hi you all dont know me but my name is mike I'm 14

so anyway i got hometoday i got a phone call saying that i stole a kids bike seat which i didnt and dont know anything about the kids parents came to my house and said if you dont give the seat back we will press charges they also said my several of my friends gave my name up what should i do? my parents dont want me to pay because they know I'm innocent

mike
 
If you are innocent, let them press the charges. Innocent until proven guilty...means the burden of proof is on them. If they can't do anything better than he said/she said, then you should have little to worry about.

Realize, I am not a lawyer and am not giving you legal advice...just giving you my opinion.
 
If you are a juvenile (as in under the age of 18), it may go on your juvenile record which gets expunged when you become an adult. Expunged means erased, go away, no more, bye-bye...plus what is a police report going to do to you when they find you innocent. Your innocence will make the accuser look the fool, and they may actually owe you big time for defamation and slander. Not to mention, they look pretty freaking stupid for accusing you of something you didn't do.

I'm with Sky.

Screw them - let them come after you. Tell your parents to sue them for the time they will have to waste plus some. Split the profit with your parents and buys some parts for your R.C.'s.

If it was one of my kids that is what I would do.

My oldest is 13 and YES, I just had an incident with the cops and a nutcase mother. My daughter was falsely accused of more than what really happened.
 
all this over a bicycle seat ?

it seems a little absurd to want to press charges against someone over a friggin bicycle seat. its not even an entire bicycle. people these days...
well anyway, I'm definetely with sky and chris.
 
i think at is a little bit over done...it sounds like she is just sueing to get money... just forget about it and it will all pass over. anyways a Really good bike seat is like 24$ and a normal one is like 12$. also i am with everyone else
 
thanks for the response it was a red and black seat also last year these people blammed me when there christmas lights were stolen
 
If the seat meant that much to them the should have looked after it better in the first place.

Instead of putting their effort towards fixing the situation they would rather spend money and time playing the blame game.

If you really didn't do it, stand defiant and strong. Looks good on 'em when they loose in court and you walk away happy and releived........and they still don't have a seat.
