The purchasing of the drugs is often not a victimless crime. That part is likely the motive for breaking into the cars. This is why successful people always get a slap on the wrist for drug charges. It is recognized that there is no victim when they buy or use the drugs.

Successful people don't get lighter sentences because the judge thinks they are good members of society and haven't hurt anyone, they get lighter sentences because they can afford a good lawyer.
