      The strictest definition of entrapment is when an LEO orders you to do something illegal; because you have to obey an order. Like if a traffic cop waves you through the intersection against a light to clear the road, they cannot then issue you a ticket.

      It depends a lot on what the cops actually said to this kid, but I think there’s a good chance to make that case.
