An Ohio teen who posed as a state senator spoke to a class of high schoolers about his “civil service” — and school officials only caught on when the real legislator showed up weeks later for his own lecture.
Izaha Akins, 18, faces felony charges for the December deception at Mohawk High School. The teen — who claimed to have pulled off the stunt to shed light on lax school security — used his own name but said he was appointed to take over for Sen. David Burke, whom he said resigned due to health issues.
“I was duping to prove a point: that these kinds of things can happen,” he told the Blade newspaper. (http://www.toledoblade.com/Courts/2016/02/20/Man-who-pretended-to-be-senator-charged.html)“They could easily have Googled me and they didn’t.”
Akins toured the Sycamore school on Dec. 15, talked to an American government class and was even chauffeured around in a car provided by a local dealership.
But the school only realized the “senator” was a fake when the real Sen. Burke showed up in January to visit.
Akins was arrested Feb. 10 and is charged with two felonies: impersonating a peace officer and telecommunications fraud.
The teen’s grand scheme kicked off last year when Akins learned Burke was scheduled to give a January talk to the high school’s government class.
The teen called the teacher, Henry Stobbs, and claimed Burke had fallen ill. Akins said he was the new state Senator for Marysville — he called himself the “youngest state senator ever” — and told the skeptical teacher he’d be happy to speak to the class in absence of his “colleague.”
Stobbs, who asked Akin why he hadn’t read about the appointment in local media, dropped his doubt when the teen said he was the second pick to replace the senator, and only got the job with the top candidate declined the offer.
Akins then asked if they could push up the date for the January visit, and the school agreed to move it to December.
Authorities said local dealership Reineke Ford provided a car and driver for the day to the supposed legislator. When Akins showed up on Dec. 15, signed into the office with his own I.D., got a tour of the school and then made his way to the government class, where he gave a rousing speech about politics, Mohawk Schools Superintendent Ken Ratliff said.
“The presentation was about being active in politics, political processes. Everyone thought it was legit, bought into it, including the teacher,” he told the newspaper.
