A 29-year-old woman apologized in court earlier
this week after being discovered faking her age
and enrolling as a student at New Brunswick High
School.
The woman, Hyejeong Shin, was discovered just
one week into her new high school adventure when
the administration figured out her birth certificate
was fake and she was not 16-years-old.
Shin's attorney, Darren Gelber, said the Rutgers
University graduate knows she made a mistake
and that it was her longing for the sorts of
friendships she had in high school that made her
decide to do it.
She entered a not guilty plea Monday to charges
that could carry a maximum penalty of five years
in prison.
Shin, according to her attorney, is a South Korean
citizen, who came to the US alone when she was
16 to attend a private boarding school.
He claimed that she was lonely and missed that
kind of atmosphere and opted to pursue it again at
New Brunswick High School.
'At no time was anyone or any student in danger
and this entire case is more about my client
wanting to return to a place of safety and
welcoming and an environment that she looks back
on fondly and nothing more,' said Gelber.
He added that the situation is 'very bizarre' and
'may be difficult for people to understand.'
'There are personal issues that she needs to
resolve,' said Henry Hong Jung, another attorney.
'She's been away from home a long time.'
'I'm not psychologist, but but separated from her
family and being in a different country - as well as
a couple of other stressors in her life - may have
caused her to act very uncharacteristically,' said
Gelber.
However, the recently-divorced adult woman's
deception led to a grand jury indictment and third-
degree offense for false documents and hindering
her own prosecution.
Her family, who are still in South Korea, sent their
New York attorney to her court proceedings
Monday.
Shin and Gelber are hoping that she will be
accepted into the pre-trial intervention program and
avoid serving time.
New Brunswick Police previously released a
statement in which they said that, based on their
investigation, nothing had revealed that Shin's
intentions for enrolling at New Brunswick High
School were to harm or otherwise bring violence
into the community.
Students at Brunswick told CBS News that while
Shin was at the high school, she asked some of
the students to hang out.
'Some of the girls I know, the girl did ask them to
hang out at Commercial Avenue, but they never
showed up, and she started acting weird with
them. It's scary because you never know what
could happen,' one girl said.
