Accomplice in Europe
Definition of Accomplice
Any person who, either as a principal or as an accessory, has been associated with another person in the commission of any offence. The evidence of an accomplice is admissible, but the Judge should warn the jury of the danger of convicting on such evidence unless corroborated. “This rule of practice has become virtually equivalent to a rule of law” (U. v. Baskerville (1917), 86.
L. J. K. B. 28). In some offences, corroboration is required by statute, e.g., Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1885, ss. 2, 3
