i need help here Assume that the men attempted to break into the house but discovered they couldn’t pick the lock. What inchoate offense or other crime has each person committed? Explain your reasoning.

I would go with "Attempted Breaking and Entering."

Explanation:

Even though the men didn't actually get inside the house and steal anything, they still tried to get inside the house. They didn't use any physical force such as kicking down the door or smashing a window, but they can still get tried for something like "Unlawful Entry-No Force" which could fall under simply opening a window or unlocked door. If their intention was burglary, which most likely it was, they can be charged for that or even simply being on the property without permission/authorization.
