If my camera got "stolen" out of a car and was in my "friends" friend car...is it my fault?

She says her attorney says its not their fault it was stolen from the car...but the persons car(lets call him matt), Matts had his stereo and ipod stolen before. I strongly believe my camera was stolen by my FRIEND! Is it my fault it was stolen from the car, or,because i put it in their car, do they take responsibility for it? I've already spoke to detectives and police...we filed a report . (this is the story...of what happened...)So i went to a concert called warped tour and i was trying to sneak my prosessional camera in and they didnt allow it so I asked my friend Nichole if I could put the camera in her friends car and get it before the concert ended. She said sure so I put it in the car. At the end of the concert I found nichole(now, she lives 50 minutes to a hour from me) and she said that her friends left without her and they had my camera. i freaked out, but asked her to ship it to me and she said she would have her mom because when she was "touring with all time low". she said her mom sent it to be there in 2-3 days, it never came. i had texted her many times for the tracking number and she finally gave it to me on thursday. i called ups and fedex and both companies said nothing was being shipped to my house. i said to nichole"you know i can sue you for stealing" and she said "its not my fault fedex lost it" my friend richard said his friend told him nichole got a nikon d40 from alex from all time low(which i don't believe. thats my nikon d40!) and i called nichole and she was like "sam i would never steal from you you're my friend and nikons suck leslie(the girl whos car i left my camrea in) has one and she says they suck" then, Nichole says to me"i told you before in a text message that the camera got stolen out of my friends car and i was covering for him because he thought he could get in legal trouble for it; AFTER speaking to an attorney, he can't. SOOOO i told you the truth; it's gone and NONE of us can do anything about it just like none of us can get back him IPOD or Stereo system either." the she said" No, i don't take you for an idiot. I lied to cover for a friend; his car does have damage his back window was smashed open. Theres nothing that can be done about it now, i didn't steal your camera. I wouldn't. I sold my canon and then the camera i've been using is a poloriod camera idk exactly what it's called but its a poloriod digital and i'm just really good at photoshop. AND no according to the attorney the responsibilty of the camera is still yours; wheither its in his car or not in the end; just like when my film camera was stolen out of davids.." -------------------------------------- if you can help me, and want to communicate about this, please message meon myspace or AIM(samkelliexxx) myspace.com/samkelliexxx I won't forget it, the camera was 500$, and the lens itself i brought was 155$. It wasnt just a crappy little 100$ camera that i can buy with my next paycheck. +my dad went to the police/detectives and showed them messages she had sent me and what not...she said in one of the mesages she went to an attorney, so the police/detectives said she knew she did something wrong to speak to a detective i said to her: this entire story makes no sense. first you lied about your mom shipping it. then you lied and gave me a fake tracking number. then you lied saying you sent it and i'm pretty sure you promise you sent it. then i heard from richard that his friend said you got a nikon d40. then you're like "he has no idea what hes talking about" and all of its coming up to...if Matt had his iPod stolen, and stereo system , wouldn't he 1. lock his car door. 2. bring my camera inside if he lived in a bad neighborhood or what not. the camera was given to you and them...put in his car, which locks, because i had the keys to put it in there, and it locked after i pressed lock. so if hes had stuff stolen before...he would lock the door...and if it was stolen (continuing to what i said toher) before...he would lock the door...and if it was stolen the windows, or car, would have been broken into ...therefore resulting in some sort of damage, at least i believe so. you guys were given responsibility of the camera when i asked if it was okay to put it in the car. overall, this entire story seems to be such a lie. not to mention you posted a bulletin about selling a nikon coolpix(which, i've had one, they take semi-crappy pictures so obviously your new ones aren't taken with that) and a canon 40d for your moms surgery...none of this makes sense Nichole, or is believable. you wanted to buy my camera from me before and honestly, i'm starting to believe you thought "hey i have it for for free." and people there is no need to be rude about this. i'm 15. i don't know how to explain things, and i don't know what to do..jesus.

1. You can file a criminal charge of theft against the suspect if you have evidence.
2. You should be a lawyer. All this drivel could have been said in two sentences.
3. What did the tracking number say?? Give it up
4. IF THE CAMERA WAS GIVEN TO THEM TO SECURE IT THE LAW SAYS THEY HAVE WHAT IS CALLED A BAILMENT WHICH MEANS THAT THEY MUST RETURN IT TO YOU IN THE SAME CONDITION AS GIVEN TO THEM. AND THEY MUST USE WHAT IS CALLED EXTREME CARE SINCE IT WAS GIVEN TO THEM TO BE SECURED. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE REIMBURST THE VALUE OF THE CAMERA AT IT'S DEPRECIATED VALUE. GOOD LUCK KID.
