Criminal Trespass- Class B Misdemeanor can be charged when there is entry of which aggravated circumstance?

• A. Entering a habitation, shelter center, a Superfund site, or a critical infrastructure facility while a deadly weapon is carried
• B. Entering only with permission
• C. Entering agricultural land with notice
• D. Entering a private mailbox

Answer: (C)

Aggravated criminal trespass happens when someone enters or remains on someone else’s property with an added factor that makes the offense more serious. Entering agricultural land with notice that entry is not allowed fits this elevated category because the landowner has clearly communicated restrictions and the trespasser knowingly ignores them. The presence of notice on agricultural land shows explicit awareness of the prohibition, which the statute treats as an aggravating circumstance, thus elevating the offense from a simple trespass to a more serious charge.

Entering with permission isn’t trespass at all, so it can’t be aggravated trepass. A private mailbox isn’t covered by this provision, and while carrying a deadly weapon in some trespass scenarios can aggravate elsewhere, the specific aggravated circumstance highlighted here is entering agricultural land with notice.
