"no body, no crime" is a song written and recorded by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, featuring guest vocals from American rock band HAIM. It is the sixth track on her ninth studio album, evermore, released on December 11, 2020, through Republic Records. The National member Aaron Dessner produced the song.

Channeling noir storytelling, "no body, no crime" is an upbeat country, country rock and pop rock track that details the fictitious story of a woman named Este, who is murdered by her husband when she finds about his infidelity. Unable to prove the husband guilty of Este's murder, a friend of Este (the song's narrator) avenges Este's death by murdering her husband and erasing all evidence of the murder.

Upon release of Evermore, "no body, no crime" received rave reviews from music critics, who dubbed it a flashback to Swift's country roots, and praised the cinematic style and plot of its lyrics. It reached the top-20 region of record charts in Australia, Canada, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. In the United States, the track peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, and number 34 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking Haim's first-ever Hot 100 entry. "no body, no crime" impacted US country radio as a single on January 11, 2021.
