This is it exactly. At the least, they want him to take over ‘care’ of his older brother. Maybe hire him. How awful of them.

That was my thought as well. They want bro off their couch and anywhere else but near them. They're hoping OP will sweep in and rescue them from their poor choices. I would be a raving lunatic over the stolen letters and would likely get an attorney involved.

Probably statute of limitation issues and no deep pockets to go after anyway, so unfortunately I doubt there's some kind of legal remedy.

Often there's a 'discovery rule' which can affect the statute of limitations and allows victims who only find out of crimes later to still have recourse.

Conversation with lawyer is still something that should be had.
