An undercover police officer used his fake identity to deceive a woman into a 19-year relationship in which they became partners and had a child together, the Guardian can reveal.

The officer concealed his real identity from the woman for the duration of that period, never telling her his real occupation, and using his fictitious identity on the birth certificate of their son.

In 2020, after the couple were engaged to be married, the woman discovered that her fiance, whom she believed to be a businessman, was in fact a police officer who had subjected her to a sophisticated deception lasting almost two decades.

    Your name is what you want people to call you. What’s on the birth certificate is irrelevant. Plenty of people introduce themselves as something not on the birth certificate. That doesn’t make them liars.

        So you can neither recognize humans nor actual police horrors.

          I mean bro you just talked about birth certificates so I guess the real answer is that you’re dumber than a fancy autocomplete algorithm.

          Imagine thinking that being lied to for 19 years about the very basics of your identity isn’t a horror. Fuck off pig lover.
