Criminal
Associating with a criminal often touches entanglement with the unscrupulous — those who'd use your trust for their own ends. The dream may ask whose company is compromising you, what dangerous secrets you've stumbled into, and where a friendship is being bent toward someone's advancement rather than yours.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for criminal, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of associating with a person who has committed a crime, denotes that you will be harassed with unscrupulous persons, who will try to use your friendship for their own advancement.
To see a criminal fleeing from justice, denotes that you will come into the possession of the secrets of others, and will therefore be in danger, for they will fear that you will betray them, and consequently will seek your removal.
Fontaine, 1862
(See Reprieve.) To dream that you are a criminal, shows that disgrace and danger are in store for you.
