You might be charged with being what if you intentionally aided the principal actor to engage in the commission of an offense?

An accessory
A principal
A witness
A defendant

The correct answer is: An accessory

If you intentionally helped someone else commit a crime, you could be charged as an accessory. This means that you assisted the main person in carrying out the illegal act and are therefore also responsible for the offense. A principal would be the main person who committed the crime. A witness is someone who witnessed the crime but did not take part in it. A defendant is someone who is accused of or on trial for a crime. Because the question specifically mentions aiding the principal actor, it implies that the person being charged with being an accessory did not directly commit the crime themselves, making them an accessory rather than a principal or defendant.
