    It’s not entrapment because she wasn’t convinced, coerced or forced by law enforcement to try and hire a hitman from that site; she did so entirely willingly and without intervention from law enforcement.

    To use the entrapment defence, the defendant has to prove law enforcement had a hand in getting them to do something they otherwise wouldn’t have done.
