Re: Criminal Law question
The law in this area has been seen as a vehicle to discourage the aid of others in helping to bring criminal activity to fruition.
Whether it is fair or not needs to give way to effectively advocating on behalf of the accomplice given the facts presented if it is approriate under the circumstances.
