My boyfriend stole his parents credit card two years ago. He doesn't remember what he bought. We were in a fight with his parents and we weren't talking to them. They did something to my son that caused medical problems during a time they were watching him. (trust me they deserved it, I was told by ER doctors that it would be a good idea to let they see him alone, then when I said they could see him only with me they said they will do what ever they want with my son even if I say no) So they confronted my bf about it, he confessed. We said we'd pay them back for what ever bf was responsible for and they refused it. They threatened to call the police and press charges. I begged them not to, that we would just pay them the money. They said they didn't want our money they just want time with our son. We ended up letting them baby sit for an hour then we gave them $200 dollars. I later asked for a billing statement and they refused, I asked for amounts numerous times but still all they would say was they wanted to see my son. So I feel black mailed. I stopped letting them see him again, now I think they are going to try something. This was two years ago to the month. Could BF be arrested and/or brought up on criminal charges? He is already on probation for using a stolen credit card from last fall. Or because they received payment can they only sue us for the remainder?

If they did something to your son that was against the law, or inappropriate then you should have called the police, not take justice into your own hands and have boyfriend steal their credit card. It is probably too late for his parents to press charges but they can sue you in court for the remainder of the balance. Your son is not a pawn, I hope you do not use him as a power tool to get what you want from your inlaws. They have every right to seek repayment of these charges. So it appears your boyfriend like to steal credit cards as he is currently on probation. He did not learn from the first time?
