Thank you for the clarification.srothstein wrote:Consider it like the old cases of the wives of mafia members. They had to have known, but the husbaands kept their work lives separate from their family lives and never ever discussed business with the wives. Thus the wives were legally not part of the conspiracy and could not be charged.

Re: Diane Sawyer/Joe Horn
srothstein,
I was thinking of the fact that he had already committed at least one crime in the U.S. and was deported back to Columbia. Wouldn't his willful return make him a fugitive? It seems that there would be only a slim chance that she wouldn't know about this.
Also, he was part of a crime ring. I don't see how she couldn't know about this. I guess the difficult part would be proving it. Is that what you were saying? Or is it simply that living with a criminal and having knowledge of their activities and not reporting them is not a crime?
I'm just wanting to clarify.

Re: Diane Sawyer/Joe Horn
This doesn't seem to register with most people. I don't understand how she hasn't already been prosecuted for this, considering that the police had been investigating this particular crime ring prior to Joe Horn's incident.Molon_labe wrote:a. she is harboring a fugitiveboomerang wrote:I'd like to see her prosecuted for aiding and abetting.KC5AV wrote:The woman who planned to marry one of the burglars has indicated that she is at least looking at the possibility of a civil suit against Horn.
b. Joe was no billed (wasn't something written in the law about justifiable or something)
c. Trial couldnt be held in TX, the prosecuting attorney would go thru 12million people to find one that didn't want to pat Joe on the back
Diane really railroaded Joe...
I offer one piece of advice Joe..SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't you learn your lesson that running your mouth can cause massive trouble...just zip it and carry on
I also don't understand how she could personally collect from Joe Horn since she isn't legally a relative of one of these men. She might be able to collect on behalf of their child, but that might even be a stretch.
