Steal from the homeless girl

My ex boyfriend's grandmother Lynn passed 12/4/18, she has 3 grown up kids. her will granted a 1980's lazy daze rv to her friend Pennie. Pennies is in a residential medical facility and since she has no use for it she wants to give it to me. The rv is still in the possession of Lynn's children who initially told me "hell no, you aren't getting it" then according to my ex boyfriend he heard them discussing it and deciding to lie and say they put $1100 into it after Lynn died and that they want that reimbursed , they know my situation and know I have no way of paying that
...the rv doesn't even have a battery in it they have not put a dime into it.
I am currently living in my truck. I have NO money but I am desperate to acquire the rv to have a safe place to visit with my daughter....please tell me....do I have any options?

The RV was bequeathed to Pennie via the testator's will.

Neither the family nor do you have the ability to do anything other than dictated by the will.

I suggest you avoid any temptation to acquire something that isn't legally yours.

If Pennie wants to assign her interest in the estate to you, then you can take appropriate legal action in the probate court.

So if I get a statement from Pennie(can it be an email?) stating that she wishes to give me the rv what do I do next? I have no idea if there are lawyers involved with her estate all I know is that here oldest son is executor. Do I file something at my local court house?

If Pennie was bequeathed the rv and in turn she wishes to give the rv to me, does that not make it potentially legally mine?

You will need a formal assignment, signed by Pennie, and probably notarized. Only an attorney you retain (or she retains) can properly draft it for you. If the personal representative of the estate refuses to honor the assignment, you'll have to take action through the probate court. It will not be "legally mine" (yours) until title is transferred to you.

Thank you so much! Last question... Is there a name or certain type of formal assignment form ?

Your attorney (or Pennie's) will know what form to use.
