Perpetrator (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

culprit

'perpetrator' is the definition.
(I know that culprit is a type of perpetrator)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for culprit that I've seen before include "Offender or guilty party" , "The one to blame, guilty party" , "The person to blame, the guilty one" , "Wrongdoer" , "Perpetrator of a wrongdoing" .)

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