I am truly sorry that your daughter is learning so early about the dark side of human nature at such an early age, but there is something bothering me here.

May I ask how you are dealing with the fact that your daughter went into this girl's backpack without permission? In this case the girl did take her property, but what if she had not? Did she only look in this specific girl's backpack or did she look through others? Did she suspect this girl of being the thief?

In my opinion the end does not justify the means. It would indeed be very rare that a good friend of your daughter's would have purchased the same wallet without mentioning it to her, but what if she had and the teacher had walked in while your daughter was in someone else's backpack with their wallet in her hand? It is very possible she would have been labled the thief.
