I suspect most times they'll let you off with a warning. Sometimes they'll give you a trespassing ticket (~$60-$100 typically). If they charge you with B&E, a rareity I think, you're into felony range and the fine is the least of your worries.

Have fun!

Go draining! You never get caught at that.

It seemed like a good idea at the time...

Not true. I've had more run-ins with cops and people who have threatened to call them on me than I have while exploring buildings. If you're walking around a city peering down into manholes with a flashlight in the middle of the night, then you're bound to look suspicious to anyone who notices. It gets worse if you're entering or exiting via a manhole in busy areas. You better hope a cop doesn't happen to be driving by when doing that. You'll probably have some explaining to do.

Yeah. That is true, but I tend to only enter/exit by outlets and inlets (with a couple exceptions) I have however almost run into workers in a drain. That would be getting caught red-handed, wouldn't it.

i might not make it back out again! my town has a bunch of crazies in it, and there are probably a whole army of them in the drains.

theres this building here in town that i am so dying to get into, but i just dont know how to get ahold of the owner.. or who the owner even is. regardless, i dont think they would let me in there to take pics.. and would call the police on me if they caught me.

Ahold of the owner?
Just do it. Find an area with the least traffic and enter.

Don't forget, in Canada it's not a felony to get caught trespassing, unless you broke in to get in. It's similar to a speeding ticket, around $75.

However in the U.S. it's a little different and varies from state to state on weather you spend a little amount of time in jail or not. In some states trespassing can get you a large fine and few months.

A lot of times it is going to be depend on if the owner of the building wants to prosecute or not as well. Some building owners are very stringent on pressing charges especially if the building has a lot of trespassing activity in it. Another factor would be if it is government property or private.

Look up your state laws and know about the property upon which you are trespassing.
There is no standard answer - it is, honestly, case by case.
Know your rights and know the law before you go out doing anything illegal.
You can use the SEARCH function to find at least 2 dozen threads on this very topic that discuss the matter ad nauseum.

Dont get caught, its that easy....

But if you DO get caught, request to speak to the owner, Ask them if you can settle it out of court, ect.

Nahhh. If there rly Crazy they will just make some superdeadly traps down there. And when yur in TenThousand little Ziplock bags there ish normally no charge. But if yu can Avoid the Death traps, And are not seen entering the Drains, they are fairly straightforward... and tons of fun. And rly no cop has Xray vision. They don't see yu, No trouble.
