090329-FN2/Accomplices


The nomenclature varies per jurisdiction. In general, "accessories" are those who do something before or after the crime. “Accomplices” are those who directly co-participate in the deed in what might be called being an accessory in the fact. Eg. two robbers, one who holds the gun, while the other demands and gets the cash. Whatever the nomenclature the question concerns degree of proximity of involvement.
