the crime of encouraging, inducing or assisting another in the commission of perjury,
which is knowingly telling an untruth under oath. Example lawyer Frank Foghorn is
interviewing a witness in an accident case who tells Foghorn that Foghorn's client
was jaywalking outside the crosswalk when struck by the defendant's car. Foghorn
tells the witness to help his client by saying the accident occurred in the crosswalk
and the witness so testifies in court. Foghorn is guilty of subornation of the witness's
perjury.
