A 34-year-old woman who lied about her age and
has been parading as a 15-year-old girl, Charity Johnson, has been
handed a jail time of 85 days by a Longview, Texas, USA, court.
The
sentence was part of a plea bargain agreement between Johnson and
prosecutors after she pleaded guilty to the crime of perjury.
Johnson
who wanted to earn a high school diploma, attended school as a teenage
girl, while pretending to be an orphan and was adopted by a kindhearted
family.
Police say the adult lady was arrested
for impersonating a high school student after spending almost a whole
year enrolled as a sophomore.
According to ABC
News, Johnson attended classes at New Life Christian School in Longview.
Her fantasy life came to an end after her foster family began to
suspect that she was not who she claimed to be.
The
family called police, who ordered the woman to stay away from her
adoptive parents’ home, having found out that she had used the name
Charite Stevens, and began to go to school after posing as an orphaned
15-year-old girl and she even had a Facebook account posing as a tenth
grader.
While pleading guilty, Johnson allegedly said that she was abused by her biological father after her mother died.
