Dante agreed with Isaac to purchase heroin from Isaac in order to sell it on a city street corner. Unbeknownst to Dante, Isaac was an undercover police officer whose only purpose was to arrest distributors of drugs. Dante made a down payment for the heroin and agreed to pay the remainder after he sold it on the street. As soon as Isaac handed over the heroin, other officers moved in and arrested Dante. The jurisdiction follows the common law approach to conspiracy.Could Dante properly be convicted of conspiring to distribute drugs?
