Was poor little Marisol Reyes just a sad coincidence?
I'm inclined to think that she was thrown in there as a red herring, and also as a little social commentary on the state of affairs in Neptune (and likely the real world, unfortunately).
Will Celeste be booked on obstruction of justice as well? What about good old Clarence?
I don't know about Clarence, but it's possible that Jake might take the fall for the family and say that Celeste and Duncan knew nothing about it (which in Duncan's case is true of course).
As for the Logan thing, I don't know if you'll consider this a good defense, but I would argue that as she was confronting Jake about something unrelated to the murder, and as she didn't intend to reveal to Duncan that she considered him a suspect, that those are different cases than with Logan. Even though Jake was a murder suspect in her eyes, he's probably not going to kill her for accusing him of something unrelated, though he might if he was a murderer and thought that she could prove it. And she didn't think that Duncan killed Lilly intentionally, or that he even knew if he had done it. It's maybe a little risky seeking out somebody who might be prone to violent episodes, but she didn't have any reason to think that merely talking to him would trigger it, and she didn't know when she went to talk to him that he was aware of her investigation. It wouldn't have been smart to tell Logan that she suspected him of murder, because if he really had done it then knowing that she suspected would have made her a direct target, which I don't think is the case in her confrontations with Jake and Duncan. I'm not saying that those confrontations were the best idea, but I do see them as being different. And if she really did think that Logan could be the killer, well she probably would have been safe enough hanging out with him if she didn't let on that she suspected him, but she wasn't exactly in the state of mind to be able to be around him and act like that nothing had happened.
Finally, would you really want to revisit a relationship with a guy who's admitted that he had sex with you while he was under the impression that you were siblings?
Ew, no. I mean I like Duncan, but still. No. I do think that relationship will be explored at some point, though. But ew.
