Okay, everyone....ya'll all know by now that I am raising my sister and my brother. Well, my sister is 18 now and a legal adult, so I guess I am not raising her, but I am still taking care of her.
She was arrested yesterday on a felony burlary of a vehicle charge with a friend of hers!!!! I am SO upset, I have NO idea what to do! BUT I am angry too!!!

I am angry because SHE DID NOT BURGLARIZE A VEHICLE!!!! Here's what happened: Mel (my sister) and C, her friend, went to the charter school here in Carthage to see a friend of theirs (K) because they were leaving that night to go spend a week with C's parents in Illinois. So they saw her, then went back outside to get in the car. They were parked right beside the K's car. C looked in the car and noticed a CD case. Well, K's boyfriend had borrowed C's cd case, and C thought that the one she saw was it! So she reached into the OPEN CAR WINDOW and grabbed the CD case so that the girls could listen to the CD's on the way to Illinois (cause they took the train). Once they were already on the train, they realized that they were not C's cd's. So while they were in Illinois, they talked to K and told her that they had her CD's and would bring them to her when they got back from Illinois. K pressed charges on them! They have a video tape from the school that shows C reach into the window and get the CD's while Mel (my sister) stands there. Well, K called them again before they left Illinois and told them that she was going to press charges if she didn't get her cd's back. So the day I picked them up from the airport, I took them straight to the police station so they could give the police the cd's. The police told them that they couldn't take the cd's, that the girls had to take the cd's the K. So we went to the house and they called K and said "hey, we are back in town, we have your cd's. Do you want to come over here and get them or do you want us to meet you somewhere?" K said "I don't want the f****** cd's!" and hung up on them! That was last Saturday. Then, they came and arrested my sister and her friend C yesterday!
HOW ridiculous is that?! This girl is/was their friend!!! How many times have you gone in a friend's car, or house, or purse, or desk????? They didn't STEAL the cd's, they thought they were C's and when they realized they weren't they did everything they couldto correct it!!! What else could they have done?!
