What do you they need to find you guilty of burglary?

Answer 1

Every crime is defined by each individual state. The definition will contain each of the elements that need to be met in order to find you guilty. For example, the basic traditional definition of burglary is 1) breaking or entering, 2) at night, 3) in the home of another, 4) with the intent to commit a felony. (Of course, this definition has changed over time, and one can now burglarize cars, and it can be done during the day.)

For the jury to find you guilty, they must find that the evidence presented at trial leads them to believe, beyond a reasonable doubt, that your actions met each item.
