About This Video Replay:

This session is designed to give attendees an overview of Michigan entrapment doctrine with a particular focus on entrapment arguments in the “Skip the Games” sting cases that have proliferated under the aegis of the Genesee County Sheriff’s Department.


Session Take-Aways

  • At present, Michigan entrapment doctrine is muddled.
  • Current doctrine comprises two theories: impermissible inducement and reprehensible police conduct.
  • “Reprehensible” in this context is a term of art that asks whether police tactics were a proper use of governmental power.
  • There are viable entrapment arguments in Skip the Games sting cases.
  • Under Michigan law, entrapment issues are decided by the trial court, not the jury.
