What Is A Burglary Charge?
Greetings to all;
A burglary crime is a crime committed when a person breaks into, enters unlawfully, or forcefully enters a dwelling, vehicle or other habitat maintained or own by another person. If you break into a home, that's a burglary. If you break into a vehicle, mobile home, storage facility, garage, etc, that's burglary. It doesn't matter if someone is home or not. The crime is committed because you unlawfully placed yourself in a place you are not authorized to be in.
Suppose the owner gave you permission to enter the dwelling but upon arriving, you had to use force to enter the dwelling? If the owner concurs, it's not a burglary. If the owner had given you permission, but later informs the police that he did not give it, it's a burglary charge. Why did I bring this odd example into play? I knew of a person that was set up like this. This is why you should be very careful taking someone's word about entering anyplace without permission.
Personally for me, if their not family or very good friends, I'm not going in. I rather wait until they arrive or come with me. This is a very old vindictive game played by many people in the 30's and 40's. You simply set your enemy up. It will work today as well as back then.
Understand that the law is based on it's written meaning. A District Attorney could place you in jail for a very long time based on the meaning and wording of the law, not on your intent.
Be careful where you go, what you do, and who you listen to. It's a very dangerous world out there!
