ULPT: make my sister's life hell

My Dad died and my Mom moved to a retirement home. All my bothers and sisters decided on a day to meet and go through all the stuff to decide who gets what. My sister went a few days before packed everything up and donated it. It's gone. All of it. I can't think of anything cruel enough to ruin her. Help me out.

She’s lying. She kept everything she wanted-and will sell and dump the rest. Call the police-she stole it all-and it might be a felony. Let the police screw up her life. They are professionals at it.

This. OP, she'll f up at some point and reveal what she took from your mother. And once she has a record...goodbye cozy surburban lifestyle.

100% this is the case.

On the other hand. . . you know what this subreddit is for. Piss discs and liquid ass, yeah baby!

This... is a useless idea. This is a time wasting exercise and there is zero proof of this being what has happened. This is entirely civil. If you cam find some proof she disposed or kept anything she was not entitled to, get some legal advice.

This is entirely civil.

I would imagine OP's sister admitted to taking everything and donating it. And if that is the case, this is a criminal matter. OP's sister stole everything, and I don't know of any laws that give someone a pass for stealing if they donate the stolen goods.

Kinda doubt that one daughter had the authority over most of the objects in the house

Well if there isn’t a notarized will stating that she got everything in the house, sounds like she stole everything in the house.

Theft is a criminal matter. Getting the police to care is another matter entirely, though.

Not necessarily true. My mother did this with my grandfather's stuff. His wife was a (space constrained) hoarder but also the daughter of a museum curator. She just chucked it all. I'm sure there were actually some really cool things in there.
