I know lots of people who like to look inside a new house as it is being built.

I don’t. Never in my life have I thought about committing the crime of trespassing to look inside a home under construction.
Well, there are lots of folks that do.
Nowadays, most partially constructed homes are locked up, but that was not always the case.
I’ve done it many times myself. You can learn a lot when you are able to see the bones of the house. You can tell good design from bad, good builders from sloppy builders, and good materials from bad ones. You can see problems before they happen, and tell if the home will be there for a hundred years or start to fall apart in just a few years.
You consider that a major crime?
Oh please. Me and the wife did it just last weekend while looking for new house.
Could just be professional curiosity or looking for work and didn’t really think anything about it, I worked a lot of construction at that age. He didn’t deserve to die for it.
