A family friend, I guess is what he was to me. My mom had a long relationship with a guy, and his son was considered almost family to us. He is like 27 or so, but very immature for his age. I'm 18 and we hang out sometimes, watch and play sports together, etc.
Anyway, his gf kicked him out of the house, so we allowed him to sleep at our house until he could find another place. A month or so before, I had let him borrow my Playstation 2 because his was broken. He brought the PS2 back with him when he came to our house. After a few weeks, he moved in with his Aunt. My PS2 stayed here, but about a week later, I came home and my mom was complaining about some porkchops missing. Thought it was me
I go into my room, and something doesn't fit in right. Come to find out, my PS2, all of my games (6 or 7), 2 CDs, and a couple DVDs were all gone.
To keep the story from getting too long, we went to his Aunts house and they denied him even being there, despite me seeing him peak out the upstairs window. My uncle is a police officer in a different town so there wasn't much he could do. He came over and scared them a bit, threatening them with an embedding an investigation charge if they lied about him being there. He ended up magically appearing shortly after, and had my stuff. We called the county officers.
He said that I told him I let him borrow the PS2, which was a lie. Then he changes his story and says that it was HIS ps2 and he has a receipt for it (which the officer didn't ask for because he didn't have it). That still doesn't explain the fact that he stole all of my other stuff as well.
The other stuff was returned, but the officer allowed him to keep the PS2. He was not charged with anything, but he had a warrant out for his arrest (check deception) so he was taken in for that.
I was just wondering why it wouldn't have been a Breaking & Entering charge, since no one was home and no one gave him permission to come inside. I was told that since he used to live there, it was okay for him to come in. But how can that be true? If you used to live with someone it doesnt make it alright to come in whenever you want. Also, since he not only took the PS2 which he claimed to be his, he took my CDs, DVDs, etc. which he agreed was mine and was returned.
I appreciate everything officers do, but I was a little disappointed in that. My mom called and asked about it and they said there was nothing they could do. We would have to take him to small claims court. I had to go out and buy another PS2, which might not be alot of money to some, but it's alot for me to buy something, especially twice.
Sorry for the long rant, I was just wanting some insight on why this would have happened.
