High School Reunion
Written by Christopher Corazon, Thursday May 13 2010
Imagine attending a high school reunion while you were still in high school. Guerdwich Montimere, 22, led Dillard High School to the Class 5A state semifinal basketball game. He graduated later that year. He signed to play basketball at Highland Community College, but things did not work out there.
He eventually ended up in Odessa, Texas where he pretended to be "Jerry Joseph". Joseph claimed to be 16 and homeless from Haiti. For a while, he was living with a former teammate from Dillard, Jabari Caldwell. Caldwell returned to Florida and Joseph moved in with his coach, Danny Wright.
The team was playing a tournament in Arkansas when coaches from Florida recognized that Joseph was really Montimere. Montimere was arrested for presenting false identification but was released after someone posted bail.
