Who owned the property? If it was your daughter's, then no theft occurred. If it was your property, then it might be considered theft. But since your daughter was involved in removing it, I would be very careful about trying to pursue this criminally, since she might need to be charged as well. There is obviously more to this than a few items of personal property. Maybe you should try to get everyone together to discuss this.
