A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To make the commission of a crime easier.

Example: If someone leaves their car unlocked with the keys inside, they are facilitating the theft of their car.

In criminal law, the term "facilitate" refers to actions or conditions that make it easier for a crime to be committed. For example, leaving a door unlocked or providing access to tools or weapons that could be used in a crime could be considered facilitating criminal activity. In some cases, property that is used to facilitate a crime may be subject to forfeiture.
