Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sherry's actions describe burglary, which is defined as entering a building with the intention of committing a crime, usually theft. Robbery involves the use of force or threats to take property from someone, so it does not apply here. Larceny-theft refers to taking someone's property without their consent, but without using force or threats, so it is also not the correct answer. Burglary is a property crime, as it involves the theft of someone's belongings.
