Carmen Schultz Sep 26, 2005:
I didn't say it's wrong; just a simplification because I thought it would help the asker understand more about the term. Actually, the best way I've seen the concept rendered is by Prof. Holly Mikkelson,who says AUXILIAR E INCITAR.
Luis Zepeda Sep 26, 2005:
Carmen: you are correct, but that is the way the Penal Codes read. the charge on almost all codes read "aiding and abetting"
Carmen Schultz Sep 26, 2005:
La frase que se usa mayormente en este sentido es: "aid and abet"
pero para simplificar el sentido a veces los abogados dicen "aid and assist" (abet es una palabra un tanto arcaica y se usa en asuntos legales mayormente)

Creo que la solución de Holly es la que conviene ya que da la idea con mejor precisión
