I have a girlfriend, of whom I feel is putting herself in grave jeopardy. She has an ex husband who walked out on his probation. Before he left,she acted as his friend and he put his house in her name so she can sell it for him. He wanted to give her some money (alot) for their child, with her giving him the balance of the proceeds after the sale. She also forged his name on his checks, writing out substantial amounts for herself. (There was money in his checking account when he left). She even let him stay at her home to visit their child. Now the home is sold, and she is not giving this guy the rest of his money.In other words, she has ripped this guy off.
My concern, which leads to my question is this: Isn't all of what she has done illegal? This guy (her ex) has cleaned himself up and is contacting authorities to come back and face the music. If he is upset ( a mild word) at her duplicity and disingenuinous, can he make trouble for her? She thinks that all the authorities are interested in is him. She feels that if he tells the authorities about her involvement, they really won't care and will not pursue her because he is the probation violator. I think she is playing a dangerous game. Is she correct in assuming the authorities will look the other way if he raises the issues? Will they just think it's sour grapes and ignore her involvement? After all, he is the only one who will be complaining. However,I think she may have a problem. Thank you.

Stealing is a crime, even when the victim is a criminal.

I would immediately find a new girlfriend. What she does to one she will do to another.
