Abettor }, {
Accessory }, {
Accomplice }.
Usage :
These words denote different degrees of complicity in some deed or crime .
An abettor is one who incites or encourages to the act ,
without sharing in its performance .
An accessory supposes a principal offender .
One who is neither the chief actor in an offense ,
nor present at its performance ,
but accedes to or becomes involved in its guilt ,
either by some previous or subsequent act ,
as of instigating ,
encouraging ,
aiding ,
or concealing ,
etc .,
is an accessory .
An accomplice is one who participates in the commission of an offense ,
whether as principal or accessory .
Thus in treason ,
there are no abettors or accessories ,
but all are held to be principals or accomplices .

1913 Webster ]
