so my ipod got stolen by my brothers little friend who is 16 or 17. it was stolen monday night the 30th and i KNOW he stole it for a fact. he stole the 30gb video ipod with a $30 case and the usb cord and the usb power adapter. now since he is 16 or 17 and im 20 i cant lay a finger on him cuz i know he would rat me out and id get busted for assault cuz he is a BIGTIME p*ssy and a HUGE liar (he told me bro this weekend that me and my friends were lookin to beat him up this weekend which is bullsh*t) so i know he would exagerate the whole thing and my brother wont be doing anything about it what the hell should i do?
 
It depends if you're alright with ratting this little SOB out. If so, you could confront him, tell him squarely, "I know what you did, give me back my iPod and you don't get in any trouble" and if he resists then tell his parents. It may be a pussy way out, but the only way to actually get what you want from these people is to go down to their level. Or you could have your brother get up an army of some under-18 kids who hate this kid.
 
kids like that need to be taught a leason he needs to be responsible for his actions, hes old enough to know so if you have any proof i would go to the police. I know it sounds harsh but they will probley make him give it back or some money, as well as they will hopfully teach him a leason.. with kids like that at that age a leason needs to be learned b4 they get into real trouble
 
I would just intimidate him, no direct threats but lead him to ASSUME that something horrible would happen to him if he didn't return whats yours. Just dont hit the little klepto.
 
I like the idea of showing up with an army of minors to do your bidding. Big scary one's that you yourself would be scared of if you hadn't gotten on their good side. I'm pretty sure your brother will know of some, everyone does. If you don't want to go that route then talk to teh parents and tell them that you will get the police involved. Depending on the value of all of the items it could be a minor form of larceny, a felony in some places. Just don't kick the crap out of him, it sounds like it could turn out like the guy who got arrested for threatening a kid that hit his car with a snowball if you're not careful.
 
File a police report and follow through. It isn't grand theft, but if he starts this way with out getting johnny law to scare tehpiss out of him, then it will just get worse.
As a parent, that is what I would want to happen to my kid.
If you are worried about ruinging his life because of a record, it can be expunged at 18 or 21, according to the judge, and if he keeps his nose clean.
 
You beat his a@@ you will probably get nada! You go to his door in the evening when parents are home ,act like an adult and tell him or his parents you would like your items back or you will be contacting the athorities. If that doesnt work call the police ,cuz if anything happens to him he is blaming you anyway.
 
Did you register the iPod with Apple? The serial number will be in Apple's database and its printed right on the back of the iPod....

I think this is the way.... you need to tell his parents that you believe he has taken the iPod, since you really don't have any proof....if that doesn't seem to get any action you can inform his parents that your next step is to contact the local police and file a report with them naming him as a suspect....that should get some action.....no parent that I know would not react to this and its non threatening, its just facts

I certainly hope he did.... that's the biggest reason TO register them; they're expensive and people love to steal them.

In my experiences, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Don't expect them to admit their kid is a thief; they most likely conditioned him to be like this (from how you are describing him). However, this is good advice in general. Taking the professional route usually pays off.

If that attempt fails, put on a ski-mask and [fill in the blank]...

This sounds good enough to me.
Seems that kids committing crimes are getting younger & younger. It's a shame. Hopefully the parents will understand & question their son rather than quickly say "Oh my son wouldn't do that".
 
Just one caution.

Be sure he is actually the one that stole it.

When I was about 12 years old a kid in our group stole a hunting knife from a friend and then said he saw me take it. As you might guess, a friendship was destroyed. At least 6 months later, the person that actually stole the knife was seen with it.
After 6 months of being considered a thief, I was finally cleared.
FWIW, I was never able to forgive the guy that accused me or the guy that believed him. Like I said, a friendship was destroyed.
