Legal Question in Criminal Law in Virginia

My mother is 84 (lives in NC); her home is in me and my sister's name (on the deed). We have just discovered a grandson that is living with her is on drugs and has stolen and forged 2 checks. She is hesitating about making him leave; can we have him removed from the home as we are on the deed?
