Christine Collins was a woman whose son went missing. Police gave her a boy, saying he was her missing son. She took him in but stated with evidence the boy was not his son. She was committed to a mental hospital by the police. But the boy recanted and said he was indeed not the son of Collins.
Irene Silverman was a New York City wealthy socialite. She was murdered by the son of Sante Kimes and the latter, who had an elaborate plan to assume the identity of Silverman. The police caught them before the full ploy was realized.
Recently, Viktoria Nasyrova was convicted of trying to kill her befriended look-alike in a ploy to steal her identity. [1] [2]
I am wondering if there are other similar cases where a perpetrator steals and assumes the identity of a victim, after disappearing in one way or the other the latter. Regards, Thinker78 (talk) 05:04, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

I am working on a monologue stage show draft My Body No Choice which includes a list of 7 US playwrights plus one anonymous playwright. Pl. refer the table given in my draft My Body No Choice.
One monologue mentioned in this linked Guardian news report says ".. One woman, a survivor of childhood abuse, describes having an abortion on 4 July, interpreting the sound of independence day fireworks as a celebration of her autonomy: ..". I could not match this story with 7 playwright names or an anon and monologue descriptions in this Washington post news.
Pl. help match the monologue mentioned in the Guardian with (US) playwrights or monologues mentioned in the table or any other relevant news report.
