Conspiracy in Gainesville, Bushnell & Ocala, Florida

Conspiracy is a criminal offense involving two or more people who agree to commit a crime and take some sort of action toward its completion. Whether or not the crime was successfully carried out, conspiracy is still a criminal offense. In fact, if you conspire to commit a felony, you may be punished to the same extent as you would if you had carried out the crime.

In order to be convicted of conspiracy, you must have agreed to commit a crime, planned the crime or taken some sort of action toward the completion of the crime. A simple agreement does not constitute conspiracy, as action must have been taken toward carrying out the agreed upon crime.
