It all started two years ago, when Carmen Johnsen told her boyfriend that she was pregnant. Apparently a stand-up guy, the boyfriend agreed to give the Federal Way woman $700 a month in child support, in order to cover the doctors visits and tests that make having a baby so expensive. Five months later he’d given Johnsen $3,500. That’s when he saw her out and noticed she didn’t look so pregnant anymore.As first reported in the P-I, Johnsen initially told her boyfriend that she had miscarried after a car accident. She gave the baby a name, Rebecka Lynn, tried to schedule a funeral at her Catholic church and ran an obituary in the newsletter of the antique bottle collector’s club that she organizes.Carmen Johnsen is accused of lying about a pregnancy in order to get cash from an ex.”In Loving memory of Rebekah Lynn Johnsen,” it read, according to the P-I. “Becky was born asleep, 28 days premature, on July 23, 2009.”She even provided her boyfriend with a picture of the urn that she said held little Becky’s cremated ashes. The problem, police say, is that Johnsen was using a fake tragedy to get more money out of her target.According to court documents, Johnsen asked for nearly $10,000 to help cover hospital bills. Suspicious that he wasn’t getting the whole truth, the boyfriend went to the police, who allegedly got Johnsen to admit she’d known all along that she wasn’t pregnant.But Johnsen apparently wouldn’t drop the ruse. Instead, she providing cops with papers that reportedly showed she’d actually gotten pregnant — for real this time — after the time when she initially lied to her boyfriend. She also showed cops more papers which alleged that pregnancy had ended in a miscarriage, just like she’d been saying all along.But when police went to the hospital to get originals of the documents they realized the two copies didn’t look the same. They were forgeries, say the police.Johnsen gave King 5 an explanation for all the weirdness. She told them that her ex is abusive and just trying to get back at her. She’s also tried to file several restraining orders against him, but has been denied by a judge on multiple occasions.”I’ve been doing this a little over 25 years and I don’t think I have ever seen a fraud case quite like this,” a Federal Way officer told the TV station.Johnsen now faces charges of theft, perjury and forgery. And she’s refusing to pay back the money she was given for child-support.
