 Ala. Code § 13A-3-31   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The Criminal Code's original section on entrapment as a defense was patterned primarily after the Proposed Federal Code § 702, Michigan Revised Criminal Code § 640, New York Revised Penal Law § 35.40, and the Proposed Revision Texas Penal Code § 8.05.
As such, the section was deemed to differ from Alabama's case law on entrapment because it focused on whether the method of inducement created a substantial risk that the offense would be committed, and the actor's prior criminal record and predisposition to crime were not relevant and not admissible when considering entrapment.
In 1979 the legislature repealed the above codified "federal" view and reinstated the "present case law on entrapment," whereby the test is whether the criminal intent originated in the mind of the defendant.
