His Nephew Squatted In His House And Stole Expensive Items From Him, So He Called The Police

He felt this was a generous offer, as that price was far lower than what he wanted to charge prospective tenants. His nephew still said no and basically stopped speaking to him.

“I really struggled, but my family insisted that I give him a 30-day notice to vacate the property, which I had notarized,” he said.

“He ignored it. I then started to talk about eviction. We got into another argument when I got to repainting the house (with notice) because he had scuffed up the walls, [and] he kicked over my paint cans, ruining the carpet. I had no choice but to file for eviction; it was all simply too straining.”

“I had some valuables and furniture I had stored in the crawl space I’d been too afraid to move due to the tension. I found that he sold my retro games and consoles, two paintings, my dining set, and a few other things through a camera on my property. I called the police to file a report.”

When the police showed up, his nephew returned and he was not alright. Later on, it was proven that his nephew had drugs in his system.

So, on top of him filing the police report for his nephew stealing expensive items from him, his nephew is looking at a DUI and spending time in jail for possession.

His whole family is livid with him and accusing him of ruining his nephew’s life. His nephew’s parents are giving him the cold shoulder and think he should have called them first before involving the police.

“I feel like I did everything I could to help him until he crossed too many lines. I just am so stressed and guilt-ridden; I just need to hear some opinions,” he concluded.

What advice do you have for him?
