Entrapment is the act of a law enforcement agent in inducing a person to commit an offence which the person would not have, or was unlikely to have, otherwise committed.

The above quoted from Wikipedia. Recently an online sex offender from Sweden was caught in USA by a policewoman posing as a 15 year old girl, encouraging the man into committing a criminal act. Although this man as been evidencelessly suspected a long time, he has not been caught in Sweden due to the fact that entrapment is illegal here. The concept is simple and works well, but there's the risk of getting the wrong person, and thus catching someone who otherwise would not have committed the act. I, personally, find it works well enough to be a valid practice in Sweden as well.
