So the situation as I understand it goes as follows. A few months ago my mother died, and I moved my best friend into my house A) to help me cope with the situation and B) to help me cover bills while things are in limbo. The house is not mine, the executor of the estate has said 'her wish was that you live in that house until you don't want to anymore, and then it's ours.', so I'm sort of on eggshells. He came to me one night telling me he was going to travel about 7 hours away and pick up this girl he grew up with who was mentally handicapped and bring her to the house, and I informed him in no way was she coming here.

He dropped it that night but then somehow the next day she was 'staying in a crack den' with her mother about 30 minutes away, and he was going to go get her out of there. Again, I informed him, you can go get her all you want, but this is too much drama and I don't know her and this isn't my house at the moment. She is not spending the night here. He pleaded with me that she would only spend one night and that she'd be gone in the morning, but I knew better than that because we both had work in the morning, and all of this is way too sudden to make any sense or be worth the drama.

This girl has ended up living with her mother somewhere for a month or so, but it's been known that as far as the court is concerned, she is a runaway. She is a ward of the state to her aunt, and her aunt is not happy that she's run off. I've tried to constantly reiterate to my friend that she doesn't have any actual legal rights as far as I understand it, she's under guardianship with the aunt, the mom lost rights somewhere along the way, and if she's hiding out here it's only a matter of time before the aunt takes her back.

Yesterday they were all happy because the aunt had arranged a voice call, and they thought oh she's just going to let this girl go and its too much trouble to deal with, but what i've been told by them is no she's going to be put into a home if she keeps trying to run away.

I don't think there's anything he can do. He's tried to present marrying her to stop it, I've told him that will just get annulled. I feel like there is nothing he can do but let this thing go, but he guilt tripped me yesterday about a friend of ours who married a mentally handicapped girl. His exact words were 'no one told joe not to marry megan'. and my response was that 'megan's parents WANTED her to marry joe, this isn't that.' I don't really know what to tell him anymore, but even after he's said 'i'm not talking to her anymore' he's still on the phone with her 24/7. Is this something where she's just gonna get snatched up and taken to a home? Can he screw himself over by trying to interfere in this?
