3.1 Introduction
Two partners plan to rob a bank. The first recruits a driver while the second purchases a shotgun from a gun dealer. The driver knows he's taking part in a robbery, although not a bank robbery. The gun dealer should have checked his customer's police record before the sale, but failed to do so. The bank is robbed, a guard is killed, and the robbers escape, only to be caught later. 'They committed bank rob bery," a prosecutor will say. But does "they" include the gun dealer, whose lax standards made the robbery possible? 'They conspired to rob the bank" - but does "they" here include the driver, who didn't know it was a bank they were robbing? "They killed a bank guard" but does it matter who pulled the trigger?
