The FBI rule for Acting in Concert requires all offenders to commit or assist in the commission of all
the crimes in an incident. The offenders must be aware of, and consent to, the commission of all the
offenses; or even if nonconsenting, their actions assist in the commission of all the offenses.
The FBI definition of an Incident/Case is one or more offenses committed by the same offender, or
group of offenders acting in concert, at the same time and place. If all offenders are not associated with all offenses, then multiple cases need to be created. This tutorial demonstrates how to employ the solution to assist with the creation of the additional cases in RIMS for most situations.
