Answer: It's doubtful anyone would be completely "off the hook" for stealing the Declaration of Independence and also receive a percentage of the treasure's worth, even if they revealed the location.

What do you mean by completely off the hook for stealing the declaration?
It means Ben would face no punishment for his crime.
