The subjective entrapment test focuses on the defendants individual characteristics more than on law enforcements behavior. If the facts indicate that the defendant is predisposed to commit the crime without law enforcement pressure, the defendant will not prevail on the defense.
The legal standard for entrapment requires reasonable suspicion in all cases in which police provide the accused with an opportunity to commit a crime. Without this requirement, the police could target anyone at random to tempt and coax them into committing a crime they would not have otherwise engaged in.
The question of entrapment is considered only after there has been a finding of guilt. If, after finding the accused guilty, the court determines that the accused was entrapped, the court enters a judicial stay of proceedings. That is similar to an acquittal.
Justification defenses include Necessity,Defense of others, Defense of property, Law Enforcement Defense, Consent. Excuse defenses include Duress, Entrapment, Ignorance of the Law, Diminished Capacity Defense, Provocation, Insanity Defense, and Infancy Defense.
Entrapment occurs when law enforcement personnel: Pressure an Individual Into Committing a Crime. Threaten Someone Into Committing a Crime. Make False Promises. Drug Crimes: An Example of Entrapment. Prostitution: An Example of Entrapment.

Subjective: An entrapment defense is not as likely to be successful under a subjective standard.
There is no defence of entrapment in English law but it is considered to be an abuse of the process of the court for state agents to lure a person into committing illegal acts and then seek to prosecute him for doing so.
Justification can be a defense in a prosecution for a criminal offense. When an act is justified, a person is not criminally liable even though their act would otherwise constitute an offense. For example, to intentionally commit a homicide would be considered murder.
