- A practice in which law enforcement agents or agents of the state coerce an LGBTQ+ person to commit a "crime" they would have otherwise been unlikely or unwilling to commit. Legal definitions of entrapment vary widely depending on the jurisdiction, but the term is often used colloquially to refer to police acting dishonestly or in bad faith, as well as policing focused on anticipating and inducing crime, rather than responding to reports of crime.
