Burglary Penalties in Rhode Island
In Rhode Island, burglary is defined as the unlawful entry into a structure with an intention to commit a crime. According to Rhode Island Code § 11-8-1, any individual who commits burglary shall be imprisoned for life or for any term no less than five years. However, burglary is divided into multiple categories with various prison sentences based on the circumstances of the offense.
Burglary of a dwelling (home invasion):
- First offense – Prison sentence between two and 10 years and/or a fine of up to $10,000.
- Second or subsequent offense – Prison sentence between four and 15 years and/or a fine of up to $10,000.
In your defense, Tom can work to undermine the prosecution’s case against you. For instance, the intent to commit a crime is a key component of a burglary charge, which can be quite difficult to establish. You may have had no intent whatsoever to commit a crime, and if this can be established, your burglary charge may be dropped or reduced.
