Assist in a crime (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abet

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">assist in a crime</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for abet that I've seen before include "Crookedly endorse" , "Aid and assist" , "support wrongdoing" , "Assist criminally" , "Help in wrongdoing" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, the Evening Standard, The Mirror, The New York Times and The Independent.
