Yes. Rhode Island is one of the few remaining states that preserves the common-law nighttime requirement for full burglary. If the alleged entry happened in daylight, the state cannot prove burglary - it can only charge the lesser offense of breaking and entering. "Nighttime" is traditionally defined as the period after sunset and before sunrise when a person's face cannot be identified by natural light. We routinely use National Weather Service sunrise and sunset records, surveillance timestamps, cell-tower data, and witness statements to pin down the exact time of the alleged entry. If we can show the entry happened even a few minutes before sunset, the burglary count collapses.
