Apple will do this for you.

She has no proof of purchase. No receipt or anything. It's been over 5 years. There's no way for me to prove its mine

Boot into diagnostics and reinstall osx with wipe

Just ask the FBI to help you .. They just cracked into that iPhone 5C that was "unhackable" lol

Does that work? Would that bypass the lock?

Just take it to Apple and they'll sort it. You shouldn't need proof of purchase if you explain the situation. They'll be able to see the last account the Mac was registered to and stuff, basically the history of the computer. And if it hasn't been reported stolen or wasn't registered to somebody else miles away, it will all be fine.

This doesn't unlock an iCloud locked computer at all.
