Guillaume Halard, « Réflexions sur la provocation policière », Revue de science criminelle et de droit pénal comparé, ID : 10670/1.9z94cf
Facing the ambiguities of the entrapment regime in French criminal law, we try to clarify its legal grounds and purposes before suggesting to abandon the doctrinal distinction between « provocation à la preuve » and « provocation à l'infraction » in ordrer to focus on one question exclusively : would the crime have been commited without the assistance of the police ? An in-depth review of the European Court of Human Right and the Cour de cassation's jurisprudences in the light of this question helps identify the appropriate criteria in order to answer it and those which sins by their imprecision.
