they always entrap people, cops are the worst
they sell people drugs then arrest them, thats sick
drug addicition is a sickness and they just take advantage of people by arresting them and extorting them with probation and fines, or imprison people, that just a money racket
the real criminals run the justice system
not all illnesses are contagious,
your comment does not hold water
it can be a mental illness also

The obvious law enforcement officers have answered this - entrapment is illegal. The protitution example several cited is absolutely not entrapment, those propositioned can say no.
I only typed on this thread because of the comment that drug addiction is a sickness. Really? You mean anyone can catch it from someone else? You can walk down the street and catch drug addiction?
I don't want to digress from the point of the thread.

Police cannot use entrapment. Entrapment is the act of making someone commit a crime they have not previously considered for the purpose of prosecution.
So there are no examples.

Entrapment is where the police cause (induce) someone to commit a crime that they previous would not have committed.
If someone wants to commit the crime anyway, and the police just provide the opportunity (but not motive) then that is not entrapment.
If someone does not want to commit a crime, and the police convince, cajole, coerce or other get the person to do something that (left on their own) they would not have done, that is entrapment.

Using an unmarked car to pull in front of you, slow down to 3 or 4 miles per hour below the speed limit. When you pass them, a second car pulls you over for speeding.
Also, police are not supposed to sit outside of clubs waiting to pull over DWI's, but that one is hard to prove.
And, in a situation of soliciting, if the cop mentions money first, that's entrapment.

If you've told the truth to the police about something, its probably because they either tricked, manipulated, scared, made a deal with, deceived, or fooled you into doing it. None of those qualify as entrapment.

I remember when I was a kid, we lived on a dead end street. Several fire trucks came down to the end one day with lights and sirens on. It's illegal to follow emergency vehicles. The police blocked the exit of the street with three cars and then cited everyone they trapped, about 4 cars as I remember it. That was a long time ago - about 1968.

coragryph is the only person that has it right.
Entrapment means that you are coerced into doing something that you normally would not do.
When a female officer poses as a prostitute, the men who solicit her ask her for sex and offer her money. They are in an area known for prostitution and have every intent of paying for sex.

when a female cops is posing as a hooker...and she asks the guy if he wants to have sex for money is entrapment....in order to be not entrapment, the man has to proposition her without her suggesting it.

coragryph is the only one to get this right.
Police are not permitted to use entrapment.
