Hypothetically speaking,
if Madoff's kids weren't involved with defrauding billions from investors, but they clearly benefited financially, are they guilty of anything? What if they don't return the money once they find out about the fraud? Are they guilty then? They don't know exactly how much was ill gotten and who is owed what. Are they guilty to keep it, if they weren't involved in the original fraud? Are they guilty at all for living high on the hog for all those years? Assuming they didn't know?
