This is not a banking law question. Generally, everyone on an account has the ability to take 100% of the funds. If the funds in the account did not belong to the daughter (you did not tell us), your remedy is to file a lawsuit. If you want to go as far as calling the police, they may very well see it is a civil issue, not criminal.

Joint bank accounts belong to everyone of them, so she broke no laws in taking the money.
