"Fan who broke into Steph Curry's home" isn't this a little sensational and misleading? An earlier story said hi buzzed the driveway gate and was let in. When he got to the door it was open and he entered. When he was asked to leave he left. Now that may amount to bad decisions, never enter a house unless invited in, but it seems to fall far short of "broke in". Unless there is something not reporter here or in the previous article then he should get a warning and move on. Curry should take a look at his security and talk to the nanny about locking the door and not buzzing in people.

This article is a travesty. This prosecution is a travesty.

The accused person rang the gate intercom and was buzzed in. The front door to the house was open. When he was asked to leave, he did.

This is not a break-in. No actual crime was committed.

Was the best possible judgment used? Perhaps not. This is not a crime.

I think the Curry family should ask for the charges to be dropped.

At best this is a trespass, most assuredly not a burglary. The trespass is even questionable given he was given access to the property when he rang for entry. He was given tacit approval to enter the property when the gate was opened for him. The charges should be dropped as they never should have been filed. And the Almanac should be ashamed for its inflammatory headline. There was NO break in.
