How does the crime of burglary require entry into a specified structure with the intent to commit theft or any felony?

The crime of burglary requires "an entry into a specified structure with the intent to commit theft or any felony. [Citations.]" (People v. Tafoya (2007) 42 Cal.4th 147, 170-171.) Possession of stolen property by itself is insufficient to permit an inference that a defendant is guilty of any offense without some corroborating evidence. (People v. Moore (2011) 51 Cal.4th 1104, 1130.)

"CALJIC No. 2.15 is based on the long-standing rule allowing a jury to infer guilt of a theft-related crime from the fact that a defendant is found in possession of recently stolen property when such evidence is accompanied by slight corroboration of other inculpatory circumstances tending to show guilt. [Citation.]" (People v. Rogers (2013) 57 Cal.4th 296, 335.) A defendant's false statements regarding stolen property may be used to corroborate an inference of guilt, and a conviction for burglary can be supported from possession of recently stolen property along with a false explanation. (People v. McFarland (1962) 58 Cal.2d 748, 754.)
