I think observing a crime like that but not reporting it (so more crimes can be amassed by that person) should be considered legal endorsement of the activity.

That's how it works in civil law, showing that criminal law can be beyond fucked up. I can't remember the name of the principle, but you can't make or simply wait for the other party's grievance to tally up so you can sue for more money.
