If a structure is entered without the intent to commit a felony or a theft the offense classification would be Trespass, which is a Group B offenses and reported to SCIBRS only when an arrest is made. Example: a group of teenagers break into an abandoned house to have a beer party. They don’t intend to commit a felony and there is nothing to steal so the definition of burglary has not been met. But if someone breaks into a warehouse full of TV’s, even if they don’t manage to get anything, the intent is there.

1. General public - office building, library, court house 2. If a purse is taken from a shopping cart at Wal-Mart that would be theft from a building. Wal-Mart is open to the public and the item taken is not something for sale. Or if you have a party and invite some friends over and then the next morning discover some silver missing, probably taken by someone who had legal access to be in your house. 3. Offender has legal access - someone is eating lunches out of the refrigerator in the employees break room.

ROBBERYROBBERY

Presenter

Presentation Notes

1. Don’t forget to list the bank or convenience store as a victim. But you must have at least one human victim in a robbery 2. Example 1: robber goes into the bank and hands the teller a note that says, this is a stick-up, put money in the bag or I’ll shoot. Only the one teller and the bank are victims. Same robber goes into the bank waving a gun around and says this is a stick-up. Then all the tellers and customers as well as the bank become victims if they are in the vicinity of the robber.


Even though Robbery must have a victim

present, it is considered a Crime Against Property (as opposed to a Crime

Against Persons), because the Offender’s intent is

to obtain property.

Presentation Notes

1. Must have an offender present to report this offense, although in TN if a person is found with stolen property in their possession they are usually charged under TCA with theft of property. Example: If an agency finds an abandoned stolen vehicle, no SCIBRS report is generated, although the officer will fill out some type of report for his agency. The agency who reported the vehicle stolen will go into the original report and report the recovery date and value of the vehicle.


Property may only be reported to

SCIBRS as “Recovered” by the jurisdiction from

which it was originally reported stolen.
