Bait Cars

[Abu 'Abdullaah]

Cops set up a car - unlocked with keys in the ignition in a 'high crime' area to entice someone to steal it.

Someone inevitably steals the car.

Cops then arrest and charge the thief.

Re: Bait Cars

Some have expressed concern that this 'creates' crime and may be considered entrapment.

Really, you think so?

Looks like the law has come to the degree where they pull traps.

Doing that in Sweden would be illegal, making someone commit a crime by for example having a attraction.

Re: Bait Cars

Just found out it's a TV show.

This is actually a very sick concept.

Re: Bait Cars

If we work on the premise that integrity of a person must remain intact at all times; then such a set up shouldn't pose any problems aside to those who fall for it...

given an opportunity...many would do many things they perhaps would not normally ... not neccessarily a crook by trade either....

The issue is drawing the line...there is no line to draw as far as popo are concerned.

Re: Bait Cars

That's why it's entrapment.

When I watched the first video I thought it was some kind of prank but people actually get charged.

I think it's kinda funny, without it we'd miss out on so many cops episodes.

new territory for you? ref to whatever it is ur watching i mean

Search YouTube for 'Bait Car'. It ran for 5 series apparently.

Everyone knows cops are dirty with how they entrap people with drugs and terrorism charges. Never seen it done so blatantly before and it was a bit of an eye-opener.

It was on tv, don't even know the name of the show. Could very well be mistaken though.
