This definitely reeks of entrapment, but I wasn't a big fan of the article. This bit, in particular, seems a bit of a cop out:

O.K., he thought, I get it. At this point J plunged in, inventing a sexual encounter with her and the girls, giving heather exactly what he thought she was after. The details are graphic and sickening, and cannot be printed.

I can understand not wanting to spell out all the grisly details of the transcript verbatim, but he left in plenty of other explicit stuff that reflects poorly on the sting operative—it just seems like his omitting some of the accused's harsher language was done with the motive of biasing the reader in his (the accused's) favor. I dunno, it felt a little too manipulative to me.

Still, what other magazines are willing to be labeled pro-molestation?

The brief description of legal thought on entrapment was interesting, at any rate.
