If my boyfriend stole items and pawned them what can i do without getting him arrested
My boyfriend stayed with me a couple of nights out of the week. I recently found out that over the past couple of months that he has stolen items out of house. The things that I have noticed so far are items such as a car radio system,playstation 2, P2P (handheld gamesystem), and playstation 2 games. I didn't notice the items were gone before because these are not items I play with on a everyday bases. I know what pawn shop he uses most often but what I don't know is what action can I do to get him to return the items or pay for them. I don't have receipts for these items because they were a couple years old and most of them were given to me. Please tell me what I can do and how to go about doing it. I really don't want to ruin his life by getting him arrested. I just want my things
