territory, the jurisdiction of the offense is in any competent court within either jurisdictional territory, or any contiguous jurisdictional territory if the arrest is made within the contiguous territory, the prosecution secures on the record the defendant&#8217;s knowing, voluntary, and intelligent waiver of the right of vicinage, and the defendant is charged with one or more property
