      Well, depends on what they knew beforehand...if a thief calls an Uber to get home after robbing a bank, that driver is just doing his job and did nothing wrong. But if someone knew they were robbing a bank and agreed to be a getaway driver, they can’t say “what, I was paid to drive.” Or if a thief lies and tricks a locksmith into opening someone’s house, the lock smith is innocent, but if he does the exact same thing to let the thief in, knowing it’s a robbery, then that’s illegal. It is complicated.
