I Kicked My Brother’s Family Out of My Home after Checking Hidden Cameras in My Bedroom

A man revealed that one of his most prized possessions had disappeared from his house, so he checked the hidden cameras and could not believe his eyes. He tried to stay calm but eventually took action.

The man shared that his 9-year-old nephew had a habit of stealing things. He used to pick items from shops, and then his parents had to apologize to the shop owners. Fearing that his nephew might steal his engagement ring, he hid it at a place he thought the boy couldn’t reach. However, his plan failed, and his ring disappeared.

A Redditorposted his story in the “AITA” sub, explaining what happened after watching the hidden camera footage. He had installed a cheap spy camera in his room to keep an eye on his nephew.

Even after noticing their son stole things from shops, the man’s brother and his brother’s wife refused to do anything about it. They always thought their son forgot to return the items.

One day, the school principal called the man’s brother and informed him about his child’s stealing habits. The man felt embarrassed but still didn’t teach his son not to steal.

OP (Original Poster) felt his brother should talk to his son and teach him that stealing isn’t right. However, he never interfered in his nephew’s life until his engagement ring mysteriously disappeared.

OP revealed his brother had recently moved in with his family because he had lost his job and couldn’t afford to pay rent anymore. While searching for jobs, he earned money as a cab driver.

OP didn’t have a problem with his brother’s family living with him because he knew they would move out soon. However, things turned different when he saw the empty ring box in his room. He had recently bought a beautiful engagement ring for his girlfriend.

He had saved $4,000 to buy it to make his partner feel special. Since he knew his nephew was habitually stealing things, he hid the ring in a box under his drawer. His nephew had once taken his wristwatch from his room, so he wanted to be extra cautious.

He bought a cheap spy camera and installed it in his room facing the drawer. He wanted to protect his precious ring at any cost. One day, he saw the ring box empty and headed to his laptop to check the camera footage.

He wasn’t surprised to see his nephew digging through his drawers. However, he was furious because this was his last wish. He barged into his brother’s room and asked his nephew to return the ring.

He told his brother about the camera footage and demanded his ring back. His brother and sister-in-law yelled at the child and asked him to return the ring. The boy said he left it in the guest room, but it wasn’t there when they checked it.

“I know for a fact he’s lying about not having it because that’s the same thing he said about one of my watches he took then ended up finding it,” the man stated. The next day, his brother told him they couldn’t find the ring.
