There's an example of someone being tried for conspiracy to commit a crime without having taken part in the final act. There's a death penalty at stake in this case. Please note that I'm not defending the man at all, it's just the first example that sprang to mind.[/quote:4ae96ceee9]

That's not exactly the same as what I was describing. In this case it seems that the charge is more one of aiding/abetting the crime that did happen (i.e. september 11th)[/quote:4ae96ceee9]

The 6 charges against him are all of conspiracy, but yes, I see that as the crime was still committed but not by him it's not a perfect example.
