detection

Read a random definition: entire blood

A quick definition of detection:

Detection means finding something that was hidden, especially to solve a crime. It's like being a detective and looking for clues to figure out what happened. Sometimes police officers will test someone they suspect of doing something wrong to see if they really did it. This is called legitimate detection. But if police officers make someone do something wrong that they wouldn't have done on their own, that's called entrapment and it's not allowed.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Detection is the act of finding something that was hidden, especially to solve a crime.

For example, if the police find a hidden stash of drugs during a search, that is detection. Or if a security camera captures footage of a thief stealing from a store, that is also detection.

It's important to note that detection is different from entrapment. Detection is when law enforcement officers test a suspected person by offering them an opportunity to break the law in a way that is typical for that crime. Entrapment is when officers persuade someone to break the law when they wouldn't have done so otherwise.

Overall, detection is a crucial part of solving crimes and bringing justice to those who have been wronged.
