It depends on which jurisdiction you are in. For instance, which country, which state?? In the US and UK, generally you do NOT have to report a murder. There are exceptions: - in Ohio you do need to report it, but can do it anonymously via phone, mail, or email (be careful about tracing mechanisms). There are no time limits on when to report. And if you do not report a crime, it is unlikely to be prosecuted. But there is a law on the books. - in Texas you do need to report knowledge of a homicide unless someone else has done it. Most crimes do not need to be reported in the US and UK. There are a few exceptions, primarily reporting child abuse by mandated reporters (like doctors and counselors), and perhaps a crime here or there depending on jurisdiction. Do note: - concealing a crime intentionally and not reporting it (both of these together) is a misprision of felony. - aiding a criminal or encouraging (inciting) a crime may make you an accessory to the crime. This may include helping cover up or clean up the crime. - lying to law enforcement agents (police, etc) or courts is a crime.
