Stealing packages now a felony

Man in handcuffs

One of the 820 new state laws taking effect today makes so-called porch pirating a felony. That’s when someone steals a package left on your front porch. In the past, that was a misdemeanor, but the new state law means you could spend up to 10 years in prison and be fined 10 thousand dollars for doing that.
