Met secretly with a friend who lives in a residential group (because it's not during visiting hours). The friend climbed out of his window, which was open for the time of the meeting. During the meeting, I also briefly parked my car in a place that was less visible to the caregivers, so that I was out of sight of my friend for a few minutes.
A week later, my friend told me that his Nintendo Switch was gone and that he had been missing it for a few days after the meeting. Presumably it is only with him at work, which is now inaccessible due to the corona.
However, my friend has autism (I don't know if it's because of it) and his mother doesn't like me. Now she gave him the idea that I could have stolen the console, where he is getting into.
This puts me in stress because I'm afraid that if the switch is not at work for him, the police will call me and my parents will notice that I have met with him, which would be embarrassing to me. Above all, I have no desire to search the apartment. Is the police likely to act in this way? Actually it's just a toy.
And what is wearing me down is how to prove to my friend that I don't have the thing.
The police won't care at all
Thanks, can you tell me what makes you so safe?
The police are not searching your apartment because of this.
The police are not interested in misplaced toys
I would say if the police are at your door and you tell them that they might be at work (the switch) then I think they will go there first because a house search is a lot of effort for them
Okay thanks, but what if she's not at work either?
Ka just wait
Since you mentioned that you parked your car, I assume that you are of legal age. If the theft of the console is reported to the police and you are named as a suspect, you will only be invited for questioning in writing. The letter would be addressed to you and your parents would not have to learn anything.
Despite everything, I assume that the evidence here is so thin and maybe it actually turns out that your friend's console is at work and that the public prosecutor's office would also terminate the proceedings on his own initiative.
