A mother disguises herself as a student to help her daughter with a strange matter
The American police arrested a 33-year-old woman who infiltrated a high school in the clothes of a student in order to involve her daughter in a fight with her daughter, at Arlington High School in New York State, United States.
Valerie Albello was arrested after the violent fight, which was recorded on the school's video cameras, and police said that in the video the mother, who was wearing a blue jacket, could be heard helping her daughter to beat in the fight.
According to CBS, the woman's size and school uniform allowed her to slip through a large group of students entering the building.
The woman was charged with criminal trespass in the third degree and endangering the welfare of a child (both misdemeanors).
In a similar incident, the US police arrested a 29-year-old woman who used a fake birth certificate to enroll in a local high school and attend classes with teenage students before she was discovered after only four days.
The woman, identified as Heejung Shin, 29, faces one count of third degree for providing a false government document with the intent to verify age or identity, the New Brunswick Police Department said in a press release issued after the woman's arrest on Tuesday.
Sheen is accused of submitting a false birth certificate to the New Brunswick Board of Education in an attempt to attend public high school classes as a "juvenile student," according to the police department.
CBS New York reported that the administration at New Brunswick High School circulated a letter explaining Shin's arrest and the charges against her, which also included her photo, adding that she attended classes with other students for only four days.
A student told CBS New York that Sheen sent text messages to several of his classmates asking them to go out "(to hang out)".
The mother of one of the students expressed concern about the woman being able to successfully register and attend classes without the staff and security being aware of her age.
While the police investigation was taking place, the principal of the school reportedly said that officials would review their registration process and identify ways to better identify fake documents in the future, according to the station.
The police did not explain the reasons why the woman did this strange act, even if it was criminal intentions related to drugs, for example.
