What is the name of your state? California.
I have stumbled across an old victorian 10+ story hotel that I would LOVE to get inside to take some pictures of, but the building has been condemned for 20 or so years. Every door into the building has a "No Trespassing" sign and a padlock. If I were to use bolt cutters to get the padlock off and go inside, what might the worst penalty be if I was caught? I have no intention of doing any sort of vandalism or stealing anything, etc. I would just like to take some pictures for my portfolio.
Oh, and I am currently only 17 years old but I'm close enough to my 18th birthday, might they try to purse charges as an adult?
