Ethan did not confess to a priest, he confessed to his father. Pretty sure Charles is a Angican vicar, not a Catholic priest, so the confidence of the confessional probably does not apply.
Frank's death may have been an accident, in that they did not set out to kill him, but it was still an unlawful act that happened during the furtherance of a crime. Probably would be seen as involuntary manslaughter, or unlawful act manslaughter both of which carry custodial sentences, and the dreadful mother and daughter were quite happy to see someone else get the blame.

All vicars are priestsFair enough. Can we stop them being refered to as murderers then ???Frank's death may have been an accident, in that they did not set out to kill him, but it was still an unlawful act that happened during the furtherance of a crime.

All vicars may be priests, but not all priests take confession. Ethan was not speaking to Charles as a priest in a confessional, so should have no expectation of confidentiality.
I cannot recall if I have ever referred to them as murderers, usually I say they were responsible for his death.

Maybe it's because I was a newer viewer who didn't know the history of the characters, but I still have a harshness to Charles for planting the necklace on his father, who died with everyone believing he was a thief.
Maybe it's with that lesson learned that he turned Ethan in, but it all came across very hypocritical to me.
I don't know why Suni hasn't told Ruby and Caleb how heroic Nicky was, racing to come to save him from those who attacked him. I suppose it has to linger so the story could drag on and they won't realize that Ethan was helping him to save Suni.
