Subject-Verb Agreement

• Subject-verb agreement refers to the rules which guide us in the correct placement of the verbs based on the number of the subject.

• In the given sentence, the main subject is 'criminal.'

• According to the rules, the sentences containing 'with' should take a singular verb. 'Was' is a singular verb.

• 'Were' and 'are' are plural verbs. Thus they are not taken.
