What do you do?
 

I wanted to save my carpal tunnel post for something special, but I couldn't think of anything so first, yay, carpal tunnel!

You're 19-22ish and live near your parent's house. You are big and strong. You have a younger brother, 16, and a younger sister, 14. You like them both. Your parents are out of town for the weekend. Your sister has been raising money for one of her friends, who has recently become very sick and needs it for hospital bills.

She calls you and tells you:
The $1000 she has raised so far has been stolen from her room. Your little brother is having a party that night with 9 or so of his friends. They've been drinking and doing some drugs. All of his friends are still there. You're 99% sure one of them stole it.

What do you do? Can violence be avoided with a positive outcome here?

Re: What do you do?
 

doubtful. To much emotion and drugs involved

Re: What do you do?
 

I can't see this ending in a successful recovery without a full lock-down, interrogation, and possible beating. I doubt you can afford to lose that grand, so that's just the way it's gonna have to be.

Re: What do you do?
 

a) I kick my 16 year old brothers ass for not just drinking and doing drugs, but doing it around his 14 year old sister.
b) You go over and put the house on lockdown. I don't know if you're big and strong, but I'm sure you can do a good enough job handling 10 stoned 16 year olds.

This isn't about me.

Re: What do you do?
 

Put the house on lockdown. Get everyone in one room. Beat the living piss out of your brother until he gives up who stole the money, then beat the living piss out of him until he gives up the money.

Rat on your brother to your parents because he's a [censored] scumbag.

Re: What do you do?
 

To avoid the violence situation I have an option.

Inform them what the money was for. Then inform them that if the money is not returned you will inform thier parents what is happening. Then figure out a way to allow them to give you the money anonimously.

Then buy a safe.
