I was arrested for burglary, but didn’t steal anything.

  • In New Jersey, a burglary is entering somewhere where you are not licensed or privileged to be with the intent to commit a crime once you are inside.
  • It does not have to be a crime with intent or action taken to steal something.
  • It could be any number of things, as long as there was an intent to commit some crime when you went into a place where you were not supposed to be.
