What is the fine and jail term my daughter may receive for this?

There really isn’t enough information in your post to determine this. It depends on many variables. First and foremost, someone would have to press charges against her for stealing. If they did, then there would be an investigation. Fines and jail time only come along if she is found guilty of committing a crime or if she agrees to a plea rather than taking her changes with a trial, if it comes to that.

These guys probably have a criminal background, fear the law, so I doubt they’d press charges. They’re the type who would burn her house down or put a bomb in her mailbox. So I’m worried.

I’d be worried to. That is a completely different issue. It sounds like she is in a situation that she needs to try to get out of before things get worse than some missing items.

She had permission to be in his house, and she retrieved things that he stole from her? Why would he report her, and why would anyone press charges against her? This doesn’t sound like a matter that would involve the police at all.

On the other hand, yeah, she should probably worry about retaliation. But this is her problem; I don’t see what you could possibly do about it. She chooses to hang with people like this, and doesn’t seem to act as if she fears them. What more can be done?

^^^^^^^^^ good points. Thanks.

No arrest, no charges, no story here.

@cazzie maybe not but have you seen screaming in the streets and throwing rocks? I haven’t but my life has been different.

Oh, you mean when it wasn’t me? then, no. Look, it seems she should be bringing the charges, not the other way. Seems you are rather full of angst over what you daughter is going through.

Not sure what “angst” is but it’s more accurate to say I’ve been full of horror, anger and sorrow for twenty years.

Just curious as to where she found the bracelet. Was it just lying out where she could see it while feeding the dog or was she going through his stuff and found it?

I could be on the wrong track @Aster and forgive me if I am, but isn’t your daughter a bit troubled to start off with? I’d suggest her finding out for herself and letting her take responsibility for her actions whether good or bad or whatever.

@LornaLove Of course she’ll find out for herself. She often does.
@chyna Because the guy is an alcoholic and she doesn’t trust him for some reason she went through his dirty laundry and found the bracelet. She found two or three more of her things but I don’t know if they were found on this day we’re talking about or previously . I am pretty sure he has brain damage because she said he “gave me a plate of food on my plate he had stolen .”
