After every conceivable doctor, therapist, program, medicine, court (in some cases), etc. nothing worked. In fact I think it emboldened him to get even more brazen as time passed.
When he was 19 I said enough is enough and threw him out. He is having his struggles but this is the bed he made. He had a billion chances to get his act together and make things right but that simply did not interest him. He's my son and I love him but I have a wife and daughter to protect. He's 23-years-old now and he better start figuring things out on his own.
Should your family throw your brother out? That's a you decision. I simply wish you and your family the best. Nobody deserves this.

Thank you so much for sharing, I really value everything you said - I'm so sorry you've been through similar and I really hope one day your son sees how much you love him and figures it all out, just as I hope the same for my brother. Wishing you and your family well!
