Mother Steals Daughter’s ID To Be School Cheerleader
WENDY Brown is a cheerleader at Ashwaubenon High School, Green Bay, Wisconsin.
She’s one of the girls, shooting the breeze about which of the hot new act New Kids On The Block she fancies, chillin’ with Vanilla ice and watching Baywatch.
Wendy Brown is 15. She was born 33 years ago. To Wendy Brown it’s always 1990.
Wendy Brown wanted to be a cheerleader, so she enrolled at a school and passed her self off as her 15-year-old daughter.
Brown is way cool. She scores a cheerleader’s locker, attended a pool party at the cheerleading coach’s house and pretends she is Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman, the wicked new movie.
One high school worker, a Kim Demeny, says Brown is not good at maths.
Brown’s fraud is only noticed when the $134.50 cheque she gives to the cheerleading coach for her uniform bounces.
Now rumbled, Brown faces an identity theft charge which could lead to six years in prison and a $10,000 (£5,580) fine.
It’s terrific story, and one that makes Anorak wonder if it is too late for us to return to school, perhaps as captain of the football team, or a sergeant in the Combined Cadet Force..?
