About the Law on Burglary in Idaho
In Idaho, burglary is defined as entering onto the property of another person with the intent to commit a theft or felony. This property can be anything — a store, a vehicle, an out building or attached garage. Burglary is commonly charged along with shoplifting. This is because prosecutors often argue that the defendants entered the store with the intent to steal.
The consequences of a conviction for burglary are harsh. In Idaho, burglary is considered a felony. If you are convicted, you could face up to ten years in the penitentiary. At Berglund Law, PLLC, we firmly believe that no one should go to the penitentiary for a crime as simple as shoplifting. When we take your case, we work diligently to pursue every angle — making sure that you receive the most effective criminal defense possible.
