"They can’t arrest a husband and wife for the same crime."
They can, they'll just have to find other evidence. If there's a court case with the defendants being a married couple who both refuse to testify and there's no other evidence, it's essentially the same as a court case with one defendant that's refusing to testify against themself and there's no other evidence. Both cases will result in dismissal.
The person you're replying to was quoting Arrested Development.
