The People's Court Season 22 Episode 16 You Stole My Car

In The People's Court season 22, episode 16, titled "You Stole My Car," Judge Marilyn Milian presides over a case where the plaintiff, Angela, claims that the defendant, Patrick, stole her car. According to Angela, she lent her car to Patrick so he could go to the store and buy some food, but instead of returning the car, he disappeared with it for a month. When he finally returned the vehicle, it was damaged and missing various items.

Patrick denies the allegations and says that he was never given permission to take the car. He claims that he borrowed it from someone else and thought it was okay since he was helping out. He says that he did not damage the car, and that any missing items were taken by whoever borrowed the car before him.

Both parties present their evidence to the judge, including receipts, text messages, and witness testimony. Angela brings up the fact that Patrick has a criminal record for theft, which makes her case more credible. Patrick argues that his record is irrelevant to the current situation and that he is innocent until proven guilty.

The judge examines all of the evidence and listens to both sides before making her final verdict. She considers the fact that Patrick has a criminal record for theft, which makes it more likely that he would steal something again. She also notes that Patrick's story about borrowing the car from someone else is suspicious and lacks evidence.

In the end, Judge Milian rules in favor of Angela and orders Patrick to pay her for the damages to her car and the missing items. She advises Angela to avoid lending her car to people she does not know well and to always get written agreements if she does.

This episode of The People's Court shows the importance of taking precautions when lending valuable items to others. It also demonstrates the role of judges in making fair and impartial decisions based on the evidence presented to them.
