There is a girl, very cute, could pass for 16 to 24 who does the cardboard sign, homeless begger thing at an on ramp to Interstate 25.

I don't believe she's not a cop.

Undercover cops lie all the time to maintain cover. It's not illegal.

"Entrapment" consists of persuading somebody to do something he doesn't want to do.

Posing as a pimp or a prostitute in order to catch someone looking for a prostitute is not entrapment.

That's an interesting situation. If a cop is working under cover trying to inflitrate the mafia, admitting to being a LEO could be hazardous to his health. But some vice cop pretending to be a pimp or a hooker in order to run a sting (ie, entrap), well, that seems like something else again.

I'd think the rule of thumb to follow would be, "never believe anything a cop tells you." Har! Especially if he denies being a cop! <G>
