Every case is unique. Every defense is unique. Experienced criminal defense lawyers who regularly represent people in white collar cases consider all possible defenses, and always consider fashioning unique defenses.
Entrapment often presents a solid defense in cases in which law enforcement agents acting under-cover entice a person to commit crimes when the target has no pre-disposition to engage in criminal conduct “sting” operations by the government are often done in order to arrest as many people possible in order to justify the time and expense in making the case. Innocent people are often swallowed up in the governments net.
The United States Supreme Court has ruled that law enforcement agents may not originate a criminal design, “implant in the mind of an innocent person the disposition to commit the alleged offense and induce it’s commission in order that they may prosecute”.
