False.
The 9th circuit court notes that the escape phase of a crime is part of the commission of a crime.
In U.S. v. Taylor, 01-10104, 9th Circ., it said that the defendant by driving the getaway car participated in the escape phase of the underlying crime, making him guilty of aiding and abetting.
Under the applicable statute, "whoever commits an offense against the United States or aids, abets, counsels, commands, induces or procures its commission, is punishable as a principal."

False, Baddy is a principle of the crime. He is in many ways, just as important as the ones inside. To be an accessory you would have to be driving down the road, see you bad buds and they say, get us out of here, we just knocked over a bank. When you are a part of the plan, you are a principle.

the answer is false
any type of crime that is going on inside the building, the baddy is a part of, and if there are weapons involved and someone is killed during this crime, the baddy in the car is guilty for being an accessory with intent to commit armed robbery and intent to murder.

False he is just as guilty of the crime as he is active and participating in the crime.
If he was the mastermind of the crime and others carried it out he is still just as guilty.
