  Speaker 1: posing as a teenager at a New York City high
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: school for two weeks let's go to News twelve. At
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: the report, please.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Twenty eight year old woman was impersonating a teenager. She
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: successfully enrolled at this school, and her name is Casey Classen. Now,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: according to the criminal complaint, Classen is facing criminal impersonation
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: and trespassing charges. Court record show she pled not guilty
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: to both. The document goes on to say on April thirteenth,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: she enrolled as a student at Westchester Square Academy under
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: the name Chamara Rashad with the birthday March eight, twenty ten,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: which would make her sixteen years old. The principal then
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: saw a Facebook page with her photo in a different
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: birthday and confronted her about it. He first asked her
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: for her information. She said, my name is Shamara Rashad.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: I'm sixteen years old. I'm from Ohio. I came to
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: New York with my sister. Then he showed her the
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Facebook page and asked if that was her. She said, yes,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: my real name is Casey Klen. My real date of
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: birth is July twenty ninth, nineteen ninety seven.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: I'm not Shamara Rashad. I'm not sixteen years old.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: I lied about my identity because my friend forced me
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: to she was using me to receive more public assistance.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: First of all, you should have known she was old
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: because she had a Facebook page. Facebook page, Okay, And
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: I feel Casey was on YouTube and she came across
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: the fact that Andrew Garfield played Peter Parker when he
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: was twenty nine.
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: Yes, the twenty nine year old playing a seventeen year old.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: I feel like Casey was on X and saw someone
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: post house Stacy Dash was twenty eight playing a seventeen
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: year old and clueless. I feel like Casey was watching
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: a breakfast club and if you would full force to
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: the good Brother's full force dropping the flute bomb for
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: full force. I feel like she was watching them discuss
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: how they were all in their late twenties early thirties
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: playing the role of high school teenagers in the house party.
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: I feel like she saw those things and got a
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: bright idea, and that bright idea was to pose as
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: a sixteen year old high school student named Shamara Rashad. Okay,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: she did all of that allegedly so her friend could
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: receive more public assistance benefits. Times is so hard that
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: you got people willing to pose as high school students
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: so they can get more food stamps, more medicaid. Maybe
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: just some temporary assistance in the form of cash commonly
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: called welfare. Maybe she needs some assistance with housing and utilities.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know what she needed. I don't know what
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: her friend needs. I just know they needed some type
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: of public assistance, and she was willing to pose as
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: a sixteen year old to get some Just what k
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: type of fraud did you commit when you were trying
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: to get that type of stuff back in the day?
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: Credit card I was.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: I was real heavy on them credit cards.
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: I can look at her credit card one time and
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: the all sixteen digits on the front and a little
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: CBB code.
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: Okay, okay, okay, okay okay.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Now I read another story in The New York Post
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: where Casey says she spent three years in a psych ward.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: She says she fled an abusive marriage and struggled with
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: an eating disorder and that landed her in a psych ward.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: She clearly suffers from some severe mental health issues. Someone
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: who knows her, who goes by the last name Rogers,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: told The New York Post that they last communicated with
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Casey in twenty eighteen, and they said they feared that
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: the young woman had been human trafficked and may have
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: been sent to the high school to recruit others.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: She just a mule.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: She a mule for public assistance and possibly for human trafficking.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Desperate times called for desperate measures. Okay, Casey said back
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: when she was twenty five, she lost cost the custody
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: of her two year old daughter because of her financial issues.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Financial issues will lead people to do something to scrange
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: for a piece of change, okay, and losing your daughter
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: definitely will. And that's why America is a failed project.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: We don't have resources to take care of the most
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: vulnerable amongst us on any level. Casey needs to be
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: receiving high levels of psychiatric treatment and her basic needs
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: should be taken care of. Hell, there should be some
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: type of support for her two year old as well.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: But when you have people like this just roaming the
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: streets with no assistance, can't get no snap, That's when
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: they snap and usually end up risking it all and
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: enrolling as a sixteen year old high school student when
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: you are twenty eight. I have empathy for her, but
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: you know who I don't have empathy for the bronx Okay, look,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: I feel it in my heart and my spirit in
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: my bones that she could only get this off anywhere
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: in Florida and the Bronx. Okay, yes, she deserves the
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: biggest Hea hallware enrolling in Westchester Square Academy. But the
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: powers that be at Westchester Square Academy y'all deserved the
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: biggest Hea Hall too for allowing her to enroll. How
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: the hell did this slip through the cracks for two weeks?
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Does she look young? Yes, but she also looks a
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: little weathered. Okay, just the fact that she told y'all
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: she was sixteen. Just because she's frail with glasses doesn't
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: mean she's sixteen.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: And it took Facebook to catch her? What gave it away?
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Her throwback Thursday from when she was sixteen in twenty fourteen. Huh, Westchester,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: what did y'all think when you saw those crows feet
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: behind the glasses? You thought she was scratched from failing
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: a driver's test two weeks?
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: Two weeks she was at that school.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: I know for a fact when she sat in those
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: timest desk, her knees sounded like popcorn popping in the microwave.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: And you know the reality the reality that nobody noticed
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: she was twenty eight. You know why nobody noticed that
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: because every student in the Bronx already looks exhausted from life.
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: It's just true.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: You know what, Let's give Casey Classen and the administration
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: at Westchester Square Academy to sweeps out of the Hamiltons.
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: Oh no, you are the doggee of the day.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: The dog gee ah the day yee.
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: That's what it was. It didn't come to me till
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: the end, but that's what it was.
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: You literally said, every student in the Bronx, that's what
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: came to me.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: I got little cousins and they don't look stressed out right.
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: That's what came to me at the end. That's why
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: she was able to get not all of them.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: What did somebody from the Bronx do it?
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: First of all, you don't watch the news.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Then if you watch, all you gotta do is watch
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the news and you will see that the craziest people
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: of America come from the Bronx. And all the Florida
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: watched the watch the local news here in New York
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: just one time. Most of the stories are from the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Bronx that are crazy, I'm telling you, but it came
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: to me at the end. That's why nobody noticed, because
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: all there's a lot of students in the Bronx that
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: already look exhausted from life.
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: Nah, but that's wold do we got a picture that shorty?
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: Because like for her to look she got to do
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: that for two weeks? You said, two weeks k C.

• 8:29
  Speaker 3: thought exactly what I said.
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: Okay, okay, So real question for all the single people
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: out there, can you even afford to date? Because, according
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: to a new report, nearly half of single Americans say
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: dating is no longer financially worth it. So researchers they
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: found that The average date night in America costs between
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: two hundred to two hundred and fifty dollars just for
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: one date that included dinner and transportation, just getting ready. Okay,
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: everything's gone up, restaurant prices, ticket date ticket, movie tickets,
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: dating out, subscriptions. So people are like, I'm just not
• 9:02
  Speaker 6: dating anymore. They're scaling it back and they're swapping it
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: out for cooking at home, maybe walks in the park.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: But you can't do that if you're dating r because.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: It depends on where you are. Y'all could do a
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: first date walking apart, that's cute.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: You can't.
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: You can have a picnic. Yeah, yeah, you.
