Pretty sure not reporting a crime and even not assisting in an investigation doesn't count as obstruction. We aren't required to assist the justice department do their job. Even when asked to do so. A judge has to be used to legally require information out of a person. Obstruction is usually limited to physical intervention that knowingly and intentionally inhibits the duties of a law-person.

Duck Duck Go and Claude concur, fwiw. Except:

If law enforcement directly questions you about a crime, you must be truthful. Lying to federal investigators is itself a crime under 18 U.S.C. § 1001, and similar state laws often exist for state investigations.

Eh, that only matters if they can prove it was a lie. "I don't recall" is something everyone can get away with.
