Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida
A person I know was trying to purchase an illegal substance from an individual. That individual did not have anything to sell and ran off with the money. Because the transaction started out as an illegal one, does this person have any legal recourse against the individual who stole the money without reprisal.

It is still theft and a crime. The police will still investigate this type of crime, but it is best to be honest with them when you report it.
