Description
Narcotics ? Illegal Possession ? Decoys and Detectives ? Entrapment of Defendant ? What Does not Constitute. Criminal Law ? Decoys ? Employment Unobjectionable, When. 1. It is not a defense to prosecution for crime (illegal possession of opium) that a decoy furnished an opportunity for its commission, provided the decoy did not lure the defendant, who would not otherwise have been likely to break the law, into committing the act for which he was on trial. Same ? Narcotics ? Entrapment of Defendant by Decoys ? Evidence ? Insufficiency. 2. Evidence in a prosecution for unlawfully possessing narcotics reviewed, and held to show that there was not any entrapment of the defendant into committing the offense by a decoy who had reasonable ground to suspect that defendant was engaged in making unlawful sales of opium and who did no more than make an offer to buy and furnished the money fixed as the price by defendant with which to procure it; held further, that the trial court erred in directing a verdict in favor of defendant on the ground that there was not sufficient evidence to warrant the submission of the case to the jury.
