Is aiding and abetting a crime separate and distinct from that of conspiracy?

"The crime of aiding and abetting ⁸ is a separate and distinct offense from that of conspiracy. [Citation.] Although the rape and conspiracy charges involved some of the same acts as were involved in the section 288a Penal Code and robbery charges, the acquittal on the first two charges [rape and conspiracy] does not affect the validity of the conviction on the other two charges.... [I]n considering the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the conviction on the section 288a of the Penal Code and robbery counts[,] the court must consider all of the evidence, including the relevant portions of the evidence relating to the rape and conspiracy charges." (People v. Villa, supra, 156 Cal.App.2d at p. 133, 318 P.2d 828, emphasis added.) ⁹
