More details to this question:
An old friend was using my bank account for her father to send her money, I no longer talk to the girl and she still had money sent to my account and now wants the money. They are all money orders written out to me in my name. Can I get in trouble with the law for not giving it to them ?

You already KNOW the answer. Its not intended to be your money so why would you expect some entitlement to keep it. If its sent in money order fashion, that also means YOU depositied it, so you need to send all the money to her or the sender and refuse any further MO from either.
