Arnold is a bank employee. He has told his colleague Adolf about his intention of embezzling some funds from the bank. Instead of advising Arnold against committing such a crime, Adolf has been encouraging his friend to go ahead with the embezzlement. Which type of incomplete crime is Adolf committing in this scenario?

A.
conspiracy
B.
solicitation
C.
attempt
D.
larceny

Respuesta :

The correct answer is B. solicitation.

Indeed, solicitation is defined as the act of encouraging, ordering, asking or soliciting another individual or group of individuals to commit an illegal act. If the crime is not committed, the legal violation is actually conspiracy. If the crime is committed the conspiracy offense is added to the substantive criminal act itself.
