2. ““ ‘ “A two-step test is used under the subjective approach: the first inquiry is whether or not the offense was induced by a government agent; and the second is whether or not the defendant was predisposed to commit the type of offense charged. A defendant is considered predisposed if he is ‘ready and willing to commit the crimes such as are charged in the indictment, whenever opportunity was afforded.’ If the accused is found to be predisposed, the defense of entrapment may not prevail. The predisposition test reflects an attempt to draw a line between ‘a trap for the unwary innocent and the trap for the unwary criminal.’ The emphasis under the subjective approach is clearly upon the defendant’s propensity to commit the offense rather than on the officer’s misconduct.” (Footnotes omitted.)’ “Davis v. State, 570 So.2d 791, 793 (Ala.Crim.App.1990). See also Garsed v. State, 50 Ala.App. 312 , 278 So.2d 761 (Cr.1973).””
