Thieves usually get charged with theft. That's OK & there should be no exception to it, just because you're placing your butt on a golden toilet.
That said, it's stunning to me, that theft isn't among the charges brought against Donald J. Trump, who has a more than questionable understanding of "my property" & "not my property", mildly spoken.
For clarification: He did not just borrow 64 boxes of federal documents for a week or so. And he refused to return the loot to NARA.
18 U.S.C. § 641:
"Whoever embezzles, steals, purloins, or knowingly converts to his use or the use of another, or without authority, sells, conveys or disposes of any record, voucher, money, or thing of value of the United States or of any department or agency thereof, or any property made or being made under contract for the United States or any department or agency thereof; or
Whoever receives, conceals, or retains the same with intent to convert it to his use or gain, knowing it to have been embezzled, stolen, purloined or converted--
Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; but if the value of such property in the aggregate, combining amounts from all the counts for which the defendant is convicted in a single case, does not exceed the sum of $1,000, he shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both."
