Discharging Gun in Building carries different classes based on occupancy. Which option reflects the occupancy-based classification?

• A. Public Lewdness
• B. Discharging Gun in Building
• C. Eavesdropping
• D. Surveillance

Answer: (B)

The key idea is that some crimes are graded differently depending on whether the location is occupied. Discharging a gun in a building directly ties the act to an occupancy context, so the offense’s class can change based on whether people are inside. That makes this option the clear example of occupancy-based classification, since it explicitly involves an occupied space and the potential risk to occupants. The other terms describe offenses not defined by where people are sleeping or gathered in the same occupancy-focused way, so they don’t illustrate the occupancy-based grading concept.
