Can a person get arrested for selling another's stuff after they leave it?

Asked by ShanEnri (4424points) July 19th, 2011

My niece’s boyfriend left her and their 2 kids high and dry. He took their money and food stamps and left her with nothing. He willingly left his stuff behind and there are witnesses saying he said he didn’t want and didn’t care about it. She needed money and asked me if I wanted the ps3 for $60 and of course I took it. Now he’s saying he’s going to have her arrested for theft for selling it to me! Can he do this?
