It's when someone else commits a crime (ex: murder) and someone else helps/aids them afterward. Even though this person didn't commit the crime, they can still be charged.

Ex: John kills Alice. He calls Tim to help him get rid of the body. Even though Tim didn't kill Alice, he can be charged as an "assesory after the fact". Now, if Tim comes & sees the murder scene & calls the police, he's not an assesory...
