Discussion #4

This week’s discussion consists of two questions pertaining to Chapter 7. Please answer both questions.

Question 1: The police can legally lie to a person in order to get a truthful confession. Is this fair? Why or why not?

Question 2: Please view the videos below and let me know why the police operations conducted in each video are not considered entrapment? Do you feel these types of undercover operations should be permitted? What makes these undercover operations lawful? When are they unlawful?
