This actually happened to me when I was a teen I was not aware of it until after. The person who took the ring (and a few other things) ended up going to jail for additional crimes. They sold all the things to a pawn shop and the police found some of the items there. The person who stole the stuff told them where they got the ring and that I was "in" on it. The police initially wanted me to be tried as well as an accomplice. You need to tell your Mum and then she needs to contact the authorities immediately. I had no clue so did not say anything and it made it worse somehow. This was back in the early '80's and no one had any clue about Aspergers. My "apparent" lack of emotions made me a "sociopath" according to the detective.

You need to walk to the pawn shop. If the ring is there, take a photo. Ring your mother and inform her you have found the ring in the pawn shop. Inform the owner you have photographed the ring, that it is stolen and has been reported stolen and that you are surprised the shop owner did not find the transaction suspicious given the circumstances of the ring's value and the youthful age of the person who pawned it for so little. Inform the shop owner that you've informed the ring's owner of it's where-abouts and remind the owner you have photographed the ring in their store. Wait for your mother to arrive at the store. If the owner will not return the ring, call the police. It is illegal to be possession of stolen property.

After your mother has the ring, get hold of this 'non-friend'. Complain to her that your mother is really annoyed at you because someone stole her ring and it turned up in a pawn store. Even though your mum got it back she's blaming you for it going missing; you do not know why she always thinks everything is your fault, harp on the unfairness of this. Make a flippant accusation about who of your mum's associates could be the culprit (it could have been that 'bloody' neighbour, boyfriend, friend of hers....). Be sure to convey that you are being blamed, give the impression that your mother found the ring in the store independently of you, and that you suspect it could have been so and so (associate of your mother's),and how unfair it is for your mother to implicate you.


If you live in Britain, then it is a criminal offense for the pawn shop to take possession of stolen property. The shop could loose it's license and the owner face criminal charges. If the pawn shop is caught with stolen goods, there is a good chance they will give up the information as to who sold the goods to them, in an attempt to mitigate their own legal consequences.

Frankly a pawn shop that would accept such an item from someone so young, without conducting extensive checks, deserves any legal ramifications that come its way. If the owner is honest, they may have contacted the police and be holding the ring for a period in case it is reported stolen. The best first step is to try to locate the ring in the pawn store. If it is there on sale, photograph it and call your mother.

Thanks pandd.
I never would have thought of that.
I'm going to go the pawn shop today and check if it is there. I'm also going to alert the store to it and see if anything has been handed in or viewed by them. If nothing still turns up I am going to report the ring as stolen but hopefully the police will not alert her to it or tell her our families names, otherwise I'm putting ourselfs at risk. do you thin they will do that?
thanks again. ^-^

okay so they have called, and my mum has her ring back. ^-^
however, now the police have alerted her and although i´m on holiday I spoke to a friend over msn and she says she is after me and is going to wait outside my house when we return.
help??

let us pray for your survival...

and slug her in the face

but by the way you sound, she must be a body builder.
