Imagine being present during a crime, perhaps simply lending a friend a ride, and suddenly finding yourself facing the same charges as the person who committed the main offense—even if you never touched the weapon or physically harmed anyone. This is the complex reality of being charged as an accomplice. The law often looks beyond the person who pulls the trigger to hold those who facilitated, assisted, or planned the crime equally accountable. Read on to grasp the legal standards that determine how people are legally charged as an accomplice and what it takes for a simple presence to escalate into serious criminal liability.
