It’s never entrapment. That term needs to die, my guess is plenty of people get nailed for committing minor crimes they might not have otherwise because someone (a cop) convinced them it’s not a big deal. (No clue how many cases like Jesse Snodgrass[0] there are but it’s wild that scenarios like this can even happen, there is always a real crime to be solved yet resources were wasted on this) Along the same lines: “It’s never a hitman” (and now I suppose we can also add “You’re never buying a surface to air missile”) [0] https://www.rollingstone.com/feature/the-entrapment-of-jesse-snodgrass-116008/amp/ https://www.rollingstone.com/feature/the-entrapment-of-jesse...
