I went to my friend hse and left my ipod there then went out with my friend to buy something. I had left my things there many times before and had no problem until now. While we were out, my friend's friend who is a young celebrity came to his hse and the mother let him. When we got back to his hse, my ipod was missing and the celebrity had already left.
I called him and when i question him he said he might have thrown it out with the trash which was kind of ridiculous. After some talking, he agreed to pay back in cash and said to give him some time. He also promised to put his Gameboy as a deposit until he have the cash.
However, after tat conversation with him, it was near impossible to reach him. For the next few weeks, he was always not at home and his hp is always off. And now my friend informed me that he seems to have moved house.
What can i do now? If i make a police report will i have enough to charge him? And since hes a celebrity can i write to the newspaper?

well the reason why i dun wan to put his name here is becos he is still only 14 yrs old. and besides i'm trying to find out wat i can do here and not trying to defame him here so theres really no point in saying his name here isnt it?
Btw if u dun have any constructive answers maybe it would be better if u dun post at all?

So long as you have reason to believe that he is the one taking the ipod, report him to the Police. It is not you your job to be concern with whether he will be charged. The fact that he is prepared to pay you the money and even placed his game boy as a deposit says something about his guilt.
If he is charged, he will be charged in juvenile court. By doing so, he may be punished to serve a probation and as for your ipod, if you really want it back, you have to do so by way of takng up a civil suit. But let's face it, it's not worth it.
In summary, let the 14 year old knows that he has done wrong and tell him not to re-offend. Let his parents know about it.

The fact that the guy is a celebrity has nothing to do with the fact that he stole your property. The problem is .. >proving< he is indeed the one who stole it. What good will come of writing the newspapers? You may as well kiss the iPod goodbye. The moral of this story here is: .Don't leave your personal effects behind. Ever.

Celebrity or not, call the police. The fact he is a celebrity has nothing to do with his moral fibre. Stealing is obviously criminal. No sense in letting him grow up to be a thief and a negative role model.
