One crime has to be concealed by another.

Summary

This quote suggests that committing a crime often leads to a chain of additional crimes as individuals try to cover up the initial wrongdoing. When someone commits a criminal act, they might find themselves forced to engage in further illegal activities to hide the evidence or protect themselves from being caught. The quote implies that concealment becomes a compelling necessity in order to remain safe from the consequences of a crime, leading individuals down a path of continuous deception and possible entanglement in a web of criminal behavior.
