Love can drive people to do some truly unbelievable things, and one Oklahoma man’s recent stunt proves just how far some will go in the name of romance. What began as a simple plan to see the woman he loved quickly turned into a story straight out of a crime comedy. Complete with a disguise, forged documents, and an ending that he never saw coming.
Authorities say 41-year-old Aaron Oldham showed up at the Oklahoma County Detention Center claiming to be a lawyer. His goal? To visit his girlfriend, 41-year-old Christine Hillier, who was locked up on a Nevada warrant. Oldham even carried paperwork and confidently told jail staff he needed to meet with his “client” to handle legal matters.
Somehow, it worked. The Oklahoma officers believed his story and escorted him to the attorney visitation booth. A spot strictly reserved for actual lawyers. Once inside, Oldham and Hillier filled out forms, shared hugs, and even snuck in a few kisses. It wasn’t long before the so-called “legal meeting” caught the attention of investigators who quickly realized something wasn’t adding up.
Oklahoma Man’s Not-So-Smooth Cover-Up Lands Him In Hot Water
According to KFOR News, once the truth eventually surfaced, Oldham was charged with false personation after admitting he had posed as a lawyer. However, despite trying to brush it off as a simple misunderstanding, that excuse ultimately didn’t hold up in the end.
“It’s a silly misunderstanding and I will never interact with that system again, hopefully,” said Oldham. “I’m a very law-abiding person.”
Meanwhile, officials confirmed that a staff member had failed to verify his credentials, and as a result, that employee has since been disciplined. Furthermore, everyone working in the attorney visitation area has now been retrained to ensure that future “romantic visits” don’t slip through the cracks again.
However, here’s the kicker. Oldham actually believed his visit was under the protection of “attorney-client privilege.” Unfortunately for the Oklahoma Romeo, that legal safeguard only applies to real lawyers, not love-struck impostors. The rule has existed for centuries to keep clients’ conversations confidential, not to protect stolen kisses behind bars.
In the end, Oldham’s grand act of devotion landed him in the same kind of trouble his girlfriend was already facing. His plan to bring them closer together only ended with him in handcuffs, facing criminal charges of his own. Love might make people do crazy things. However, this time, it made one Oklahoma man a cautionary tale.
