(Everett, Washington) Here's a case where many people were fooled.
From HeraldNet.com:
Corpuz was booked into the Snohomish County Jail on $150,000 bail on suspicion of child rape.An Everett woman who posed as a teenage boy was arrested Sunday for allegedly molesting a 14-year-old girl who believed the older woman was her boyfriend.
Lorelei Josephine Corpuz, 30, lived for more than a year as a 17-year-old boy named "Mark," according to papers filed in Everett District Court.
As "Mark," Corpuz persuaded the girl's family to let "Mark" live in their home as the girl's boyfriend. Corpuz claimed to be an orphan, police alleged.
It wasn't until police arrested Corpuz on Sunday on an unrelated matter that the girl and her family learned that "Mark" was a woman - and almost twice the age they were led to believe, according to court papers.
That's when officers were told that Corpuz allegedly had beaten and sexually assaulted the girl.
