FALSEHOOD
This is the property or characteristics of being false. It is a false statement, especially an intentional one. It is the state of being untrue.
THEFT
This is the act of stealing. This can come in any form whether taking of property, money or document that does not belong to someone
ACCESSORY
The charge of accessory can be brought against anyone who helps someone else commit a crime, either before the crime takes place or afterward. If you know someone who is planning to commit a crime and you do anything to help – plan the crime, loan him or her money or tools, or even just give advice – you can be charged with accessory before the fact.
Likewise, if you know someone who has already committed a crime and you do anything to help – such as give him or her a place to hide or help him or her destroy evidence – you can be charged with accessory in the court of law.
