I don't think that's quite what happened. You can't offer people, free gear and then arrest them for turning up by invitation. :? :lol: Me thinks, you've got the wrong end of the invite. :lol:

Arrest them on suspicion, finger print them and whala they've got a match. It's not hard.

Nidge, you are not seriously suggesting the police sent out invites to suspected burglars, offering free gear, and made arrests simply for turning up. :? #-o :lol:

The word is, police across the country have sent out personal invitations to all suspected burglars, p*edophiles and rapists. Asking that they make themselves available at warehouses full of free gear, defenceless children and vulnerable young females.

I got the above from Nidge2. Apparently this is how the police identify criminals. You simply turn up and your finger prints are taken. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


Oh and btw, it's not entrapment of any kind. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I know what you meant I was just having a laugh. You worded it like burglars were being invited to the queen's garden party. :lol: :lol:

So when the Police did an operation round here to lure suspected burglars into a warehouse with offers of free gear, was that classed as entrapment? The Police got a result.

The Police sent a plain letter out to all suspected burglars in offering them free gear if they turn up to this address. They turned up and were arrested on suspicion of burglary.

And as for the Ph driver, it was entrapment. I don't know if it fulfils the full legal definition but then again, Ph and taxi drivers are treated like second-class citizens anyway so I don't suppose it matters. :-|
