Question about something that was stolen?

My friend and me where in a parking lot and she saw a walker that an old lady uses so she took it and started riding off with it and stuff so i told her to put it back becuase its stealing and i dont want to get in trouble so she was like oh its using so anyways she left it at the bike rack at my condo and the woman found out called the cops and they eventually found it what happens now?

Answer:
This happened to me several times when I was a kid. Kids do stupid things. Its in the job description.

The very point that you are feeling remorse about this satisfies me. Don't ever lose that type of empathy.

You were torn between the commission of a very minor crime and the loyalty to a friend. I am not in your shoes. I wasn't there. So I am not going to preach. I had the very same anxiety when I was young. And honestly this sort of issue never does quite go away. These sort if issues constantly will arise throughout your future life and good decisions are important.

The cops won't likely harass you. They found the walker. They retrieved the walker. If they haven't questioned you already then they aren't going to pursue the issue. And in that I am glad because it appears that nothing a law court could match the trouble you already feel. Knowing the law courts and the police the way I do for you to enter the corridors of that system at this time is not the way to solve this problem or help you. Hopefully what I write will.

However lets look at the other side of the issue. Okay.

That friend of yours may not be. She is cruel. It is not funny to remove a walker from a disabled person. Simply that is a very mean thing to do.

Not listening to you is not the actions of a friend. You gave good advice. That is a mean thing to do. She cares nothing for what you think. You are a very good person.

You screwed up in a way. We all screw up. This may be the first. Trust me it won't be the last. You did become an accessory to the crime. Again that was a very mean thing to do to you.

Further she left the walker in your bike lock stand thereby directly implicating you in the crime. And likely if you did tell the truth, she would lie about her part in this. Trust me she would deny everything.

Now you are likely still torn. You have feelings for this girl probably. Either as a friend or otherwise good company.

The choice is yours. I hope that you understand that she did this to an old person, a disabled person and she did this to you. I am making a statement here. From what you said she is a very mean person who cares little for anyone else except herself, her warped sense of funny.

If in the unlikely event the police do come around you must state that you don't know how that got there. Tell the truth by saying that you did not put it there. Which you didn't.

If they ask or anyone else asks, if you might know the person who took this again tell the truth. "No friend (or buddy) of mine." And that is the truth.

If they do ask that if your friend Ms. @#% took it. Then you must again tell the truth "She isn't no friend of mine."

If they press on further then simply state that she is the type to steal someone's walker. Which is the truth. If they tell you that either she said that you took it. Lets say if someone saw you two together. Simply state the truth that you didn't have nothing to do with stealing the walker.

In reality though, I doubt that the police will delve further. Anyone else ask about this simply go through the answers and keep the story consistent.

However the Police have noted where they found the walker. It is up to you to decide whether or not you must carry on a relationship with a person, even a female person who behaves to others so callously. She has stuck it to the old lady and you once. Trust me she will do it again. If you wish to remain one of her "friends" follow the old saying.

"Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."

I wish you the best of luck on this. Take this experience and keep it in your hip pocket.

You are a very good person. It is time to move on and remember and use this experience as a lesson.


You may be in a lot of trouble. Be more selective about who you have as friends.
Ummm why would you steal an old ladies walker...
Hopefully nothing, but if the cops wanted to they could consider that stealing..
Golly gee. Ripping off an old lady. What kind of dingus are you. I hope you get a big fine.
Thats very mature of her to steal an old womens walker. Tell your freind she needs to grow up. Now you no why eveyone hates our country
If you are questioning whether you are "guilty" or not...you are considered an accessory. You knew about it and did not stop it. There is a saying that keeps things easy to understand. If you walk with sh*t enough, some of it sticks. Get it?
