Mom Takes Daughter's Identity

(Green Bay, Wisconsin) A 33-year-old local mom with a history of identity theft, Wendy Brown, has been accused of stealing her 15-year-old daughter's identity, enrolling in high school, and trying out for the cheerleading team.

Wendy Brown was charged Friday in Wisconsin with identity theft for allegedly using her daughter's documentation to become a student at Ashwaubenon High School.

Officials said the woman stopped attending school after the first day, prompting a truancy investigation that led to the discovery of her true identity.

Brown's daughter is living with her father in Nevada. Police said Brown told them she wanted to get her high school diploma and become a cheerleader because she had no childhood.

School officials said Brown looked older but acted like a teen.

Frankly, I would guess that she is older than many of the teachers.
