I guess it’s okay in California to steal from a car if it’s unlocked. From the article:
“In California, visitors are at a disadvantage when attempting to prosecute people for auto burglaries. To secure a conviction, state law currently requires people to prove in court their door was locked.”

Yeah, apparently so. Unintended consequences from an overly-simplistic law?

Thieves don’t need to break windows when the doors are unlocked.

Talk about impossible. In short, I think prosecutors in general are terrified of going into court.
