!
I am not entirely sure what it is but if it is ongoing, you can be an accessory to the crime. If it is not ongoing but serious enough, you can still be considered an accessory, especially if it involved someone getting injured or worse.
You may wish to ease your fears and speak to an attorney about the matter. If you are not involved with your son's father and it has been quite a long time, then you may be able to relax. Try www.attorneypages.com as one option to look for an attorney. Have you considered also informing your ex-fiance that his actions concerning his threats to you (depending on what exactly he says and what he says he is going to do) can also be construed as a crime?

Are you a lawyer?
