If one conjoined twin commits a murder without the consent of their twin, will both have to go to prison or nobody? (lemmings.world)

I think it should depend on the conjoined twin capacity to prevent the murder.

If he had enough control over the body but didn’t try to stop the murder he should be at least held a little responsible.

If he wouldn’t have been able to prevent the murder then he’s just a witness and shouldn’t be put in jail no matter what.

And now I wonder what would happen if the conjoined twin could be sentenced to death.
