Treva J. Throneberry (born May 18, 1969, in Wichita Falls, Texas) is a convicted American con artist who spent most of her twenties pretending to be a teenager. She made numerous false claims of sexual abuse, including that she was a victim of satanic ritual abuse to gain money. During this time she traveled the United States, residing in foster homes, colleges and with any family that would take her in, using false identities. Her father, Carl Throneberry, said: "She's just going cross-country and using different names and receiving welfare."〔 As of 2003, she falsely claims to be a woman named Brianna Stewart who was born in 1981. Arrested in 2001 and charged with fraud and perjury, her true identity was established by DNA testing. Court-appointed psychologists deemed Throneberry to not be delusional, and that she knew what she was doing. She was convicted and was given a three-year sentence at a correctional center in Gig Harbor, Washington. Throneberry was released after serving two years and three months of her sentence.〔〔 ==Early life and education== Treva Joyce Throneberry was born on May 18, 1969 in Wichita Falls, Texas to Carl and Patsy Throneberry.〔 Her father had dropped out of school in the sixth grade and, as an adult, "didn't know how to spell."〔http://www.texasmonthly.com/story/day-treva-throneberry-disappeared/page/0/7〕 Her family later moved to Electra, Texas. Throneberry moved from Electra to Wichita Falls, Texas in December 1985 when she was fifteen years old, and enrolled in the local high school. She began to tell stories about how she had been abducted and raped by Satanists. In May 1986, Throneberry threatened to kill herself and was sent to a local mental hospital, Wichita Falls State Hospital, for five months.〔http://www.texasmonthly.com/story/day-treva-throneberry-disappeared/page/0/1〕 While there, doctors said her condition was a characterological disorder and she was given Trilafon, Tofranil and Xanax.〔 She refused to speak with her family when they visited. When she was discharged October 1986, she was transferred to Lena Pope Home for Troubled Girls, a residential treatment center in Fort Worth, Texas. While at Lena Pope, her therapist set a goal for her: to develop and maintain interpersonal relationships.〔 She kept a distance from her family, only sending a letter now and then. Throneberry graduated from Arlington Heights High School in Fort Worth, Texas in 1987 and moved to Arlington, Texas. In Arlington, she rented her own apartment and worked as a hotel maid.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Treva Throneberry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
