Answer 2

Criminal

Step-by-step explanation:

A person who commits a crime is ordinarily a criminal before the law as the word could be generally and broadly applied. A crime could be defined as any act harmful to some persons or a community. Normally a country has its criminal law or criminal code which defines crime and what constitutes a criminal offense. While some crimes may not necessarily be "crime" as to be treated as a criminal act and will generally be a civil case, in the case above, the suspects have committed a crime and under most state laws(criminal law) would be deemed to have committed a criminal act.
