Sherri Papini charged with faking kidnapping, officials say
California “super mom” Sherri Papini lied about being kidnapped and was staying with an ex-boyfriend, officials said.

So, this article raises more questions than it answers. Woman disappears in 2016, and claims she was abducted by Mexican women and held for weeks. In reality, she was at her ex boyfriend's house having a tryst. She apparently told the ex-boyfriend that she was being abused by her husband at home. Yet the ex boyfriend helps cover for the story, helps brand her as if she was branded against her will, helped bind her and left her on the side of the road.
Oddly, the police recovered the boyfriend's DNA off of her, as if she still had "stuff" on her person when she was being interviewed and examined. Wouldn't she know they could test for DNA, which would lead them to the boyfriend and then he would have to spill the beans?
The article doesn't explain why she supposedly did it. What was going on, etc.
She's on the hook now for up to 20 years in prison, and multiple counts facing up to $250,000 each for each fabrication she told to police.
Sounds like a massive mental breakdown to me. I know women always get lighter sentences than men - and I'm sure I'd have no sympathy whatsoever for a man who did this kind of thing. But for some reason, I think she should just get treatment and they shouldn't prosecute her. Maybe it's because she's kinda hot. Could be, I'm a sexist and I think women should be treated less harshly in these kinds of situations.
There is also the male chauvinist pig in me that says that if a chick is that crazy, she's probably wild in the sack and maybe I've gotta chance! LOL
