Interestingly enough, “steal” in this case doesn’t refer to property, but person(s). We’re referring to kidnapping or destruction of one’s personhood.
The commandment concerning coveting is the one that has to do with desiring another’s property, planning to take said property, and then taking the property.

Well, the thief probably never turned it on, just sold it for drug money.
