I would most definitiley turn them in, reason being I have a life of my own regardless if were madly in love I am NOT trying to go to jail for anyone especially for something i didn't do even if it does make me a snitch i will be a free snitch. (:

Most likely I would turm them in. It really depends on the situation. If I didnt turn them in, yes I would regret it everyday, and I would probably be living in fear of if he would kill me. Lets say my daughter got killed by a drunk driver and the drunk survived. I would want the drunk dead, so if my spouse killed the drunk, I wouldn't turn my spouse in. But if he is just running around killing people for no reason or because he is mad, yes I would turn him in.

I would turn in my wife. I don't think i could live with guilt of a murder on my conscience. Even though it is the person I love i would encourage her to turn herself in and do the right thing. I wouldn't want to go to jail for someone elses crime, and would turn her in.

Murder is a despicable sin that should never be tolerated. If at one point my wife was to confide of commiting a murder, I would turn her over to the police in a blink of an eye. Reason being is that, if she was cappable of murdering once, what's stopping her from becoming a serial killer. Love may overcome many things, but i believe murder is not one of them.

Yes I would turn my wife in, although it sounds mean its the right thing to do. Murder is not something that you can run away from, you must face the music and accept the punishment. If you are told of a murder and it goes to court, you are considered an accesory to murder and could face many years in prison. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.

I would turn my spouse in, because I would not want to be a suspect. Even though I would love my spouse, I can not ruin my work life or personal life. If I would have kids, I would want to protect them too. My spouse would probably never speak to me, but I know that my life is safe.

If they took it upon themselves to commit the crim then they can live with and take the consequences for doing it. Clearly he threw what our vows stood for out his mind and didnt think of the out come or how it would effect our family. I would'nt just call he cops on him, but I would move out and tell him that if he cared about me an the family that we have together that he would turn his self in. I would also explain to him that he should would want to set a good example for our son (if we had one) and do what a REAL man should do.

I would not tell on him but i would tell someone to turn him in due to my life and my babys life. If he made that decision he has to face the consequences. :D

It depends why my wife did it. Like if somebody had tried to kill her or hurt her with out me being there then no i wouldn't say nothing. But if she said i just wanted to because it looks fun then i would, because she aint going to kill me.!!!

"To have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, 'till death do us part. And hereto I pledge you my faithfulness."

Personally if, and when i do happen to marry another person; those vows will go above the law. I'm not saying i'll support their actions, but turning them in would be against my marriage vows.

I wouldnt turn my wife in because if it was self defense its okay, but if she did it intentionally I would tell her she had to leave and I wouldnt help her.

If the man I'm down for, my husband, my boo is in trouble, I'm going to help him get away with it.

Now if he's insane, I most definately will report him, and get away for my sake, but if it's a Gucci Mane incident where as its self defense or he's protecting himself and no one believes him, it's going to be Bonnie and Clyde all over again.

Knowing my fiance i know she would never kill another person unless there is a reason behind it. If she comes to me telling me a man put a gun to her or my kid then i would tell her good job for killing him. There are reasons behind everything that happens we just have to figure out what it is.

Side: No

Well it also depends what my wife did. If a man was trying to steal her purse or trying to rape her then no I would not turn her in. Because she was defending herself she should not be turned in for that. Even if she did kill someone for some other reason than that. I don't know if I would turn her in because she is my wife and the love of my life. It would be the hardest thing to lose her. So I'm pretty undesicive on the situation.

Side: No
