if you enter an inhabited dwelling with the intent to commit a felony, even your own dwelling, you can be charged with burglary.
So if you came home with the intent to commit felony vandlaism, and it were actually vandalism to vandalize your own property (i don’t know a how that plays out in this situation under the law), you might be burglarizing your own place. weird, isn’t it.
Burglary varies state to state, in some states it has to be the dwelling of another person. It arises in domestic violence cases sometimes (guy comes home intending to kill his wife, doesn’t get to do it, charged with burglary; guy says, dude, how can it be burglary??? it was my own place. Lawyer says, umm, you can burglarize your own pad. That’s the law. Plus it’s a strike offense in california for purposes of the 3 strikes law.
Tracking sinks through ebay for a small time vandalism charge? Oy. I doubt the prosecution would go through the trouble. Sounds like a lot of work for a little case.
