A crime would be using the lock picks to get into someone else's property, in which case the problem is the act of breaking into someone else's stuff rather than the method.There is no circumstance under which simply carrying lock picks would reasonably result in any kind of criminal charge unless the person in question has actually been tied to and charged with another crime. The same is true of any other (normally) mundane item such as a screwdriver, a crow bar, a bat, a stick, a rock or a pocket knife.There is no circumstance in the United States where carrying lock picks, in and of itself, is illegal.
