Originally posted by TurdBut no one forced the subject to steal the bike.
Is it entrapment merely because of the actor they used to drop off the bike? Or just the fact that the situation being presented wasn't a real one?
But to me, if the police influence someone into committing to a crime which they otherwise wouldn't have done, that is entrapment.
In the bike situation, it's hard to say. I'd lean toward not entrapment, but it's possible to think of situations in which it would be.

Originally posted by TurdI remember on some episodes of COPS they would purposely leave a nice high quality bike in some location known to have a lot of thieves and then bust their **** when someone stole it.
They have a switch to the car's engine and they shut it off and lock the doors, kind of funny

With that being said...there are guys who are looking specifically for under-aged sex partners on line and justice is served in this case...but there probably exists as well some guy who didn't have this on his mind and would have never acted on it had it not been played up to him.Last edited by jaded; 10-22-2012, 12:11 AM.

It is a good argument for entrapment when you entice someone to do something that they might not otherwise do if you were not baiting them (which is how the show operates)...and you could argue that everyone has a breaking point. But they have structured the law so that even though no victim actual exists except in the imagination of the perpetrator..."having the intention to have sex with a minor is illegal"...even if that minor does not exist...which gives the authorities the right to convict...and although minors need to be protected I'm not not sure this is really right.

But good analysis.

As far as catching sexual predators that target underage girls, I say, show no mercy, do whatever you have to do to catch as many as you can.
