Answer (2)

Under the Pinkerton rule, individuals can be charged for both conspiracy and for the crime committed in furtherance of that conspiracy. This rule allows co-conspirators to be held liable for the actions of their partners during the crime. For instance, if a robbery leads to a murder, all conspirators can face murder charges, regardless of their direct involvement. ;

The correct answer is B. The Pinkerton rule, which allows for individuals to be charged with both conspiracy and the underlying crime as long as the crime was committed in furtherance of the conspiracy. This rule holds all co-conspirators responsible for foreseeable actions taken by any member of the conspiracy. An example is if a robbery plan leads to a murder, all conspirators can be charged with murder regardless of their direct involvement.
