let us take a look at a "hypothetical" scenario:

let's say a certain individual is driving down the road in the right lane.

as he is driving a woman in a tight black spandex track suit steps to the curb and waives her arms at him.

the driver stops the car and rolls down his window.

upon doing so, the lady in question asks him if he is looking to "party" while telling him it will cost him $20. to do so.

the driver laughs and says, "yeah ok"

the lady then informs him that to engage in said "party" he must turn down the alley ahead.

the driver rolls up his window and simply drives away.

the driver is subsequently pulled over several blocks later and arrested for solicitation.


That would be an interesting scenario to talk about at trial I would think.

I am almost sure that he would have to make that turn down the alley even do have a good "entrapment" case. The rest of that scenario is probably pretty close to how it did go down (no pun intended).

So basically, we're talking about "Dirty" cops again?

Who would've thunk it? :roll1:

Wow.

(sarcasm on) This is all his fault - he never should have rolled his window down (sarcasm off).

in the scenario above, by saying "yeah, right" once the lady mentions an act and price, the driver is engaging in solicitation, as the two necessary components are an act and an agreed upon price.

however, by not following the directions of the lady in where to go to engage in said act, it summarily shows that the response was not serious in nature.

Then why haven't the charges been dropped?

because the prosecution never dismisses the case in pretrial. in fact, most of the time cases are rule 29'ed meaning a judge determines there is insufficient evidence to sustain the charges.

additionally, the prosecution can merely contend that he did engage in solicitation with the intent to follow through, then changed his mind at the last second. that argument is enough to keep the case from getting dismissed at this point, but is far from enough to get a guilty verdict.

the fact that a plea has already been proposed by the prosecution is a clear indication that they don't feel good about the case. especially because the prosecution will need to make a public statement as to why a plea was granted without throwing the CPD under the bus.

What's the odds they get countersued for entrapment?
