Assisted a felon (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abetted

(Other definitions for abetted that I've seen before include "Assisted (someone) to do wrong" , "Assisted or encouraged in some wrongdoing" , "Aided and helped" , "Given help" , "Aided in crime" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
