Apple Store Customers Targeted In Los Angeles Burglaries

Posted on: January 13, 2010 at 12:51 a.m.

Serious Los Angeles burglary crimes can carry years of jail time, heavy fines and even financial restitution, which is why anyone charged with such a crime needs a Los Angeles criminal defense attorney with a track record of success. A recent Los Angeles burglary case involved a specific set of stores.

The Orange County district attorney’s office has charged three people with Los Angeles burglary and grand theft in association with 28 cases which they believe are tied to a Los Angeles-area crime ring that allegedly targeted Apple Store customers through Los Angeles, Orange and Ventura counties. Those charged are said to have allegedly followed Apple Store customers that were thought to have computers that they would leave unattended in vehicles after leaving the stores. Once the customers left their cars unattended, that’s when the alleged burglars would make their moves. Manhattan Beach Police are also looking into 15 cases that are tied to the Village Mall Apple Store in Los Angeles. Authorities suspect that the crime ring is involved with these and other cases throughout Southern California.

Los Angeles burglary and grand theft charges in California are serious and can carry lengthy jail sentences in county or state prisons. These two offenses can either be considered misdemeanors or felonies, depending on the value or type of property that is stolen. There are, however, several defenses that can be used when facing a Los Angeles burglary and/or grand theft charges that can result in reduced or dropped sentences. Some of the most common defenses against grand theft charges include; consent, property, lack of intent and claim of right. A skilled and professional Los Angeles criminal defense team can maneuver through the court system in order to reduce your sentencing or have your charges dropped with an effective defense strategy.
