Jane and Tom agree to commit an armed robbery at a local store. They purchase weapons and plan the logistics, but before executing the robbery, Tom decides to withdraw the weapons and cancels the plan. Which inchoate offense have Jane and Tom most likely engaged in?
Jane and Tom have entered into an agreement to commit a crime and taken substantial steps toward its commission, which constitutes a criminal conspiracy. While they took significant actions towards the robbery, they did not move beyond the agreement to the point of attempting the actual robbery. Solicitation involves requesting someone else to commit a crime, which is not applicable here.
