What theft crimes, if any, has Mike committed?
SAFECO was a road construction firm whose employees belonged to the Teamster's Local Union. Mike, the union treasurer, collected members' dues money and deposited it in the Union's bank account. One day, Mike's wife needed an urgent liver transplant and Mike had to come up with the $10,000 insurance deductible immediately. Mike told the doctor, "I know where I can borrow the money," and he went to the bank and withdrew $10,000 of the Union's money. After the bank, Mike went to his mother's house. Mike told his mother she needed to put the title of her house in Mike's name because the hospital wanted to make sure that Mike "had enough money." Mike's mother transferred title to her house to Mike. On the way back to the hospital, Mike saw a woman carrying beautiful flowers: Mike wrenched the flowers from the woman's hands as he ran past. A police officer caught up to Mike and arrested him. What will be an ideal response?
