    18-1-709. Entrapment.
       
    The commission of acts which would otherwise constitute an offense is not criminal if
    the defendant engaged in the proscribed conduct because he was induced to do so by
    a law enforcement official or other person acting under his direction, seeking to
    obtain evidence for the purpose of prosecution, and the methods used to obtain that
    evidence were such as to create a substantial risk that the acts would be committed
    by a person who, but for such inducement, would not have conceived of or engaged in
    conduct of the sort induced. Merely affording a person an opportunity to commit an
    offense is not entrapment even though representations or inducements calculated to
    overcome the offender's fear of detection are used.
