When 33-year-old Wendy Brown showed up for high school cheerleader practice, a couple of the girls noticed she looked a little old for 15, but no one said anything. "She did look a little insignificantly older, but you didn't want to question it," student Spencer Corpus told CBS News. "You just go aw, alright, whatever."
It turns out Brown, who has a criminal background involving identity theft, was posing as her daughter to pass herself off as a student at Ashwaubenon High near Greenbay, Wis. The plot sounds like something taken right out of a teen high school movie, but instead of ending on a big kiss, this plot ended with an arrest.
Brown was discovered when she failed to show up for school for four consecutive days and the check for her cheerleader uniform bounced.
When school officials investigated Brown's background, they found that her daughter was still living in Pahrump, Nevada.
