Definición

  • Sting operations are inherently deceptive covert operations designed to develop evidence of criminal wrongdoing, identify offenders and offenses, apprehend and arrest offenders, and facilitate successful criminal prosecutions. Sting operations are frequently replete with controversy and ethical concerns over whether such operations reflect acceptable standards for right conduct and practices by law enforcement and other agents of the government.
