9-4. Defenses to Criminal Liability. George Castro told
Ambrosio Medrano that a bribe to a certain corrupt Los
Angeles County official would buy a contract with the county
hospitals. To share in the deal, Medrano recruited Gustavo
Buenrostro. In turn, Buenrostro contacted his friend James
Barta, the owner of Sav-Rx, which provides prescription ben-
efit
management services. Barta was asked to pay a "finder's
fee" to Castro. He did not pay, even after frequent e-mails and
calls with deadlines and ultimatums delivered over a period
of months. Eventually, Barta wrote Castro a Sav-Rx check
for $6,500, saying that it was to help his friend Buenrostro.
Castro was an FBI agent, and the county official and contract
were fictional. Barta was charged with conspiracy to commit
bribery. At trial, the government conceded that Barta was not
predisposed to commit the crime. Could he be absolved of the
charge on a defense of entrapment? Explain. (United States
v. Barta, 776 F.3d 931 (7th Cir. 2015)] (See Defenses to Criminal
Liability.)
