Recently a Woodstock woman was arrested in the Beth Bentley missing person case. Jennifer Wyatt-Paplham was charged with two counts of lying to a Woodstock Police detective, when she was questioned in this case.
Just what is her legal name? Should she be charged under her true name?
Jennifer Wyatt Paplham was divorced in 2005 and her former name was restored on the divorce papers. When the judge drops the gavel and the marriage is over, isn't that the last time the woman should use her former married name?
If her name, Wyatt, was restored in 2005, should she not have changed her driver's license to reflect her true name?
Did she lie a third time, when she told the Woodstock Police that her name was Jennifer Wyatt Paplham? Should the police amend the Complaint, in order to avoid a challenge in court? Why is she still using a name of a former husband after six years' time since the divorce?

My sister has been divorced for several years now, and until she takes the divorce decree around to change her name social security, secretary of state etc, he legal name is still her ex-husbands.
I have been divorced for 4 years, and because of the kids, I have kept my ex-husband's last name, many women do.
Stacey, thanks for your comment. Please see the line above where, in the divorce, Jenn chose to have her maiden name restored. So, if legally she took her name back, then she should use it. At least, that's what I think.
