I don’t see how this is entrapment. You must have had the experience numerous times of going to a mall and seeing merchandise stacked up outside the store or hung on racks. Anyone could just pick up something and walk away without paying for it, and if they do take it, they weren’t entrapped. On any given day, many people are victims of crimes when they leave something valuable in their vehicle, and someone just reaches in and removes it, and it isn't entrapment.

The difference being that in those cases, it wasn't the police trying to entice a passerby into committing a crime of opportunity.
