wah that one is damn contraverisal.. because its like baiting or
luring into a trap.. so i think some people say its illegal.. but i
guess its the lesser of two evils..
It's controversial as heck.... but apparently, just posting a
profile of a little girl online and waiting for predators to come
does not count as entrapment in the US. This is as long as the
prosecutor can argue that no reasonable person would take the bait
and come to the house.
Regardless of what the show says, though, I gotta say that
entrapment was involved. I'm willing to bet that in at least a few
cases, the predators had no intention of hooking up with some
little girl whatsoever. They got snared by the bait because it was
there.
That said, I found it strangely quite entertaining to see those
wannabe-predators appear on national TV and trying to weasel their
way out of the situation.
