How did the cops "trick" you into incriminating yourself? If they put the original intent to commit a crime into your mind and then arrested you for that crime, that would be entrapment. If they just got you to confess to a crime that you committed of your own free will, then that's just good interrogation.

That was just good interview skills on the part of the officer. He made it easy for you to confess. And then you realized "ooops I've incriminated myself."
Next time remember your 5th Amendment Rights.

Tricking you into incriminating yourself is not entrapment. Inducing you with temptations too great to resist to do something you would not otherwise be inclined to do, now THAT can be entrapment.

Depending on how he does it? Justice. Good for him.
Why would we support a criminal in lying and hiding the truth? That would be stupid (kind of like doing a crime in the first place).

Good police work.
Unless there is a due process violation, or actual entrapment (meaning you wouldn't have committed the crime unless asked by the police), they did nothing wrong by tricking you.

Entrapment is when a cop makes you commit a crime. I think the correct word in this is "stupidity"
