Like 14 years... · 10:19pm Feb 23rd, 2022
Stolen identities are often taken from dead children.
I supposed, that is to avoid an awkward situation, in which the person shows up after, like, 14 years wondering just what you've been doing with their name all these years.
They typically aren't pleased to find out what you've been up to.
All I can say in my defense is,
"You've literally been gone since 2008."
Luckily they already have a new name, so they weren't too upset, just annoyed.
