To catch a predator

[2MinsToPost]

No way shape or form that show, Predator, is real. Lawsuit city, throw out in court city, fake reactions city. A waste of valuable tv space is all it is. In my opinion, it is disrespectful to the fine folks who take child predators seriously. They should be ashamed of themself, nbc, for airing this made for tv crap.

You need to brush up on your legal knowledge...here

ENTRAPMENT - A person is 'entrapped' when he is induced or persuaded by law enforcement officers or their agents to commit a crime that he had no previous intent to commit; and the law as a matter of policy forbids conviction in such a case.

However, there is no entrapment where a person is ready and willing to break the law and the Government agents merely provide what appears to be a favorable opportunity for the person to commit the crime. For example, it is not entrapment for a Government agent to pretend to be someone else and to offer, either directly or through an informer or other decoy, to engage in an unlawful transaction with the person. So, a person would not be a victim of entrapment if the person was ready, willing and able to commit the crime charged in the indictment whenever opportunity was afforded, and that Government officers or their agents did no more than offer an opportunity.

On the other hand, if the evidence leaves a reasonable doubt whether the person had any intent to commit the crime except for inducement or persuasion on the part of some Government officer or agent, then the person is not guilty.

In slightly different words: Even though someone may have [sold drugs], as charged by the government, if it was the result of entrapment then he is not guilty. Government agents entrapped him if three things occurred:

- First, the idea for committing the crime came from the government agents and not from the person accused of the crime.

- Second, the government agents then persuaded or talked the person into committing the crime. Simply giving him the opportunity to commit the crime is not the same as persuading him to commit the crime.

- And third, the person was not ready and willing to commit the crime before the government agents spoke with him.

On the issue of entrapment the government must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant was not entrapped by government agents.

Carrie Underwood is more talented.

I 2nd that! the black chicks have had the best voices throughout the show but they have been ugly, with the exception of 5 id say.

Kelly Clarkson is the total package, I love her.

But Katharine McPhee is my destiny

She is! Haha

Nothing wrong with Kelly Clarkson, but her voice is very inconsistent. I've heard Carrie live a couple of times and she impressed me.

Carrie impresses me in a lot of ways.

You cant say one is better or more talented. Totally different styles. Both very good and the only 2 who deserved to win on that show.

Kelly certainly has talent, but in regards to natural RAW talent, Carrie has her beat very easily IMO. And I agree on those two being the only deserving winners. Clay Aiken deserved to win over Ruben and Fantasia is/was a joke.

Carrie Underwood needs sex badly
