Child Stole from Grandparent
My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Massachusetts
Two days ago, I found out my 14 yo son stole $350.00 from his grandmother (my mother) whom we live with. He took it to his mothers for her scheduled visitation, and she brought him to purchase a bike with.
Since then, she was supposed to bring the bike back to my home and failed to do so. I told her it needs to come here and she said "You can get it when you pick up our daughter Sunday"
another part of this is, my ex wife tells me our son does not want to return to the custodial home (with me) and wants to remain with her. But I told her he needs to return.
Back to the bike issue... I am concerned something will happen to this bike and need it here as I want to return it to get the $ back.
Does this bike now apply as stolen property and can she be held accountable for not returning it to me instantly?
Thank you for any comments and help
There is a lot more to this entire story but, this question is only regarding the bike right now
