As far as being guilty for knowing. We have actually real cases to refer to how it works. Such as when someone is suspected or has created a bomb. With the family members they may have known their son had the materials but the family does not go to jail. You have the people who shot up a place. They family admits they know the child had problems. They also admit they knew the kid had guns. Some have even admitted the child has talked about hurting others. In one case they showed the mother was the one that bought the gun her son used. These family members are not in jail.
There is a real famous case where a cleric was suspected of teaching members of the group how to make bombs. They had to classify him as a combatant because he could not be convicted of a crime. Even though he instructed and incited his followers.
I never said that conviction was assured, in fact I have repeatedly said that the discussion is moot because charges will never be brought. And even if they were, in real life Oregon we had a bunch of domestic terrorists take over a wildlife reserve for weeks and vandalize the hell out of it last year, and a jury acquitted them of all charges. If someone kills all the witnesses, destroys all the evidence or can't competently prosecute, guilty people can and will be acquitted.
And in case someone thinks this is all about persecuting Juliette...
Nick, Hank and Wu conspired to kill Kenneth while he was in police custody.
Sean framed Kenneth for multiple murders (which is ironic because Kenneth was guilty of multiple murders, just not those murders).
Adalind was pregnant with a child conceived while she was having sex with Nick through deception/impersonation, which here in Oregon is called "sexual abuse in the third degree." This is only a misdemeanor here, btw.
Trubel is probably ok on killing the hundjager who attacked her outside Nick's home, but she did participate in the removing/concealing evidence from the scene of a felony, which is in itself a felony.
And Monroe and Rosalee are accessories before and after the fact to just about every legally questionable act that Nick and Hank have committed since S01 and at least one or two of Sean's.
If episodes of Grimm were admissible in court, the entire cast of characters would be serving time in Salem or Coffee Creek. And that's just for what they did in one season of the show.
I think Bud hadn't done anything seriously illegal by S04.
