Asked by Joshua Raketich almost 12 years ago

Maybe.  Are you an adult and can you show the property in dispute was clearly owned by you?  There are too many factors for me to make any kind of determination on what you might be able to do.  Why don't you got talk to a local police officer?

Nice jpg on an opinion blog.  But there is no context to it, and it is therefore meaningless.

What should I do if I hear that kids my age (13) have drank shots and so have their friends? I think their parents supplied the vodka. I don't know if I have the confidence or sufficient evidence to report them. (To be continued)
