I know zilch about hypnosis. I’ve read that a person under hypnosis can not be made to do anything which they would refuse to do while not under hypnosis, such as commit a crime, etc.
Is that true.

“Is that true?”

That is not true. There are different techniques for hypnotizing difficult subjects who say they cannot be hypnotized. But anyone can be hypnotized.

I will say that it is much easier to hypnotize someone who is willing.

Once hypnotized, the depth of the person determines their willingness to follow your suggestions. These suggestions can be followed, even in post hypnotic state.
