The crime of Burglary requires specific intent to commit a crime.  This is an element which must be proven.  While voluntary intoxication is not normally a defense, it may be possible to show that you did not have the required intent as a result of the effect of your medications and the alcohol.  In the past, I have successfully used experts in cases of this type.

• 2C:18-2a(1) Burglary is a 3rd degree offense. The mental state required for this crime is
• with purpose. This means that it must have been your conscious object to have broken into
• the vehicle. Severe intoxication is a possible defense when this mental element is required
• by a particular crime. (See 2C:2-8.) An expert may be required to testify as to the effect of
• mixing alcohol with your medications. One thing further, in light of the fact that this was a
• vehicle (?) Burglary, if you have no criminal record here or in any other state, you might want
• to apply for Pretrial Intervention (PTI). The only thing they can do is say "No." Their decision
• can then be appealed to the judge.
