It's very disturbing that parents or kids somehow believe in certain situations they do not have to abide by the law. I have chewed out parents before who tell me they know their kids drink so they let them have booze at parties at their houses because that way they know where the kids are. Stupid logic. If for not other reason than to get it off your chest, by all means go to the police. I doubt very much if you come in out of the blue (and out of concern) and relate what happened, that the police would believe for a second, any story to the contrary about unwanted touching. By letting the police know, I think it will help if the father with the credit card tries to stiff you. I'd like to echo what someone else said, and as the father of a 17 year old, thanks for acting in the manner you did.
