I'm having a hard time believing....

The story of the chick being kidnapped for weeks by two female suspects who left her by a freeway on thanksgiving day.

Sherri Papini, the Northern California mother missing for three weeks, was "very emotional" after being released by her captors on Thanksgiving morning, said Shasta County Sheriff Tom Bosenko.

Papini, 34, was found bound by restraints along Interstate 5 in Yolo County. Officials were called about 4:30 a.m. after Papini was able to flag down a motorist. The mother of two was treated for non-life-threatening injuries and reunited with her husband, Keith.

Officials said they were searching for two women in connection with the abduction. They were last seen driving a dark SUV and were believed to be armed with a handgun.

Sounds like she left her husband to be with her new guy, it didn't work out. So she schemes up this kidnapping story.

Sound fishy to me.

Y'all are cynical. You think there's a woman out there who doesn't tell the truth.

i kinda felt the same thing to when i read it yesterday.

Hoax.

Sorry, I was tainted by the election.......

You just moved this thread to the bunker.

Not yet....I chose my words very, very carefully........

Women are kidnapped every day. Usually without being found alive. Not hard to believe at all.

Have to admit that is one strange story. Kidnapped by women ?

I don't see anything in the story as told that
makes it unbelievable or fishy. Is it just a
distrust in women in general?

Anybody remember Charles Manson...and who followed his orders in the Sharon Tate muder...just sayin' ya'll might wanna give this story a rest and wait for some hard info before ya'll question stuff that has been done before...like 2 chicks with guns doing the kidnapping...

What happens in California can happen here too as many wierdo's as are out there ...and mebbe has already in the past...

She was cute, any updates??

I read a comment that the wife and husband were in on it together to get money like the "balloon boy" case.

I must admit I raised my eyebrow when I read that story. I'm guessing there's more to come also.

Now the family is asking for privacy. If someone in my family was kidnapped I would want all the media exposure I could get to find them.

We had the same thing in Frisco few years ago, Teenager went missing from a Dr. Pepper Center and she showed up in Oklahoma, Bethany Stroud. Come to find out she staged her own disappearance complete with kidnappers and bruises. After the fact her family was asking for privacy.

She probably beat the crap out of herself too.

That worked for Darlie Routier....for a few days.

I see I have to break some bad news here, sit down for this. Ready? There are women who like women out there. If a women has a slight inclination to bat from that side of the plate the man is toast. Who knows more what a woman wants than another woman? Being an A#1 a-hole (my wife will vouch for me) my wife has no such inclination

Well what would you expect in YOLO county??

I figured it was probably a hoax, but then read some of her injuries.
Now I'm leaning toward it may be true.

The husbands statement:



The first thing I would like to address is the overwhelming amount of gratitude our entire family has for the thousands of people that have been on this torturous journey with us. I cannot possibly name each and every person, although their names are eternally etched in our hearts. Thank you to our strong family, devoted friends, the entire Redding community and countless communities around the world. Specific thanks to the Shasta County Sheriff's department, FBI, NorCal Alliance for the Missing, the Lost Coast Trackers, Shasta Support Services, the Guardian Angels, my own personal A-Team, Cameron Gamble, Cody Salfen, Jim Linnan, Sean Ditty, Don Armstrong, Yolo County Sheriff's Department and hospital, the medical personnel that helped our dear Sherri, social media and many news outlets. Thank you to LRT Graphics and Signarama. Thank you to the extremely generous, anonymous as well as named donors all over the world [who] selflessly gave to our family. Thank you to the many incredible humans that have never known Sherri that facilitated in sharing our heart break across the globe. Sherri has always captured my heart, and it is no surprise that she has captured the hearts not only through the country but throughout the world. Thank you, truly, immensely, sincerely and with my entire heart.

Secondly, we live in a nation of free speech, accompanied with an era of technology that provides immediate gratification. This is a double-edged sword. I am grateful for this system, as it is what spread my wife's face quickly throughout the world, gaining the attention of thousands. The unfortunate side is that some people have been sitting in angering, expectant positions, waiting for the gory details.

Rumors, assumptions, lies and hate have been both exhausting and disgusting. Those people should be ashamed of their malicious, subhuman behavior. We are not going to allow those people to take away our spirit, love or rejoice in our girl found alive and home where she belongs. I understand people want the story, pictures, proof that this was not some sort of hoax, plan to gain money or some fabricated race war. I do not see a purpose in addressing each preposterous lie. Instead, may I give you a glimpse of the mixture of horror and elation that was my experience of reuniting with the love of my life and mother of our children.

Nothing could have prepared me for what I was about to see upon my arrival at the hospital nor the details of the true hell I was about to hear. The mental prison I was in over the past three weeks was shattered when my questions of my wife's reality became known.

The officers warned me to brace myself. My first sight was my wife in a hospital bed, her face covered in bruises ranging from yellow to black because of repeated beatings, the bridge of her nose broken.

Her now emaciated body of 87 pounds was covered in multicolored bruises, severe burns, red rashes and chain markings. Her signature long blond hair had been chopped off. She has been branded, and I could feel the rise of her scabs under my fingers. She was thrown from a vehicle with a chain around her waist, attached to her wrists and a bag over her head. The same bag she used to flag someone down once she was able to free one of her hands. Sherri was taken from us for 22 days and suffered incredibly through both intense physical agony and severe mental torture. My reaction was one of extreme happiness and overwhelming nausea as my eyes and hands scanned her body. I was filled with so much relief and revulsion at once. My Sherri suffered tremendously, and all the visions swirling in your heads of her appearance, I assure you, are not as graphic and gruesome as the reality.

We are a very private family [who] do not use social media outlets prior to this grotesque tragedy. My love for my wife took [precedence], and it was clear we had to be exposed in ways we never would have been comfortable with. So please have a heart and understand why we have asked for our privacy. This will be along road of healing for everyone. Ultimately, it was Sherri's will to survive that brought her home. Thank you.

This kind of stunt and massacres is the very reason many countries opt out of feasting on Thanksgiving day I think...

Thanks for following up on the story.

What?!? Someone faking their kidnapping has absolutely nothing to do with Thanksgiving. And certainly the prospects of a one-off fake kidnapping would not factor in to any other countries not having a Thanksgiving of their own.

Lmao. Wtf is rock talking about?


Ntx, you called that.

This story reminds me of the crazy ex girlfriend thread.

Always thought it was a fishy story. I'm thinking she's a top right quadrant of the crazy hot matrix.

Chill Bling - not all posts are for all folks...
