Palm Beach Criminal Conspiracy Lawyer
What is criminal conspiracy?
If your
white collar crime charges involve criminal conspiracy then you need to have a thorough understanding
of what these allegations entail. When multiple individuals join forces
to engage in criminal activity of any nature, it may be classified as
conspiracy. In general, conspiracy charges can be made whenever a group
of people comes together with the intent to enact any of the following
behaviors:
- Facilitation and / or promotion of the commission of a crime, including
solicitation of a crime
- Agreement to aid another person or group in their efforts to plan, commit,
solicit a crime of any nature
If either one of these conditions is met the crime may be classified as
conspiracy. Specifically, legal officials are looking for group activity
that involved pre-planning of some nature. Under these circumstances,
a criminal allegation may be made and a
Palm Beach criminal defense lawyer should be contacted as soon as possible.
Criminal Attorney for Conspiracy Charges in Palm Beach
If you are facing conspiracy charges then you may be familiar with the
terms "hub-and-spoke conspiracy," and "chain conspiracy."
These are the two most prominent forms of conspiracy for which an individual
may incur criminal charges. Hub-and-spoke conspiracy is a term used to
describe the coming together of many individuals with one person that
is not the defendant. Crimes of this nature are often advantageous for
the defendant because they inherently imply that the defendant is on trial
for an accusation entirely separate from the act of conspiracy of the
other parties.
A chain conspiracy, on the other hand, directly implicates a defendant,
as it implies that the defendant is one in a chain of links that are all
involved in a long criminal chain of conspiracies. Under these charges,
a defendant will be automatically assumed responsible for the actions
of the other participants in the chain. This is true regardless of whether
or not the participants ever met one another or had any interaction at all.
