I had one stolen. I asked someone to hold onto it for me for a while when I wasn't so stable, and then they got mad at me about something and wouldn't give it back, nor a small tv I had loaned them. It weighs on me a little because it's out there and I don't know who has it, but it was purchased by my dearly departed mother, so I'm probably off the hook.

of the hook for what? If it is used in a crime you won't be responsible for anything. I don't advocate being reckless with potentially dangerous items but I do advocate being realistic. If someone steals a jug of pool acid from me and uses it to commit a crime I would feel bad for the victim. I wouldn't feel responsible though. The criminal is the person who is responsible.
