Alice and Bob agree to burglarize a jewelry store. Alice plans to disable the alarm system, while Bob intends to break the window and take the jewelry. Before they carry out their plan, law enforcement apprehends them. Which inchoate offense have Alice and Bob most likely committed?
Alice and Bob have entered into an agreement to commit burglary, satisfying the elements of conspiracy. They have mutually agreed to engage in criminal activity and have taken steps toward its execution. Although they have not completed the burglary, their agreement and intent fulfill the requirements for conspiracy. Attempt requires a more direct action towards committing the crime, and solicitation involves urging someone else to commit a crime, neither of which accurately describe their actions.
