Remorse caused by feeling responsible for doing wrong (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

guilt

(Other definitions for guilt that I've seen before include "Bad conscience" , "uncomfortable feeling" , "The fact of having done wrong" , "Responsibility for criminal offence" , "State of having committed offence" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
