A woman enters a home because she wants to steal all of the jewelry. While on her way there, she changes her mind about stealing the jewelry, but it starts pouring, so she decides to go in and trespass into the house anyway until it stops raining (adapted from Jackson v. State).

Yes, she did commit burglary, because she had an intent to steal.

Her charges would be burglary and trespassing.
