    I'm hoping to nip this problem in the bud before getting authorities involved. Already got the bank involved...

    I'm pretty sure it's a Saab 9-3

    Sharp solves all manner of problems.

    Looked like a Saab 9-3 to me too.

    If they're stealing from you, you're probably not alone.

    I *believe* this a Federal offense.

    Oh, it's a federal offense all right. Which is why I don't want to involve the authorities, I'm pretty sure I know who's in passenger seat and if I'm right he needs help rather than more prison time. That car being a not-as-popular-as-a-Honda-or-Subaru around here helps, thanks

    Unfortunately people who've made bad decisions in the past tend to continue to make them. I applaud you for trying to give them a chance. I hope it's successful.

    I agree with what your trying to accomplish Kev and good on ya. If he goes to prison there's really no chance he'll get rehabilitated.

    I can appreciate your desire not to call the police, but unless you find a way to confront him you may have no choice. If this is happening on a regular basis, accidentally dropping a box of nails regularly may be the best to stop them.

    Kev, you're a real smart guy and there's obviously things we don't know here. I respect you trying to help him. I really do.

    He is committing a federal crime. If he stops stealing from you, it seems like he may start stealing from someone else - if he isnt already. What if he steals from an old lady who cannot afford it? What if someone confronts him, and he hurts them? There's a lot to consider here in addition to rehabilitating him.

    Just another point of view to think about. Good luck.

    What if he steals from someone laying in wait with a shotgun? They would likely have preferred some jail time to that.

    expensive car with expensive custom wheels. Stealing must pay pretty well in your town.

    More prison time? Fat chance at rehabbing this punk. My heart wouldn’t be bleeding for him, for all the reasons cited above.

    You're showing real compassion, there.

    Repeat offenders with an untreated addiction are given alternate sentences involving rehab, "uppa heya".

    If you know who it is, and choose not to alert the authorities (perhaps start with a local judge) the next victim may not be so forgiving.

    Tough call, if you know the kid.
