It's not illegal to "steal" wireless unless it's encrypted and he hacks in. If it's unencrypted and he borrows a signal, it's perfectly legal.
About an illegal copy of photoshop, you can report it but I seriously doubt the police will do anything. Usually, they only go after dealers of illegal software or people that obtain massive amounts. I've never heard of a case of police prosecuting anyone for simply possessing illegal software unless it's a large amount (over 1000 copies). So if you report this, the police will probably laugh at you.

first of all, if the person does not place a security code on the wireless router they allow the router to broadcast the single over public air waves then your cousin is not stealing if he/she receives a single broad cast over public airwaves

Yes you should. You aren't helping anyone, including him, by not reporting him.
