You know what though? That had to be a difficult decision. Especially, to find out that someone you love and look up to did something so wrong.

I agree. The father may have told his sons early on in life to always do the right thing in choices they made in life...and if so the Dad himself sure didn't live up to his own advice as it turns out. That's the irony there. :(

I highly doubt it. They have probably been raised around this kind of thing since birth. But they made a honorable decision to turn in their dad. They obviously have someone in their life who taught them right from wrong thank goodness, but I don't think it was their dad. Maybe they will make money the honest way when they are adults.

I can only imagine how hard it was for the boys to turn him in. They did do the right thing.
