29-year-old woman pleads not guilty to posing as high school student in NJ

Hyejeong Shin, the 29-year-old woman who pretended to be a teenager to enroll in a New Jersey high school, entered a not guilty plea to charges that carry a maximum penalty of five years in prison. Her lawyers said she was trying to recreate the sense of safety she had felt as a student at a Massachusetts boarding school. Ms. Shin, who is not a U.S. citizen but is in the country legally, hopes to return home to South Korea after the case concludes.
