A quick definition of compounding a felony:

Term: Compounding a felony

Definition: Compounding a felony is when someone who knows about a crime agrees not to tell the police or hide evidence in exchange for money or something else. This is against the law and can result in punishment like going to jail or paying a fine. Different states have their own laws about compounding a felony.

A more thorough explanation:

Compounding a felony is a crime committed by a victim of a crime who agrees not to prosecute the felon or suppress the evidence against them in exchange for money or some other form of compensation. This is a serious offense that can result in imprisonment or a fine.

For example, in Massachusetts, compounding a felony is defined as taking money or a reward in exchange for an agreement to conceal or not prosecute a felony. The punishment for this crime depends on the severity of the felony and can range from a fine to imprisonment in jail or state prison.

Similarly, in California, compounding a felony is also defined as a crime, and the punishment for it is outlined in the Penal Code Section 153.

These examples illustrate how compounding a felony is a crime that can result in serious consequences for those who engage in it. It is important to report crimes and cooperate with law enforcement to ensure justice is served.
