misdemeanor offense

State X has a criminal statute that makes it a misdemeanor offense for anyone to fail to report a crime committed upon a child less than 15 years of age. At a high school party one night, several people watched as a 14- year- old girl was raped and beaten. Those who did not watch were made aware of the incident. None of these bystanders reported the rape and beating.

Will these bystanders be guilty as accomplices to the crime or will their guilt be determined according to the reporting statute on the books in State X. What is the difference?
