Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mark and Jack have committed the crime of criminal conspiracy as they have made an agreement to commit a criminal act (robbery) and have taken steps towards carrying out that act, such as procuring floor plans and weapons. Even though they were arrested before the robbery took place, the crime of criminal conspiracy has already been committed. The other options listed (extortion, money laundering, and larceny) are not relevant to the situation described.
