German Literature on Accomplice Liability:

A friend pointed me to this expression by Karl May (1842-1912), a German novelist: “Mitgegangen, mitgefangen, mitgehangen,” which basically means “gone with, caught with, hanged with.” Naturally, like “trust but verify” (dover’ay no prover’ay) and “forewarned is forearmed” (praemonitus, praemunitus), it works best in the original.
