He was on trial because he solicited a fee. If he'd told there would be no conspiracy. His act constituted a "finders fee" for criminal activity.
The irony here is that if the man actually was a front, he would have likely told the cop to fuck off as soon as the cop was willing to pay. Druggies don't have the cash to pay 'fees' to find dealers, most don't have the cash to pay for their drugs without stealing.
