A University of Minnesota student is dropping out of a race for a City Council position after the university’s daily found that he lied about attending Princeton.
Charles Carlson, who also faked a British accent and, actually, a British life, apparently falsified a transcript from Princeton and Phillips Exeter, but was found out when the bullshit mounted too high (ref.: “[Hillary] Clinton shared a crème brûlée torte with him [in England]“).
Sure it seems ridiculous, but Carlson joins a number of other fakes that love the Princeton name. Remember Nava? And maybe you’ve heard of Princeton’s biggest gaffe – admitting con-man James Hogue, a.k.a. Alexi Santana.
Additionally, the article reports that Carlson said he has “schizophrenia affective disorder, which impacts an individual’s ability to accurately judge reality.” Guess he should’ve just said he worked for the Prince.
