“... used a forklift to gingerly pick up the car, carry it down the block, and set it in another spot and then went about their business.”

Nice!

Related to paving, a driveway paving company ran a commercial, stating “we come to where you need us”. Why say that? Would they expect us to bring our driveway to their place for repaving?

He’d better watch out… Australia might ban forklifts retroactively.

A creative prosecutor may call this entrapment and kidnapping. I’m sure there are some in the US that would.

Because everyone has a fork lift laying around at home.

She’ll insist she lives with him.

It looks like she does, or she did. An ex- wife or girlfriend. Few women would just march onto an unknown property, "ha[ve] a shower and put on clothes she found inside." Those were probably her clothes, and this was an ongoing domestic dispute.
