"“Yes it was wrong, yes it was illegal. But in my eyes, in that time of moment, I didn’t really think about that...What went through my mind was, ‘Okay, I’m never gonna get this opportunity again.’ So I went for it. And, well, this happened,”
People, please note that this is criminal trespass. While it is a non-violent crime, it can still screw your future.
We have about 2 acres of greenhouses surrounded by a 8ft fence that is marked with private property/no trespassing signs. The same kid kept breaking into the greenhouses, and other than making my dogs go bonkers, the kid caused no harm. But as my lawyer demanded that a police report be filed, and because we have several cameras in and around the green houses, the kid was an easy bust and prosecution. And he saw no crime with satisfying his curiosity about our greenhouses until it came time for his scholarship and job applications. The boy is royally screwed.
