  • A lot of people don't realize that aiding and abetting

  • a crime subjects you to the same penalty

  • as you would face if you would have actually

  • been the principal committing the crime.

  • In the state of Nevada, an aider and abettor

  • is treated as a principal.

  • Aiding and abetting is helping, counseling,

  • or encouraging somebody to commit a crime.

  • A typical example of aiding and abetting would be,

  • a friend decides that they're going to rob a bank.

  • They ask you to drive the vehicle.

  • You agree to drive the vehicle, but you

  • say I'm not going inside the bank.

  • Some people think that if they're only

  • driving the vehicle, they could not possibly

  • be charged with bank robbery.

  • But that's not true.

  • If you assist someone, for example, by driving get-away.

  • You are actually assisting them in the commission of the crime.

  • And therefore, under Nevada law, and also under federal law,

  • you would be held accountable for bank robbery

  • even if you just drove they get-away car.

  • Additionally, you could be found accountable

  • for any crime that could be a natural and probable

  • consequence of the commission of the crime

  • that you attended to aid and abet.

  • For example, if you knew that your friend was going in

  • to rob a bank with a gun and somebody got shot,

  • you could not only be charged with bank robbery,

  • but you could be charged with murder if that person died.

  • Just because you're in a vehicle and somebody

  • commits a crime in your presence, that does not

  • mean that you're legally accountable.

  • So mere presence is a defense to a charge

  • of aiding and abetting.

  • Additionally, mere knowledge without assistance

  • is not a crime.

  • So if you know somebody is going to commit a crime

  • and you don't do anything to stop it,

  • but you don't do anything to help or assist them,

  • then you would not be guilty of aiding and abetting.

  • Of course in all circumstances, it's incumbent upon the state

  • to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you were knowingly

  • and intentionally aiding and abetting a crime

  • in order to find you guilty.
