I have a digital lock on my front door that I can unlock with a code from my smartphone from anywhere in the world with an app that connects to my home wifi. I can also set the lock to open the door automatically when a my phone sends aBluetoothcode to the phone.

Scenario 1: After dark, the police apprehend an individual sitting 75 feet away from my house. His smart phone has an unlimited data plan. When the police examine his phone, they find an app that tries codes to unlock the brand of digital lock on my door. The app was not opened when the police seized the phone. Wifi is turned "Off" but Bluetooth is turned on.

Scenario 2: The police apprehend an individual leaving my house late one night carrying my cell phone that he stole from me earlier in the day. My laptop that was on my desk is in his backpack. He says he did not "break in" because the door opened by itself.

  • Describe the features of the door lock, the cell phone app, and the interaction between them (wifi, Bluetooth, etc.) which are relevant to determining whether the illicit entry into my house, the attempted illicit entry into my house, or both, can be charged as burglary or attempted burglary.
