Answer:

Confederates had small advantages because they were close to home which meant they had quick access to supplies and familiarity of the battlegrounds. BUT OVERALL the industrialized Union possessed an enormous advantage over the Confederacy — they had 20,000 miles of railroad track, more than double the Confederacy’s 9,000 miles. Troops and supplies that were previously dependent on man or horse power could now move easily by rail, making railroads attractive military targets. The Union controlled 70% of the country’s total miles of track and owned 96% of U.S. railroad equipment, which meant it was ideally prepared for damage replacement when bridges, rail rights-of-way or rolling stock were destroyed. This strength was an early indicator of rail’s ability to shape future military strategy.

The defendant discovered that his friend had hit and killed a pedestrian while driving that afternoon, and that he had fled from

storchak [24]

Answer:

Not guilty, because he only helped his friend after the crime was already committed.

<h3> 1. Principals Parties</h3>

This is simply refred to as those individual are those who along with required mental state, actually engage in the act or omission that causes the criminal result.

<h3>2. An accomplice </h3>

This is simply refered to as an individual who with the known intention that the crime be committed, aids, counsels, or encourages the principal before or during the process of the offense being carried out. Under modern statutes, accomplices are generally treated as principals.

<h3>3. An accessory after the fact</h3>

This is refered to as individuals one who receives, relieves, comforts, or assists another knowing that he has committed a felony, in order to help the felon escape arrest, trial, or conviction.

When compared to an accomplice, an accessory after the fact has actually committed a separate crime with a punishment and it is totally different and unrelated to the felony committed by the friend in this case. In the instant case, it is obvious that the defendant helped his friend in avoiding capture, that he provided no aid to the substantive offense, and that he did not intend the substantive offense to occur. Thus, he is an accessory after the fact and not an accomplice. Therefore, the defendant is not an accomplice, so due to the facts presented, it can therefore be said that he cannot be criminally liable for any other crimes committed by his friend.
