Answer:

There are enough intent and action to commit a crime.  By burglarizing the store and moving some goods to the rear door, Baker and his co-travellers have established specific intent to commit larceny.

Specific intent requires planning before the time and the predisposition to commit the act.  They have even establish general intent by actually entering the store and cutting through the metal door with an acetylene torch.

Explanation:

Larceny is robbery.  The intent to commit a crime by Baker and his co-travellers is established by their actions at the crime scene.  They cannot be exonerated because they have not yet taken the goods away from the store.  But, it can be established that the intent exists merely by their presence at the crime scene at such an hour of the morning.

Why might it be better for all people to believe there is only one God who is like a person rather than a part of the natural world?
