Around my way and growing up, corner store owners, etc. sold tons of bootleg and stolen goods daily. Crackheads and thieves would frequent these stores often selling whatever they stole from that day and these guys would buy them quick and resell for whatever profit they could make. If someone comes up to you saying they have stolen goods or have some huge background story, then you should know better.

Came back 10 mins later and arrested him. They are doing this to regular people, someone who perhaps never did something immoral in their lives. BTW the barbershop got in no trouble at all. It's an attempt to set examples for other people. PSN / GAMERTAG WHATSYOURPOISON

Will def be on the lookout next time I buy something hot from a stranger who tells me they stole it up front. T E A M Y A N K E E S T E A M N E W Y O R K K N I C K S

If they are saying the items are stolen then how is it entrapment?

Through an interpreter, the clerk admitted that he tried to buy an iPhone and even negotiated the price. The only problem was that he didn't know the salesman was an undercover officer. The man swore he didn't know the phone was supposedly stolen, but NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly said the undercover cops made it clear they had stolen goods for sale for deals that were too good to be true: iPads and iPhones for less than $200. Kelly said undercover officers tried to make 600 sales; 141 people took the bait and were arrested after cops said money was exchanged: 42 in Brooklyn, 41 in Manhattan, 31 in the Bronx, 21 in Queens, and six on Staten Island. The NYPD conducted the sting at convenience stores, delis, newsstands, and even barber shops. It was a two-part sting that followed decoy operations in the subways to the thieves that steal electronics from straphangers. Both operations were a direct result of a recent increase in the theft of personal electronic devices from people on the city's transit system. Kelly said the shops were targeted because they are known to deal in stolen property. But the clerk swore he wasn't going to sell it in the store. Instead he thought he had an early Christmas gift.

I would much rather the NYPD use their resources to catch real criminals. Try catching people that are ACTUALLY stealing ipads, ipods, and smart phones on the train or off the truck than Joe Schmoe being entrapped in a come up too good to pass right around the holidays. Read the article you yourself posted OP The police targeted the thieves first, then pursued the people who typically buy from them. It's pretty simple, if a guy you don't know just comes up to you admitting that he has stolen goods for sale, you probably don't want to accept. The cop has to admit the items are stolen in order to arrest you, most thieves aren't going to put their business out there like that, they are just going to ask if you want to cop or not. And I am no conspiracy theorist but lets not kid ourselves. We know damb well who they were targeting. Yeah, the shop owners known/long suspected for selling hot items *Quote:* "Dudes jihaded the whip."
