The true owner never relinquished title to the goods, and even an innocent purchaser who acquired the goods in good faith and for value would be obliged to return the goods to the owner. Title to stolen goods never left the true owner, and possession can always be regained by that owner if the goods can be found, no matter in whose possession they may be at the time.
