The strictest definition of entrapment is when an LEO orders you to do something illegal; because you have to obey an order. Like if a traffic cop waves you through the intersection against a light to clear the road, they cannot then issue you a ticket.

It depends a lot on what the cops actually said to this kid, but I think there's a good chance to make that case.

since cops can kill with no repercussions "orders" should have a broad interpretation

Sounds like it, but it's Australia, and from what I know about Australian law, entrapment isn't really a thing. Australian pigs can just tell you to commit a crime, and then arrest you for committing that crime.

Just another reminder that All Cops Are Bastards.

I‘m not well versed in the law but others said so too.

Only entrapment if you have money. If you're poor this is just referred to as 'life'.
