Help in crime (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abet

'help in crime' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for abet that I've seen before include "support wrongdoing" , "Aid (in wrongdoing)" , "Assist wrongly!" , "Aid in offence" , "Support, aid" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the USA Today, the King Feature Syndicate, The Mirror, the Penny Press and The New York Times.
