Bring Into Connection

Some definition of the verb "implicate" contains this:

"3a: to bring into intimate or incriminating connection "

This suggests the possible existence of the pattern "to bring something into connection with another something". But does it get used often by native speakers like:

"The evidence brought the suspect into connection with the burglary."

Yes, that is possible. You don't hear it used that way much, though. I think default is "connected him with/to the burglary".
