I think both depend on which state.

Do you have the law that prevents the recording in UT? I only see the tresspassing law. Which by the way, would appear to be a class B misdemeanor if it was agricultural land or if it was a building (same for both your examples).

I wasn't trying to distinguish between land and building, mostly just that they are about recording and specifically animal operations.

I'm almost certain Utah is not the only state that specifically has laws around recording and specifically for animal operations that go beyond just generic trespass, but I don't have time right now to dive in.

Ok, thanks for the link. Based on that information it seems generic tresspass and the agricultural interference laws carry similar penalties depending on the circumstances. Both are either class A or class B misdemeanors.

but penalties stack :) and not all agricultural recording would fall under trespass - many times it is people who are employed there who are doing the recording

"but penalties stack :)"

Do they, or are they concurrent stemming from the same act in UT?

"not all agricultural recording would fall under trespass"

True. Your example was breaking into a Beyond Meat plant, comparing trespass to interference. In that case, the penalties are similar.

Not sure why you're putting these here. These are not relevant to discussion we're having. We're talking about the sentencing phase and the rules determining concurrent sentences.
