Xbox was stolen. UPDATE! FOUND HIM! (Sort of)

Make sure when doing that confrontation to take pair of ViseLocks with you... thought you may have some trouble finding any balls on that sackless POS.
 
Haha, y'all have some funny comments. It definetly puts me in a better mood.

And whoever called me a pussy....I would LOVE for you to call that to my face. You may think differently. 😀 I can more hold my own with any of these guys, and have plenty of friends to back me up. But I'm trying to AVOID violence. I already have a family member in trouble with the law, I have too much riding on my future to get thrown in jail because I broke some punk's neck.

Anyway, nothing too interesting happened tonight. I guess the boyfriend was probably in the "heist" too. Plus, he has four warrants out for his arrest (little did I know, and my sister was being a BAD judge of character). So....this is what I guess is going to happen....

My sister's friend is going to confront her now ex-bf (I guess the friend and bf are cousins). He's going to tell him he knows he stole it. He can either give it back or my sister is going to call the cops. If anything to bust his ass on the warrants. We would do it now but my sister doesn't even know her boyfriends last name. They were only new in the relationship.

So that's the story. We decided if it doesn't work to just drop it and split the bill on a new one. The last thing I want is for this guy to be causing problems around here. Better put, the last thing HE wants is to be causing problems around here.

And to everyone who asked- Yes, that is the only thing they took. Weird huh. Like I said before, I have other things much more valuable than a stupid Xbox in my room.
 
Like my mom always told me:

"If you can't confront openly, Do it secretly."

Actually, I said that.

Do whatever you can get back to him.

"Don't get mad, get even." My mom did say that.
 
Man, sounds like your sister picks up men outside of the city jail.

Cops usually won't do anything with stolen x-box... so in this case, yes, they're just decorations.
 
I knew this one guy that stole my James Bond 007 game for N64.

That was about 6? years ago, 4 years after the incident, his tires got slashed. Since then, his tires have been slashed 4 more times, costing him well over the cost of a James Bond 007 Game. Don't fuckwit the irish.

That game is good. I would break his windshield next time too. Screw that, take 3 lugnuts away and leave him with one unscrewed one...hehe. I'm a wuss, so I wouldn't actually do this.

Dude. You rule.
 
Call the cops.

Your MAC Address is on your original BOX and WARRANTY CARDS, etc. (to help track it). Use your receipt, should have the serial number of the xbox as well. You'll get your xbox back, and your thug friend gets taken off to jail.

Call the cops the next day saying he messed with you (if you so desire), and get a restraining order against him. Sounds like your sister doesn't date cool guys too, you should beat her up while you're at it.
 
Ok, what i would have done is told the cops this:

1.I have a friend who saw him take it out of my apt (have a good bud fib)
2.You confronted the guy but he pulled a gun (you said he has guns and is wanted by the cops)
3.go with the cops when they make the bust with reciept of xbox


The cops would probably be more inclined to go over there for warrants and guns. Get your sh!t while they haul him off to PMITA prison for warrants, guns, assault.

If the cops in your area dont care then raise hell.

I really cant believe that you made your sister go over to a guys place when you said that you are worried about guns. I grew up on the beach and now live in yuppieville so i dont want to assume that i know where you are coming from but for fvcks sake, take care of this yourself and get your sister some better bfriends.......


Last thing:
Call Jerry Springer.
 
Cops. I wouldn't want my sister dealing with a thug that likes guns.

Either that or buy a new Xbox.

Short and sweet-

From some good detective work I am pretty sure who took my xbox. Other than the obvious (finding him and strangling him) what should I do? Call the cops?

It's one of my sisters boyfriend's friend. She's going to confront him tonight, but there is a slight problem. The guy thinks he's a thug and likes to play with guns if you all know what I mean. She needs to do something since she was the one who let him in the house and stay here while she was asleep.

Speaking of holding a grudge....but I don't blame you one bit....

Like what's his face said in regards to OJ's actions, "I don't know if i would've killed them, BUT I UNDERSTAND" or something like that....
 
forget the Xbox issue for a moment...if you tell the police he has guns and you are afraid to ask him personally due to you thinking he will pull one out on you...the police will first check if he is registered, if not, they will be over there with a warrant.

Another thing also, if they prove he stole your Xbox and at any time a gun was involved (whether it being carried, or pulled) he falls under the no-tolerance policy of 10-20-life I am pretty sure.
