Show to be involved in a crime (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

implicate

(Other definitions for implicate that I've seen before include "Involve in a crime, ensnare" , "Involve in, say a crime" , "Grass up" , "Point finger at criminal" , "Suggest someone is involved or took part in a crime" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and The Times.
