Here, trespass is actually quite complex statutorily with common law on top, and this stems in part from it being both a criminal and civil matter with laws in about six or seven acts governing it.

As memory serves, we require a fault element of intent for the criminal form - not actually called trespassing under the statute - but negligent or reckless conduct for the tortious form. This guide is really intended more for the simplified legal RP scene than for my jurisdiction, so it lacks a lot of the nuance.
