Nobella, I'm so sorry about all this. I wish I could do something to help on the legal end, but I am only a 3rd year law student, not an attorney yet. However, I think there are at least 3 attorneys here on YT, so maybe they will see this and can at least offer another legal perspective.
Although I don't know all the details, I still don't understand how they can take your parent's house until your brother in law has been found guilty of the alleged crime and even if he is found guilty, I still think they have trouble taking it unless they can prove your parents knew about or participated in something illegal having to do with the house.
Also, the only thing this should be affecting is your parent's ability to put the house up for collatteral for a loan, other than that, their credit and yours should be fine. Keep trying, maybe there are other avenues to help the financial situation. You know the saying ..........when God closes one door he opens another.
