The term that refers to improper or illegal inducement to crime by enforcement agents is "entrapment." Entrapment occurs when law enforcement officers induce a person to commit a crime that they would not have otherwise engaged in, often to secure a conviction. This concept is often considered a defense in criminal law, as it raises questions about the legality and ethics of the agents' actions.
