> Nobody is talking about donating all time, money and resources of anyone towards that goal.
That is exactly what you implied by mocking the fact that the OP even asked the question.
> I see no reason OP shouldn't be legally compelled to cooperate in an investigation in at least the same way a witness can be.
This is irrelevant to the question of whether the OP should look out for personal interests. You implied that one should not be so selfish as to even ask the questions about personal risks and costs. You mocked the very idea that he might ask such a question.
Before you make such a callous and judgmental comment, you should really think about what you would yourself sacrifice to cooperate with law enforcement. If you had, you would not have been so myopic. You would't question the seriousness of the question, even if you still thought that cooperation was necessary.
