Arent the prositutution stings on "cops" illegal entrapment? plz give detailed answers; plz no lame 1 liners

Answer 1

This is how I understand it:

If the cop goes up to the car and says "Give me (monitary amount) in exchange for (sex act)" and arrests him/her when they agree to it, it's entrapment.

If the cop never actually states they'll trade sex for money, but waits for the potential customer to ask for it, it's not entrapment.

Answer 2

In order to entrap people they have to be co-erced into committing an illegal act when they did not intend to.

Prostitutes can not be subjected to entrapment laws as they already have intent to commit a crime simply by getting dressed and going out to solicit.

I personaly believe that the police should actually concetrate more on getting the Johns and then the girls will have to give it up(so to speak) and try and make an honest living.

Perhaps to if the USA spent less on stupid wars it could redirect the money into education and welfare programs that give these girls a future so they do not have to do these things to make a living.

Answer 3

No, in entrapment, the cop has to make someone who has no intent of breaking the law do so. In those COPS stings, the john comes up to the undercover cop and asks for sex. They are making the effort to break the law. The same is true when the prostitute gets in an undercover car. If an undercover cop went up to an average person minding their own business and tried to solicit sex for money, that would be more along the lines of entrapment.

Answer 4

No, if a guys sees a girl walking down the street and stops to chit chat with her, then he alone is throwing himself at her. If he goes up to her or even if she says "are you looking for a good time or a date", he can always say no, but continues to go further and once a deal of any kind of sex for money is made then, he is busted. If an undercover female office acting as a prositute walks up to you and your just standing there minding your own business, and she starts the conversation an doffers any kind of sex and lists her prices, and she is making all the effort to get you to comply, then this could be entrapment.

Answer 5

First of all, every state defines entrapment differantly, every states constitution is differant, all laws differ and are enforced through differant legal measures. I deal in legal and intelligence acquisition, basically an officer can do anything to extract info. Or anything that doesnt fall short of bribes, or make promises or free goods or services. Entrapment people use that word as frequently as prostitutes have sex. Go to your state legislative site look at the compiled laws, look at chapter index, find criminal code and or criminal procedure act or surf through the compiled laws and enter entrapment in the search engine

Answer 6

It's a trap, but it's not entrapment. It's the same as plain clothed detectives setting up drug stings.
Sex is not illegal, paying and or accepting payment for sex acts is illegal.
People who charge or pay for sex acts walk into the trap but they had a chance to say no thank you.
Prostitution is illegal and I don't think either hookers or clients will walk in and say I committed a crime today, so legal traps (audio and video recorded) are used to have proof of the illegal actions for court.

Answer 7

If you are just given the oppurtunity to commit a crime by undercover cops, but not actually coerced or persuaded by the police, I don't think that counts as entrapment.

Answer 8

No they're not. Someone offers a sex act for money, they're busted, except for some places in Nevada.

I used to bust them and then offer them a walk to make a drug buy, take the drugs to the lab, get an affidavit and use that to get a No-Knock Warrant and take down a dealer. Used to be a lot of fun.

Answer 9

No they are not. The ones that have been arrested on cops have exhibited their intent to break they law. You can be arrested for breaking the law even if you didn't get to the point of doing the actual deed of breaking that specific law.
