I hope you enjoy this story. My bros girl straight up took my daughter's stuff when they were here. Caught her in the act, and she had the nerve to claim her kids were supposed to have those things. Accused me of embarrassing her. Her. A bit of background here, I, 39F, have a brother, 32M, who I'll call Chase. Chase has been with this girl, 35F, that I'll call Vivian for almost two years now. About a month into their relationship, Vivian got pregnant with my nephew who is now almost a year old.

Vivian also has two daughters, 5F and 8F, from a previous relationship. Her daughters are very close in age to my daughter, 7F, and up until last weekend everyone got a long fine. They live in a different state than us but come to visit fairly often and stay with us because we have the extra room. Last weekend they came to stay again and about an hour before they left my daughter. noticed that a few of her favorite toys were missing. The girls were playing all weekends, so I didn't think much of it and offered to help her look for them. After about 20 minutes of searching, we could not find the toys anywhere, so I asked Vivian's girls if they remembered where they were playing with them last. The girls said no, but acted a little guilty about it.

I asked Chase and Vivian about it, and Chase said he saw the exact toys in the room that Vivian's girls were sleeping in. We went to check and they were not there. He asked Vivian if She had moved them when she packed the girls' things that morning and she said they were not there. We went back into the living room and I saw Vivian's girls huddled close together over a backpack and quickly closed it when they saw we were there. Chase asked the girls again if they knew where the toys were and this time they didn't say anything and just looked at their mom. Chase reached for the bag and Vivian lost it.

She started yelling at me how dare I accuse her daughters of stealing and she tried to snatch the bag away. Chase opened it and there were the missing toys plus a few more. I was absolutely furious. I told her I wanted to see what else she had and demanded she opened the two suitcases. She said that was an invasion of her privacy and tried to take them and leave. Chase stopped her and made her open them. She had taken several tops, a few skirts and dresses, and a brand new pair of Nikes that belonged to my daughter. I took everything back and told her she and her girls were not allowed back into my home. I have since received several texts from her and a few unknown numbers telling me I embarrassed her and upset her girls because they were

promised the items. Chase is upset with her but said I was too mean to her in front of everyone and that I could have handled the situation more privately. I do feel awful that her girls left crying but Atha for how I handled the situation. Edit 1, answers to a few questions I keep getting. I am not sure who promised the girls the items. She would not elaborate, but I'm assuming it was her. She wanted me to pull her aside into a different room away from Chase and the kids to talk the situation out. Also, yes, I'm 99% sure the baby is his. He is almost a carbon copy of my brother when he was a baby. I do not believe the girls knew they were stealing the things. I really believe that their mom told them I said it was okay. We have never had problems with the girls before this.

They really seem to be good kids. Also, I'll be talking with my brother tonight or tomorrow to discuss things further. Edit 2, thank you all so much for the responses. I'm sorry I haven't been able to get to everyone's comments as I really didn't think this would take off. I talked with my brother last night and showed him a lot of your comments and suggestions and thanks to someone in the comments we now know a lot more about Vivian and the kind of person she really is.

I will not be able to tell you all everything, but I can tell you that my brother and nephew are now staying with us while he gets a DNA test and proceeds to cut ties with her. I may have more to give you all in the coming days or weeks depending on what the paternity test says. Again, thank you all so much. Comments where OPP has replied. Comment 1. NTA, holy shit that is a hot mess. You should not feel bad for their crying but you might talk to your brother about his terrible choice and partners. OOP, our family never really loved her but she has never done anything before this. To my knowledge, that was a major red flag. Unfortunately, even if he does leave her, he stuck for another 17 years comment too.

NTA, I may not have thought to open the suitcases. I would have thought the girls just stole the toys but the clothes makes it seem like it was Vivian's act, especially if the girls were promised them. Who else would promise them? Your brother, his wife and children slash stepchildren shouldn't be invited back. Anyone saying anything to you can host them themselves or STFU. OOP, I normally wouldn't have thought to check either but the way she grabbed them and tried to leave set off all the warning bells in my head. Comment three. And who was there to be embarrassed in front of? It sounds like it was just your two families. You don't want to be called out as a thief, don't steal.

OOP, I embarrassed her in front of Chase and my perfect daughter as she called her OOP on not letting Vivian and her daughters back into her house OOP, they are no longer welcome back. My brother and nephew can stay anytime but he'll have to leave them at home. Comment 4. So she promised your daughter's clothing, shoes and toys to her children. Steels them, gets caught and you're the bad guy? Nope. OOP, in her words your daughter has more stuff than all three of my kids combined comment 5. NTA. But I would like to add that the timing of her quick pregnancy is suspect. With her behavior of stealing your daughter's things and acting entitled to taking them, it feels like she hooked up with your brother for financial reasons. Your brother may consider requesting a paternity test if Slash when he decides to end the relationship.

Oh, O'OPA, my family thought the same thing. The baby does look exactly like my brother, so I do believe he is his, but you're probably onto something with the baby trapping. We knew her as a causal fling until she ended up pregnant. Comment six. She was using a fake name? And has a record? Holy shit, dash I was just going to say your NTA, but also like. While she's so much more evil than I expected, I'm so sorry you have to deal with this. OOP, not necessarily fake. Apparently she was married before the girl's dad and was telling us that the first husband's

last name was her maiden name. I'm honestly sick because I now know we know absolutely nothing about this woman who has had access to my home for the last year and a half. Mysterious Cow 3423 This story sounds very familiar but not for the reasons others are saying. Do the initials cost apply to this post at all? Oh, O.P, please message me comments seven. Look, I don't know if cost and op know each other and damn, do I want to, but if not, I think we need the story of cost anyway.

mysterious cow 3423 It's unfortunately her Update 1 Well this has certainly blown up but who am I to deny the people of what they want? Cost lore For obvious reasons I'm going to be a little vague with certain details for privacy reasons Mainly I don't want this crazy train coming back into my life and hopefully you'll understand why by the end So buckle up bitches this one is long and wild

And please don't judge me, we don't associate with any of these people anymore and haven't for over a decade. Also, I will say that she is a very pretty girl and has usually gotten whatever she wants from men so she's not used to hearing number 2005. When I was 18 my, then-boyfriend now husband, and I were invited to a house party hosted by a friend of a friend to celebrate graduation. We knew about half the people there and had been to the house a handful of times before. We were all hanging out in the basement and after, After a few drinks I went upstairs to use the bathroom and that's where I met Kost who was 14 at the time.

The bathroom door was open so I walked in and turned on the light but to my surprise there she was with some guy in the bathtub, doing things you typically wouldn't do in an unlocked room. I apologized and found a different bathroom. About an hour later she came downstairs where the rest of us were and locked in on my boyfriend and made a beeline for him. Keep in mind I am right next to him. She tries to sit on his lap and when he pushes her off of him she pops back up like a demented

jack in the box and immediately starts screeching about how she was just playing you aren't even hot and you could do so much better than her to him. We stayed another hour or so and left. A week later she was blowing up the guy's phone that she hooked up with telling him she was pregnant. When he didn't believe her, because honestly who would after just a week, she tried to press charges for RP. I do know my boyfriend and I both had to talk to a police officer officer because we were both there and I was the one that walked in on them. I don't know what happened after that, but the charges were eventually dropped. 2009, my husband and I are 22 and she is 18. We are now married and living on the East Coast because he's in the military. We come home for

his parents' Fourth of July party and get tasked with going to get more ice. He runs into pay and I'm standing by the ice chests outside waiting for him and guess who shows up. She walks straight up to me and says something along the lines of she's glad I finally learned my place and that her and my husband have been so happy together for the last year. She also made some very vulgar comments about their Sags life. I don't even have time to react to her when he comes back outside and she goes pale and then bright red. This crazy bish then has the audacity to look at my husband and ask him what he wants for dinner that night and tried to remind him of plans they have that weekend to go to the lake with her family while he just stands there staring at her like a dumbass and then asks if he knows her.

I absolutely lose it and almost piss myself from laughing as she stalks off. Once we are back to his parents, he gets a FB friend request from her and deletes it. Over the period of three days, she sends him four or five friend requests so he blocks her. We go back to NC the following week and forget all about her again. 2010, I am now seven months pregnant with our daughter and we fly back to our hometown one last time before she's born of course run into Koss again at Walmart. I know how it sounds, but we're from a town of about 5,000 people, so you kind of see everyone all the damn time whether you want to or not.

I'm noticeably pregnant as I'm about seven months long. I'm also only 5 feet 2 inches and at the time weighed about 115 pounds, so it was very clearly a baby bump. She is with her sister and they seem to be following us, but we try to ignore them. We are now checking out and again they are right behind us still acting like but in her defense she was 19-ish at the time. We are still ignoring them and her sister says fairly loudly he'll dump her now that she's fat.

We continue to ignore them and lead the store. Later that day a friend tells us to check Facebook and lo and behold there is a picture of me in the snack aisle with the caption when you catch your surrogate buying nothing but junk food and so many comments agreeing how horrible I am. This psycho had been telling everyone that I was the surrogate for her and my husband's baby. We filed and row the next day, 2018, we move back to our hometown and buy my family's farmland to start our own cattle business. Highly don't recommend if you like to be able to make and keep plans, see your family, or take vacations. As far as we know she has gotten married and is living her life away from us.

About six months into us being back, we get a letter in the mail from a family lawyer saying my husband needs to present himself for a paternity test and we were being sued for child support. Apparently the baby girl came out white and Kasa's husband was not. She told her husband that my husband had our pet her and that it was his baby. Charges were filed and thankfully we were still in North Carolina at the time of conception and the army is very meticulous about no where their soldiers are at all times. The RP charges were immediately dismissed as was the paternity test and child support. We filed another row and installed cameras all over our property. Her husband ended up adopting the baby and they stayed together.

2020, she makes the front page of our town paper. Apparently Koss had had another baby girl who also did not match her husband's skin tone. He kicked her and the kids out and one night she came back to his house. In full view of his security cameras, in her own car, with the kids and set his porch on fire. The husband got temporary custody of the girls for about two years while Koss was in jail. 2023, she gets the girls back and dips out of state. The husband files a police report and everyone is looking for her. Unfortunately the husband passes in a car accident the same year.

2025, I'm doomed scrolling on Reddit and see a story that sounds very familiar and here we are. Reasons I thought it was her from the other post, her and the girls ages. We knew she had a baby boy recently. She has a history of theft and immediately playing the victim when caught. We still have a few mutuals on FB, so I do see her posts from time to time and knew she moved in with the new guy, Ops' brother from the other post, about a year and a half ago. Well, I think that's the meat and potatoes of it. I'll be around later this afternoon to answer any questions.

I may have some of the dates off but hell, my memory is trash these days and I try not to think about her or any of those crazies. Comments where Ops has replied, Comment 1, her fixation on your husband is so scary. Hopefully she continues to leave you alone. I also hope her kids turn out okay because between the other story and this one it sounds like she is a many personal growth opportunity zoop. She has tried to reach him via social media a few times, but we don't really do FBE or anything like that anymore and just try to live pretty private lives. I really think part of it is jealousy because he's one of the few that never fell for her charms. Like I said, it's a very small town and she really is a pretty girl.

Comment two, be prepared, she's crazy and she'll come back when she reads the story on Reddit and realizes it's about her and maybe reads this too. Oop, we have enough to get another row at any time. We also have security cameras all over our property and a few dogs that are the embodiment of Wisha MF would comment three, as bats hit crazy as this chick is, I'm super glad to see you and your husband have stuck by each other's side. That part makes me happy for you. Oop, thank you. He's my best friend and has been since eighth grade. The crazier thing is he's not the only one she's latched on over the years, but I don't feel comfortable telling other people's stories. I'll get a hold of the other guy she's been obsessed with and see if he will allow me to tell his story on here. What was Coase like when growing up?

Was she displaying that kind of behavior? Oop, I agree with you 100%. But at what point do you grow up and see what you're going is absolutely insane? I do know her childhood wasn't great, they were pretty low income so they did struggle but I know her parents and her siblings and aside from the one sister, they are all really good people. One of her brothers owns a very successful trucking company that we actually have a contract with for our cattle business. Her other sister is a nurse at our local hospital.

Kos is the baby of the five of them and was kind of allowed to do whatever she wanted so I think that played into it too. Update 2, Coase Update. Hey y'all, this is probably going to be the last Coase update for a while. It's been a rough 48 hours between some issues we're having on the farm due to four days straight of rain and Coase finding the posts about her. I'll try to be brief but give you guys an update as to what's going on. I have been in contact with the Op from the first post and have permission to include a couple

updates from her situation as well. Coase has been arrested. Her girls are safe with Ops' brother and they are all back at his house. She found the posts and went feral with comments and even a post which included a picture of my husband she took from my Facebook that I have since had to deactivate. We called our local sheriff department about the harassment and learned she had an active warrant. I was able to get in touch with Op to find out exactly where she was and they contacted the law enforcement agency in that area and they went and got her.

We have pressed charges as well. Right now she's looking at stalking, harassment, child endangerment, resisting arrest, an assault on an officer. Among the charges she already had pending. I knew what might happen if I responded to Ops' post, but I do not regret reaching out to her or exposing her antics. What matters is everyone is safe and she is being held without bond. Update from Op, the girls are safe with my brother and he has all three children. He has been awarded temporary guardianship and will be getting them into counseling in the coming week. I tried to press charges but as the items never left my home, I was unable to. We will have the results of the paternity test next week,

as well, but no matter the outcome he will be trying to get full rights to my nephew. Update 3. Good morning all. I have a couple updates for you, but first we need to discuss some things. I appreciate all the love we are getting from this, but some of you need to check yourselves. I will not be posting pictures of her. I will not be linking articles. I will not be posting mugshots. I will not be posting her court records. While yes, all of this is public record and can be found online, it will also expose our names, address, and personal information. If you ask, you will be blocked. If I have to block enough people I will delete this account and then no one will get updates. Sorry to be an ass but this is our lives, our home, and I have to put us and

our children's safety first. I have also had a few questions on why we moved back. We've moved back, with all of this going on every time we came home. This farm has been in my family for over 120 years and I will not be giving that up over her. Now on to the updates. Koss is still in jail and will be held there until her court date in the coming months. After which she will be transferred back to where she was arrested to face charges there that include child endangerment, resisting arrest, and assault on an officer. We have had a few people ask if we are safe and yes we are.

We have security cameras that run 24-7 on all structures, barns, houses, sheds, garages, everything, out here both inside and out. And well, yes, part of the reason we have them installed was because of her. The main reason is we own a working cattle farm. Farm accidents happen all of the time and our insurance is a lot less if we have them so no. We're not just being paranoid like a few have hinted at. I mentioned in a comment that her brother owns a trucking company that we work closely with so I was able to fill him in on everything going.

He is talking to Upps' brother to take in the girls, and they have a family court hearing on Friday and will hopefully be living with their uncle soon. He is a really good guy and his wife is amazing. If they were anything like Koss, they would not be working for us, and I believe they are the girls' best option for a normal upbringing. Now on to the baby boy. Chase is the father.

He already has a lawyer and given the circumstances should be able to get full custody and writes to him going forward. I will update again after the hearing on Friday, as we will be going with him to help him get the girls. As far as I know Koss has not reached out to check on them since being arrested. Oh and no, her late husband's accident was not her doing. He was driving home one night after being at the bar and went off the road. He was found the next day and there were no signs of foul play. It was determined the most likely cause was he was intoxicated. An animal ran out in front of him and he swerved to miss it but hit a tree. Update four, hey y'all, it's been a minute. I don't know if anyone I'm even cares anymore, but I have a final update. The girls are

now in the custody of their uncle, Koss's brother, and his wife. They started school this fall and doing absolutely great. They are a little behind but are so smart and catching up quick. Baby boy is with his dad and also doing great. Koss is locked up and will be for at least the next three to five years. She pled guilty to a lot which expedited the process but did reduce the jail time. She signed her rights away to the baby but not the girls. That is still ongoing unfortunately. Comment where OP has replied, comment. Good update, OP. I hope things will start getting better for you and that other OP now that cost is no longer an issue. I hope the girls aren't hurt by any of this and live a much better and happier life.

Oop, like I said they were a little behind academically and they do have a few behavioral issues but all in all they are really good kids. They are doing so much better than anyone expected and are in therapy. We even had them out to the house a couple times to see the new calves and they really enjoyed themselves.
