Robert Caulk proposed the following answer:
You can use the jcfpm argument in the vtkrecorder:

VTKRecorder(recorders=['spheres',intr','jcfpm'])

This recorder tracks jcfpm specific interaction characteristics, such as
"isCohesive" which will show the bonds that are no longer cohesive in
paraview.

You can also use the 'recordCracks=True' argument for the jcpfm law:

Law2_ScGeom_JCFpmPhys_JointedCohesiveFrictionalPM(recordCracks=True)

which will allow you to track the type of cracks (tensile or shear).
I've had mixed luck with visualizing that vtu in paraview, so I find it
easier to use python to plot the cracks.txt file that is also generated.
