Well the classic "entrapment" defense is when cops actively go out and try to solicit someone to commit a crime with large sums of money..effectly talking them INTO doing something illegal....parking a car like any other car on a street to be stolen is hardley the same....even if its a desireable car to theives....even if its got cameras in it to prove it with remotely locking doors..to hold the criminals......my point being that there was no active enticement involved there...
