Ce nu mi-e clar in legatura cu povestea copiilor vanduti

Am scris despre povestea copiilor vanduti pentru 12.000 de euro, insistand ca am unele rezerve. Ideea este ca, in acest caz, echipa de la Antena 1 a actionat ca “agent provocator”. Parintii au fost tentati cu mii de euro sa comita un gest ilegal, caz in care, dupa parerea mea, o parte din vina cade si pe umerii celor care au provocat incidentul. Pentru complicitate.

Echipa TV a actionat ca un “agent provocator”:

Traditionally, an agent provocateur (plural: agents provocateurs, French for “inciting agent”) is a person employed by the police or other entity to act undercover to entice or provoke another person to commit an illegal act. More generally, the term may refer to a person or group that seeks to discredit or harm another by provoking them to commit a wrong or rash action. Sursa

Ideea de agent provocator ne duce la alta, cea de Entrapment :

Entrapment is the act of a law enforcement agent inducing a person to commit an offense which the person would otherwise have been unlikely to commit.[1] In many jurisdictions, entrapment is a possible defense against criminal guilt. Sursa

Pe scurt, ce vreau sa spun: maniera in care s-a actionat nu mi se pare etica. E foarte usor sa-l convingi pe un amarat sa comita o ilegalitate. Desigur, si parintii au partea lor de vina, insa, deocamdata nu stim toata povestea. Insa, a-i judecat exclusiv pe parinti si a-i declara eroi pe cei din echipa TV care au provocat acest scandal nu mi se pare corect.

Nu cunosc ce spune legea romaneasca in acest cazuri; m-am orientat mai mult dupa jurisprudenta saxona, pentru ca a fost mai usor sa gasesc informatii.

Cazurile de “entrapment” sunt dificile, de aceea exista mai multe abordari:

In SUA exista posibilitatea construirii unei aparari pe baza faptului ca actiunile ilegale au fost comise la indemnul unor persoane interesate – fortele de ordine de exemplu.

In Canada:

The question of entrapment is only considered after there has been a finding of guilt. If, after finding the accused guilty, the court determines that the accused was entrapped, the court will enter a judicial stay of proceedings. In effect, this is similar to an acquittal.

Anglia:

A police officer encourages a person to commit a crime so that the officer can have him prosecuted for that crime.[…] If a person has committed an offense because of entrapment, the Court may stay the proceedings under its inherent jurisdiction to prevent abuses of process (which prevents the case going ahead) or exclude evidence under section 78 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984. The grant of a stay is normally the most appropriate response.

Germania:

In German law, it is normally forbidden (§ 26 StGB) to induce or persuade someone to commit a crime, or to attempt to do so (§ 30 StGB, in German).
