What is the defense of entrapment?

0

An entrapment defense requires two elements: • Governmental inducement of the crime; and • A lack of predisposition on the part of the accused. Once the accused presents evidence showing inducement, the burden shifts to the prosecution to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the accused was predisposed to commit the crime.
