Entrapment
ORS > Procedural Statutes > General Criminal Matters > 161.275
(1) the commission of acts which would otherwise constitute an offense is not criminal if the actor engaged in the conduct because they were induced to do so by a law enforcement official, or by a person acting in cooperation with a law enforcement official, for the purpose of obtaining evidence to be used against the actor in a criminal prosecution
(2) as used in this section, induced means that the actor did not contemplate & would not otherwise have engaged in the proscribed conduct. Merely affording the actor an opportunity to commit an offense doesn't constitute entrapment
