criminal facilitation  

Définition

  • Although the rule of law differs by U.S. state, a person is guilty of criminal facilitation when, acting with knowledge that another person is committing or intends to commit a crime, he or she engages in conduct that knowingly provides this person with means or opportunity for the commission of the crime, and which in fact aids the person to commit the crime. As a category of crime, criminal facilitation essentially means that a person helped someone to commit a crime, but the person rendering assistance was not directly involved in the actual underlying criminality.
