NEW BRUNSWICK — The 29-year-old woman who enrolled in high school for nearly a week was lonely and looking to relive happier days in high school, according to her lawyer. Hyejeong Shin, 29, a citizen of South Korea, attended classes for four days at New Brunswick High School in January interacting with other students and attending classes. When Shin could not provide proper documentation, she was charged with one count of third-degree providing a false government document. During a court hearing on Monday, her lawyer Darren Gelber said Shin had a rough time in recent months following a divorce and was seeking the safety and good times she had had while attending a boarding school in Massachusetts, according to New York Times coverage of the hearing.
