I need to know if anyone is familiar with the animal cruelty laws in Michigan.

A friend killed himself, and in his suicide note he requested I be contacted by the police to pick up his WDB. It has been in my possession for about a week. I recieved a call from the family and they would like the snake back in order to kill it and turn it into a trophy. I know this would be against a friend's wishes and do not want to turn the snake over to them. However, they have been through a lot and I do feel sorry for them and don't really want to string this out into a big battle, but I do need to know what rights I have. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.
