Jeremiah informed the leaders of Judah that if they killed him for prophesying against them, they would carry the burden of their guilt.

Guilt is a function of our spirit and cannot be erased by drugs, booze, ignoring, or disregarding. It can only be erased when its penalty is paid or its violation made right.

For instance, if you are a thief, “Let him whole stole steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needs.” [Eph. 4:28]

Confess your sin with your mouth and be forgiven by Christ. [1 Jn. 1:9]
