In the law enforcement jargon, a suspect is a known person accused or suspected of committing a crime. Police and reporters in the United States often use the word suspect as a jargon when referring to the perpetrator of the offense (perp in dated US slang). However, in official definition, the perpetrator is the robber, assailant, counterfeiter, etc.âthe person who committed the crime.
What Does It Mean To Be Indicted? When someone is charged with a felony, at some point the state has to present âprobable causeâ to show that a crime had been committed and that the person in question committed it.
