Is an aider and abettor liable for any other crime that was a natural and probable consequence of the crime?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Garcia, H038479 (Cal. App. 2014):
16. "[U]nder the natural and probable consequences doctrine, an aider and abettor is guilty not only of the intended crime, but also 'for any other offense that was a "natural and probable consequence" of the crime aided and abetted.' [Citation.]" (People v. McCoy, supra, 25 Cal.4th at p. 1117.) Only the intended crime is at issue here; accordingly, nothing we say takes into account natural and probable consequences.
