Couldnt you make a citizens arrest and hold them til the police showed up, my brother is a private investigator so video surveillance is nothing new to us, we may try it!!!

the only issue with rexy's is as soon as you want to go much quicker than standard, you need to invest big dollars in the gearbox.. just a bit of a shame

How do u figure its entrapment? Because the police own the car? lol.. Some wank steals a car, regardless of which car or who owns the car it doesnt matter what the reasons are, they get busted! Same as cops going undercover as drug dealers.. the drug dealers cant say ohhhh but I didnt know ur a cop, if I did.. I wouldnt of done drugs!!

no... its.. not

Morgz I'm right and you know it ... en�trap (ěn-trāp') Pronunciation Key tr.v. en�trapped, en�trap�ping, en�traps 1. To catch in or as if in a trap. 2. 1. To lure into danger, difficulty, or a compromising situation. See Synonyms at catch. 2. To lure into performing a previously or otherwise uncontemplated illegal act. en�trap�ment /ɛnˈtr�pmənt/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[en-trap-muhnt] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation –noun 1. the luring by a law-enforcement agent of a person into committing a crime. 2. an act or process of entrapping. 3. a state of being entrapped.

Definition: [noun] a defense that claims the defendant would not have broken the law if not tricked into doing it by law enforcement officials There is no trickery involved in parking a car somewhere.. and an opportunistic theif will sieze the moment regardless... its not entrapment, nice try.. dumbass LOL @ lure.. that would imply any car theif taking ANY car would be entrapment, simply coz the car was there for the taking. your simply repeating what Im saying.

Morgz - correct, however the Question was not relating to Police, the question was asked in regards to a individual. The intent is defined by the fact they have parked the car there for the sole purpose of having someone break into it / try to steal it. Therefore there is intent and therefore it is entrapment.

1. the luring by a law-enforcement agent of a person into committing a crime = entrapment If an individual does it its not entrapment because they are not doing it with intent to prosecute the person committing the crime.. which is obvious as they cant.

Entrapment is not limited to a law enforcement agency. In the situation of this original question, it is still entrapment.

I'll give u entrapment b1tch.. lol. Keep digging man, u'll find something to prove ur right Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

its undercover surveillance, you have the right to leave your property anywhere you like with out it being disturbed. No one is forcing the thieves to go and try break into your car, I think you would have a hard time proving entrapment.

Nice way to waste your time lol...
