Explanation

Enticement deals with someone that is breaking the law. Entrapment encourages someone to commit a crime that the individual may or many have had no intention of committing. Enticement is not necessarily illegal but does raise ethical arguments and may not be admissible in court. Enticement lures someone toward some evidence (a honeypot would be a great example) after that individual has already committed a crime. Entrapment is when you persuade someone to commit a crime when the person otherwise had no intention to commit a crime. Entrapment is committed by a law enforcement player where you get tricked into committing a crime for which you woud later on get arrested without knowing you rare committing such a scrime. It is illegal and unethical as well. All other choices were not applicable and only detractors.
