   suspect: a person thought to be guilty of a crime or offense.   
      
   As usual, Rudy as his head up his dwarfish ass.   
      
   They are looking for a person thought to be guilty of a crime or   
   offense.   
      
   They are looking for a suspect.   
      
   The distinction between suspect and perpetrator recognizes that the   
   suspect is not known to have committed the offense, while the   
   perpetrator—who may not yet have been suspected of the crime, and is   
   thus not necessarily a suspect—is the one who did.
