My question involves criminal law for the state of: California
My step-mother stole a $1349 out of my mail to fuel her gambling addiction. My father and I have the same first name, last name, and middle initial, so she was able to deposit it into his account, and then withdraw it.
The check was the resolution to a dispute with an insurance company through the California Department of Insurance. She destroyed all of the notices that I had received from the CDI and my company over the last two months. I called the CDI to complain and they told me that the check had been cashed. She stole $500 out of my brother's Teen Checking Account last week using my dad's bank account, so I had my dad check his records and he found the check. She admitted to the crime.
I want to press charges, but since my father's bank account was used, I'm afraid that he'll face some degree of liability. Can I press charges against her without hurting my father?
