Youngblood, a minor, sold a wrecked Ford to Blakensopp, an adult, for $350. Blakensopp took possession of the car. Unknown to Blakensopp, Youngblood took the car back and sold it to another purchaser for $400. Youngblood was charged with theft. Was Youngblood guilty of stealing the car from Blakensopp? Explain. Solution Youngblood already sold the car to Blackensoop with $350 and the Blackensoop had taken the possession. So it simply implies that the Blackensoop is the physical owner of the car. Again the Youngblood had sold the same car to another purchaser with $400 without the knowledge of Blackensoop. One argument may be here that, whether the legal ownership transfered to Blackensoop or not ? If Yes then the youngblood is a guilty of stealing the car otherwise not. .
