Pardon my ignorance but I don't think that's right.    Lets say person A steals a $100 jacket from person B    Person A then sells the jacket to person C for $100    Person B claims the jacket is stolen and wants it back.     There's still a net loss. Either one of the people will lose $100. Person A doesn't lose anything.    Why should person C willingly lose $100? What gives person B the right to not be a victim against person C?
