The link above was posted October 26, 2017 check it out.
Update to this story she was found. She’s been reunited with her family.
A Northern California mother whose disappearance made national news was found bound with restraints, but alive on Thanksgiving morning along Interstate 5 in Yolo County, officials said.
Officers received information about 4:30 a.m. Thursday that Sherri Papini, who went missing while out for a jog on Nov. 2 in the tiny town of Mountain Gate, had been found near County Road 17 and I-5.
Papini was released by her captors, and despite being bound with restraints, was able to flag down a passing driver, the sheriff’s office said in a news conference.
“She is safe, in stable condition and receiving medical clearance at an undisclosed hospital,” the Shasta County Sheriff’s Office said. “She has been reunited with her husband, Keith.”
The sheriff’s office did no give additional details as to what injuries Papini suffered, but that her injuries were non-life-threatening.
Sheriff Tom Bosenko said that investigators are looking for a dark-colored SUV driven by two armed Hispanic woman. A $50,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest of the abductors.
Anyone who see anything is asked to call the Shasta County Sheriff’s Office at 530-245-6135.
Investigators believe that Papini was abducted from the area where she went out for a jog, but no motive has been released.
“We are overjoyed with the fact Sherri has been located and reunited with her family,” Bosenko said. “This investigation has not only touched our entire community, but has circulated the nation as well.”
Papini’s husband, Keith Paini, reported her missing when he came home from work and found that she hadn’t picked up their two children from daycare. Her cell phone and headphones were found near where she was reported missing, investigators said.
A private group working with Papini’s family released a new video Wednesday offering up $100,000 to anyone with information leading to the safe return of Papini, according to NBC affiliate KNVN.
…
How ironic? The same people she’s had problems with all of her life… Hispanics are what she is calling the culprits of her disappearance. Is this a complete lie?
It’s obvious that this chick is racist. Many posts out there of hers verify this. I was trying not to taint her too much, but this is exactly what needs to happen to some degree. The truth needs to come out.
Did the Father In law Rod have anything to do with her disappearance? I’m telling you my vision and I’m not wrong. And when he came on my blog trying to set the record straight, I didn’t believe anything he said. It sounded like a script from the beginning.
I’m telling you she WAS kidnapped. She was taken, so she ain’t lying about this. BUT the circumstances…. Come on. LATINO WOMEN?? Get real bitch. Really girl? Why now? Why kidnap her now of all other days? Why bring her home or allow her to”escape” today? Yall buying it or???
Answer me this. Why would they bind her with restraints if they plan to release her? Are these people qualified to collect the RANSOM? I thought it was no questions asked. Then why do we have this stupid stereotype of a description? This dummy gonna get someone killed.
And NOBODY better give me no bullshit about GOD DID THIS!! I aint trying to hear it. Listen it ain’t no blessing when all these children and women go Missing and their bodies turn up or they go Missing and are NEVER found. God don’t have shit to do with it. It’s the luck of the draw. You can’t say, THANK GOD for this one, but others get ignored by the same god. Prayers are prayers people pray every day for their loved ones. Please don’t come on here with that favoritism garbage.
I also understand that many of you believe everything this family says. I don’t. I had mentioned a description in my blog and gave a 100% description of who took Sherri Papini. I still stand by this and if you’ve followed the story you’d see that someone fits this exact description… I hate to slander.
Supposed there is a set of Dangerous Latinas out there kidnapping white women for no cause. Well damn white girls better watch their backs. And listen you can not go offering $100,000 for every person who goes missing. And let’s just say hypothetically she was kidnapped and held Ransom or just help regardless, what does it benefit her to release all of the information about her attackers? Why would she open up and tell the cops everything? Wouldn’t her life still be in danger? And if people believe that it was someone who did this that was close to her, wouldn’t it be better if she just kept her mouth shut? I would not want to give a description at all. Because opening my fat mouth could get me in trouble again. The fact that we have a description makes me doubt the legitimacy of this.
The only thing she should be thinking about right now is being home and being safe and being close to her babies. And if I was in this situation I would not tell them a thing. If they asked me a question and said who did this… I would say I have no idea. Not unless you’re going to tell me that a witness saw two Latinas and an SUV holding a gun, I’m not buying it.
How is she supposed to have a normal life if she cannot jog? If she cannot live her life in Freedom and in peace without worry or fear of another kidnapping. Talking too much which caused her to become a Target all over again, so why would she do that? In order to catch her captors? I think she better look at her family members.
And yes the blogs are a bit old when she’s talking about her childhood. But there is something that stood out to me. When she mentioned that her father was always being known for standing up to Latinos. You don’t find it a coincidence that the two people she blames just so happen to be Latina women?
End of update…
Another update 11/25/2016
This is from a post made by a woman who wanted to assist her but couldn’t.
A California woman shared on Facebook early this morning how she saw missing mom Sherri Papini on a roadside and called police before she was rescued at 4:30 a.m. on Thanksgiving.
On a Facebook page created to help find the 34-year-old mother of two, who mysteriously vanished while jogging three weeks ago, Alison Sutton wrote:
“I couldn’t stop in time to help you this morning but I did pull over and report to police that I saw you by the road and was certain you needed help.
I am thankful that someone else was able to pull over safely to help you and that you are safe. God bless you and your family.”
Rod Rodriguez III, Sherri’s father-in-law responded: “Thank you very much for alerting the police. We greatly appreciate your assistance.”
“I don’t know that my call helped her,” Sutton wrote back, “but I am very thankful she is safe and back with her family. This is truly a Thanksgiving to remember.”
Papini was found bound on the side of the road in a tiny town near Sacramento at 4:30 a.m. Thursday – about 150 miles from her home.
PEOPLE has not been able to reach Sutton or Rodriguez for comment. A message left for the Shasta County Sheriff’s Office was not returned.
Now police are hunting for two women in an SUV, who authorities say are armed and dangerous, after Papini indicated they played a role in her kidnapping, police say.
End of update…
And here again the FIL speaking on behalf of the family. Even though the sister said If ANYONE HAS QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CASE, contact ME. How is it that the sister of Sherri requested all information go through her, but this guy is running his mouth?
By the way, did you know that the RANSOM MONEY WAS NOT A FACTOR IN HER RELEASE? LOL wtf!!!
Guys you’re trying to tell me that $100,000 was put out on the table to release her by Wednesday November 23, 2016 and they did not release her until Thursday on Thanksgiving? You’re trying to tell me that no money was given to the captors?
The GoFundMe campaign has stopped accepting donations. Guys is this the weirdest thing ever? I’m telling you I thought that the money was dispersed and everyone involved is happy.
What is the motive behind this ordeal? What was all of this about?
We will all have our theories about what took place. And it’s annoying as hell when the family who reached out for the PUBLICS help all of a sudden goes quiet on the public who MADE them. It’s like you got your money and now you’re gone.
So a reader of mine shared this tidbit below. It’s exactly what she described. Someone looked like Sherri was approached and the woman didn’t want to talk and acted evasive. Was it her? We don’t know. But it’s good information. Listen another thing. YOLO … the acronym for You Only Live Once… really? Is this a coincidence that she was picked up there?

Regarding whether or not she had been married before… well what do you think based on this document?

Initial story below
We have heard in the last few weeks about a young lady named Sherri Graeff Papini who mysteriously disappeared from her neighborhood in Shasta County California during a jog.
Well this information was released on my blog and I wanted to broadcast it.
The problem I have had during this entire story is that I never really know who she is. I cannot tell who this woman is. She literally has no voice. For some strange reason all of her Social Network accounts were deleted or they never existed. And it was extremely frustrating for me trying to find information on her.
Her husband cleaned up her phone. I guarantee he got rid of her social accounts because of what was on them. He was afraid of what the media would see. He knew that if we discovered that she was racist or prejudiced and that she wasn’t this perfect saint, that she’d be tossed aside like the rest of America’s missing adults.

Skinhead girls |
Feminine females standing by masculine malesWith the dramatic emergence of Skinheads, males who shave their heads and militantly fight the hippy lifestyle, came, of course, the girl-friends and wives who supported their men. The question immediately a moorose, could — or should — a female be a “Skinhead”? And, the follow-up quickly was, “Should a female dress, act, look or fight like a Skinhead?” Skinhead pioneer Corkey Bowman was quick with the answer, “Males be masculine, females be feminine.” That meant short hair for boys, long hair for girls. Jeans for guys, skirts for gals. Since Skinheads widely became known as “hooligans,” a title they took with honor, Skinheads would show up with shirts emblazoned with the word Hooligan. Eventually, females would be seen with shirts proclaiming Hooligirl. Of course, being a Skinhead is rough and dangerous work, defending turf, pushing back opponents and marching for the cause. Being a citizen-soldier or modern-day Minuteman is not a co-ed operation. Most Skinhead Girls, as they came to be known, realized their role and dutifully provided the support and sustenance Skinheads needed, at critical times. Some females, however, began to try to be more “Skinhead” in appearance. Sometimes calling themselves Skinbyrds, they would cut their hair short, don boots and, even, call themselves “Skinheads.” The image was inappropriate, however, in that unwittingly some females were taking on the appearance of the very lesbians and mannish-women who Skinheads so ardently put down. Newcomers, especially, tended to become confused, when they would come across girls dressed up as “Skinheads” over the Internet. Amelia Flower, for example, asked, “I want to get into being a Skinhead girl. And do you take girls?” Hippy elements began to propagandize that females were “not welcome” as “Skinheads”, beckoning females to join the ranks of Communists and anarchists who maintained minuscule but annoying websites known as RASH or SHARP, which depicted females and males, Negroes and whites, as “Skinheads.” Beautiful, feminine and attractive Skinheads usually laugh off Red attempts to smear, twist or malign them. Sharon Hutchinson even wondered aloud how any Skinhead could “imitate those so much lower and more animalistic than themselves.” The term Skinhead Girl, of course, can be a misnomer. If it means a girl who works with Skinheads, advances the Skinhead cause and stands by her man, then the term is probably correct. But, if it is used to describe a female who feigns being a Skinhead, herself, it is not a proper usage of the term. So, Skinheads launched an educational campaign of their own depicting girls who are part of the Skinhead cause and who sometimes call themselves “Skinhead Girls,” but who are beautiful, feminine and attractive. They published articles by Skinhead Girls, such as Sherri Graef, stating plainly that “girls should not fight,” but that combat is left solely to men, unless in extreme circumstances of self-defense. Lindsey Oldnag pointed out that she has the “Skinhead Spirit,” inside, but, on the outside, resembles any other, nice-looking woman. Some even recited from the Bible that “it is a shame for a man to have long hair, but it is a glory for a woman.” Lacy Cox put it this way. “I can’t seem to locate a lot of local Skinheads, but I keep in contact with Skins in other places, who are nice to know. I had a man approach me and ask if I was a Skinhead. I had no clue how to answer. I’d like Skins to recognize me, but I’m not sure of the appropriate dress or words for it.” Richie Rose, Moderator of The Skinhead Forum, posted an appeal for “our brothers and sisters to join together and fight for the cause.” He, then, reflected and deleted the word “sisters,” insisting that he did not wish to imply that females ought to be “front-line combatants,” on a par with males. Skinhead Girl is fine with him and he delights in telling how females are part of his life and cause. Richie explains that females interact with him and other Skinheads by wearing Skinhead insignia and supporting Skinheads, rather than by cutting their hair or donning boots. There have been attempts by Hollywood to corrupt the Skinhead image by depicting Skinhead Girls as whores or prostitutes and Skinheads as drug-abusers or low-lifes. All such propaganda has failed, however, as the wholesome Skinhead image, protecting womanhood, nationhood and mankind, continues to advance. |
Well one of my Savvy readers came on and left a link for me to read and after reading this blog written by her I’m a little concerned. I would never have expected this coming from her because she comes off as someone who is so perfect. And although I knew deep down inside no one is perfect it’s still confusing when you hear their description of her versus what you read in her blogs. But see for yourself. Now I understand that many of my readers will fall in love with her even more because perhaps you are skinheads and you share the same ideals. I respect that but for those of you who don’t know what you’re getting in to, I’d like to inform you of this.
As I read these posts from her I decided to share the photo that I thought was more appropriate. Is this lady a privileged white girl who thinks she’s better than the rest of us? Were her parents guilty of treating her like she was untouchable?
I read a blog title today called, Attractive blonde Mom goes missing during jog. And I’m like REALLY? Attractive. What does attractive have to do with it unless you think it’s related.
This whole Latino feud between her and her family has me thinking differently about the case. I still believe she was taken, but was it calculated and staged? After reading these posts by her do you understand further why I was suspicious of the husband? I cannot say exactly what his involvement is, but it goes to show that this information that I’m sharing on this blog is NOT What they’d want people to see. So is it safe to say that KEITH is a skinhead?
If shes reading all this material on it and giving little lessons on the issue, then why would Keith not be part of it? If Keith is part of it, who else in the family is dabbling in this society?
Theres two sides of every one. What they are, and who they want you to see. Seems to me that miss prissy face felt a little bit haughty. THAT would explain the need for BILLIONS of photos. She truly thinks shes the shit. This goes beyond confidence, it goes on to shallow as a kiddie pool.
I’d like to be respectful towards her because of the circumstances. But I don’t like the idea that she thinks she can jump ahead in the line because shes blonde with blue eyes. What kind of nonsense did her family put into her?
Well obviously someone holds true value because an anonymous someone has offered an undisclosed amount of money for her return. The Graeff/Papini family has refused to state the actual dollar amount because they don’t want to put a price on her head.
Thanks to whoever contributed to this blog.
Where is AMERICA’S SWEETHEART?
Ok Updated 11/28/2016
“Being white is more than just being aware of my skin, but of standing behind Skinheads — who are always around, in spirit, as well — and having pride for my country. Being white is my family, my roots, my way of life. It’s always there. There’s no denying it. It’s nobility. It’s strength.”
Now I took that clip from her post that she made on that website.
When I first wrote this blog I was kind to her because she was still missing I did not want to get ugly with it.
But now that the delusional bitch has been dug up, its on. I’ll give her the Ericka Courtney treatment. Fair is my middle name. I did not know that white was a way of life. Also did not know that skin color was so important. White is her family? What pills is she taking? This chick is a shallow hag. We are all the same. And we all need more love. Not some stupid drama queen stirring up backwoods racism.
Let me guess she couldn’t make it in the sex trafficking trade for being a stiff frigid twat.
Listen Sherri Papini with the Skinhead in your blood. Everybody was looking for you. And people genuinely cared about you. But to know what a hateful slug you are is a bit disheartening. I see you in your perfect WHITE world with your perfect white kids. But all I see is FAB. FAKE ASS BITCH. Girl its 2016. Nobody has time for that racist skin tone bullshit. Maybe if you can get your nose out of Keiths ass, maybe you would realize that Blacks are free and Latinos are contributors to this country. Sherri Papini, America is not WHITE COUNTRY you dizzy broad. Its OUR LAND. Its a metropolis. We ALL fit and we’re all welcome.
We ALL contributed to building this great nation. Did you ever stop to think that maybe you were the problem? You talk so much about the Latino girls who did not like you in school, but maybe you gave off a bad vibe. Maybe you were a snooty ass hole. You act like you’re so perfect in school even refraining from saying ONE bad word and when you did, that word SLIPPED out. Who Do You Think You Are? REMINDS me of Norman Bates. He wouldn’t harm a fly. But deep down inside, Norman was a psychopath. You fit the profile of a narcissistic psycho. On the surface you’re so shiny and cute. But beneath the surface you’re a raging lunatic. You look like the kind of mom who’d kill her kids. Just because they were getting more attention than you. Do you even know what struggle is? If people called your dad a NAZI, he deserved it. Stop trying to play the victim. Sherri you have two types of people in your life. Those who are your friends who are stupid just like you and those who believe everything you say. You have no real friends and you aren’t a SUPER MOM. What you are is displaced and pissed. I saw your Pin about how tough being a STAY AT HOME mother is. Actually I did it for many years. The only thing you have to do is interact with your children. But you are fortunate enough to put your kids in Daycare. But you’re still complaining. Sherri the world does not revolve around you.
You said that the fact that you were of German-descent That this must’ve irritated them. But how would they know if you did not tell them? Why would anyone care what descent you are?
You were getting in trouble for being drug free and white? So I guess Latinos are all drug users.
I wonder if your mom hates you.
One of the worst things for decent parents is discovering that we raised a self centered shallow zealot. We hate that shit. You better hold on your Geek Squad husband because hes the only one who will tolerate your foolishness. And the only reason he accepts it is because you worship his feet. I can see your marriage ending tragically in a murder suicide. You two fit the profile easily because ONE of you is fake as fuck.
The relationships where everyone says ITS SO PERFECT are the ones that end in the news.
Was I harsh? Yup. Do I care? Nope.

So what does everyone think about all of the information being reveled today? See reddit. So many ties between everyone who has played a role in the case so far. So many non profits owned by same people. Clue may be in operators of same non profits. Where does Bethel church fit in? Mysterious sex trafficking phenomenon spreading across country. Appears to be a national problem. Agenda is promoted by churches across the nation. Strangely, majority of sex workers have not gotten there through abduction. So who would benefit? Non profit organizations across the country? That are usually associated with various churches? A possible way to hide funds or launder money? What about the social agenda promoted by both churches and non profits? To modify society behavior and thought (especially women since they have become so sexualized), to cure society of its obsession with sex (both clearly stated by various non profits). City governments, law enforcement agencies, etc, who would benefit by increased funding for departments? Generated by public fear of increased crime, sex trafficking and abduction (something I hear repeatedly from locals – seems like such a high crime rate for that city, which I have visted). Churches who want to expand? Both physically and agenda wise? New buildings require the approval of planning and zoning commissions and other city departments. Who might be involved with those departments or commissions or city government? A very good question to ask! Ericka is right! The information put out there yesterday was 100% correct and probably led to many finally getting on the right track! The saga continues but more revelations to come… 🙂

Most people don’t believe this… I’m putting it on blast… again! It’s just a cut and paste of what I just posted somewhere else.
Look into Bethel church first. Then check a website called Jesusculture.org. Then read the sub reddit called “can we talk about Missy McArthur” …. you should probably start there first instead (she was the mayor of Redding until recently), actually anyone doing a serious investigation really needs to read all of the MarkMyWords reddit posts – lots of silliness to weed through but bombshell clues and proof, not guesses, not hearsay, actual proof and if you know what you are doing you will know when you find those things). You will find verifiable public documentation for every single connection that is discussed and the further you look the longer the list gets. Every single person that is involved in this case also has ties to the church including people in city government and law enforcement. Key word is verifiable. Through public records and other sources. If you stay only on that trail you might discover the real story. It has to do with money for the city and funding various departments, approvals for new church buildings/expansions, promoting the agenda of the church (who actually is the founder of a multitude of churches in the Sacramento area, which you will find under the website mentioned above). On that website they also discuss the importance of members getting jobs in city government and other positions of power that allows them to promote their agenda. They also have a detailed plan (called City Hub) regarding “planting” churches and organizations along all of the major highways of the Sacramento area, map included showing all locations. There are A LOT! Supposedly they (Bethel) are the largest employer in Redding (this info I have not yet verified myself but should be easily available online). How this is not a huge story being reported in the media I will never understand. There is good reason for people to ask questions about whether or not the FBI or any other outside law enforcement agency has truly been involved in this case and to what extent. There are some interesting online connections (social media) between people involved in various ways with the case. Fortunately, people take screenshots of things and save links, etc because a lot of it has been removed. Everyone has been focusing on the wrong things. There are some strange happenings in Shasta county and I keep hoping at some point a legitimate news agency actually starts taking a serious look into what they have so far brushed off as silly hoax theories. IMO I think that WHOEVER ends up being involved in the case wasn’t expecting it to turn into a national story and certainly didn’t count on the people who frequent online sites like Ericka’s or reddit and websleuths, nor did they expect the expertise of those same people in discovering the information they have.
Reminder: please screenshot everything you look at like websites and save videos if you can, (because not everyone knows how and no one knows who is saving what for sure) because these blogs and comments are being read by people who don’t want this information out and as soon as it starts being discussed in the open things start getting removed from the Internet…. just happened again today…
Thank you, Ericka, for providing an open forum to discuss anything we want without censorship!!! 🙂

We’ve heard narratives laid down by KP and CG that remain unconfirmed. We’ve heard from people talking about her but to the public she remains a ghost. Today it’s been 3 weeks since her return and it’s still radio silence from the victim herself. Sherri Papini is still missing.

Hi Ericka, thanks for all you’ve written on this weird case! It could be the divorce was filed in 2007 and finalized in 2008. When I google, I keep seeing the reference to SP’s ex who divorced her in 2007. They could be basing the date on when he originally filed though. Given that SP never mentions being married before in her wedding blog, I’m wondering if SP has lied to folks like Trish.

I have lived in Redding for over 15 years now and know some of her friends. Its a very small world in this rural area. Most of us have believed from the beginning that this was hoax. This couple have always been to put it nicely – attention seekers to the nth degree. The best thing that ever happened to Keith is her long blonde and then in later years her augmented breasts. In high school he followed her like a puppy dog and stroked her bleach blonde locks all the time. When she moved away after marrying someone else he even waited for several years for her to return, always speaking of us long blonde hair. Finally she went back to Keith after her divorce. Eventually she married him and had 2 children, however its always been her, the new breasts, and long blonde hair that he has obsessed on….maybe its a ticket to fame – a movie contract, reality show or PlayBoy photo shoot? Perhaps Keith can pen a book about a book about this? His comments when he 1st saw her in the SAC ER after she was released on the I-5 was “overwhelming nausea as my eyes and hands scanned her body”. Dose that and other remarks by him sound more like pulp fiction than an upset man seeing his wife in the ER for the 1st time after her being released from 22 days of horror? Who else has at least 6-8 different sets at different times of professional photos with her and him but none of their children? Their home is full of these giant professional pix of themselves but not of their kids? Who wears expensive designer apparel and dresses their children much lesser? (check out their online shop for their hand me downs on Poshmark . com)? Why and how do they afford to have their children in daycare when she doesn’t work? How do they pay for breast implants when they live on Keith’s gross salary of $30,000.00 at Best Buy? . LLE here have been promising a police composite drawing of the suspects since she was found on Thanksgiving Day, nearly 3 weeks ago. Apparently the Papini’s have no interest in doing so despite that a few in the community still believe her and are scared to death. Keith said in his hour long interview on ABC that he didn’t care if the abductors were ever caught or not. Does that sound like a grieving husband that wants to get justice for his wife being held captive and according to him was beaten, starved, burned, branded, nose broken and her “signature long blonde cut off” (Quote by Keith Papini) for nearly 3 weeks? Why is it that one can go to her mothers FB and see a pic of sherri and the children taken on the 28 NOV (6 days after she was found) that does not show any bruises, cuts, burns AND there are locks of long hair hanging out of her hat? In looking at this pic its obvious it was taken this year when one looks at the childrens’ ages as last year they would have been 1 and 3 years old. The youngest in the pic looks like he is 2 yrs old and not one yr. Why is it that she is not using some of the collected monies for therapy? There are many more details that she was not kidnapped. If you really want to know, visit Redding and ask around. $1.5+million dollars in paid interviews plus GoFund accounts is a good start!

I read the analysis that Peter Hyatt did on Keith that was posted on his Statement Analysis site. I now am focusing on Keith. He has been the one doing most of the talking. Most of the information we have is from what he has told us. We didn’t hear from Sherri before, during or after the alleged kidnappping. Nor have we seen her either. Most of Keith’s statements focus on how HE feels, how this ordeal has affected HIM. I really want to learn more about him. Seems we have read a lot about Sherri but what about Keith? For all we know Sherri doesn’t even exist except for pictures. There is no desire to find these violent Hispanic women who tortured and beat a frail woman. Now they’ve left town which means he must have quit his job. What is going on?

I believe they hired a publicist and the articles in People mag were set up by them because they realized the “2 hispanic women” made no sense. There has never been any decent description of these women and the sketch artist was sent away because if it led to the arrest of innocent people, that would have increased their criminal offenses
There is a cover up going on, everyone involved hopes the public lets it go (except for Keith and Sherri, they were banking on the GP buying the story from the beginning, as they were planning a whole media tour).

LOL. You are still incorrect. If the man was born in 1927 he would be 89! Not 86 or 70. Anyway my two cents is this…..the story seems to have died down in the news . I’m in agreement with others here. I have two scenarios. They both involve Gamble. One is that Keith and Sherri are in on it together as a scam to make money OR Keith orchestrated it because of his jealous/controlling/possessiveness over his wife to teach her a lesson. I believe my first scenario is more plausible. Why I can’t make my mind up yet is because we have not seen or heard Sherri since the ordeal. Most everything we’ve heard, in detail, is from Keith. He’s not believable so we have nothing to go on. LE has been vague. I feel that if they were in on it together then she doesn’t look as bad as described so if she were to appear in the media we would see she was lying. Or if Keith had her punished then he doesn’t want anyone seeing her because what he described isn’t true. By skipping town they will wait the approximate time it would take for her “injuries” to heal anf then she’ll appear. They left the dogs behind but the neighbors are caring for them. So the neighbors know. I just can’t figure out why authorities are siding with them or the truth hasn’t come out yet. Either they are putting a case together or they are in on it too. Lol. We haven’t heard any real follow up stories. No family or friends saying much. This doesn’t make sense.

I cannnot stop thinking we would be shocked if we actually saw Sherri’s injuries the day she was found. When I heard husband’s over-the -top descriptions of her injuries and that the family has now left town deliberately leaving behind their two small dogs never to return according to neighbor; I am assuming it is because she looks very similar now to the multiple pics we have been exposed to from this couple with sister emphatically declaring on day one ‘ do not use social media’. Has anyone else noticed a pattern by Sherri to obtain large sums of money in seeemingly unusual ways for frivilous material things plus holidays photo shoots boob jobs.
Also seems like network media never attempted to ask any hard questions about this case. They had ample oppportunity to question Keith’s inconsistencies. Even mentioning a reality show…..wwwhat!!

I work in criminology, and from day 1 nothing about this story sounded right. Most violent offenders or kidnappers do not release their victim. The risk of identification after release is way too high. Most also seek ransom. And with the exception of train robbers from the 1920s most also don’t wear bandanas around their faces–think about it. How great of a job does a bandana really do to hide your face? The second someone wearing one stands over you aren’t you generally able to see more facial feature since the nose pushes the cloth out? Not to mention once there’s a breeze the whole game is up. Most offenders would opt for a ski mask, or more likely, cover the victims eyes the entire time. Which we know did not happen, and shows a very “unique” handling of the victim. And what about the hoop earrings? Usually a bandana is tied over the ears. If she could see these, wouldn’t she be able to see more of the face, or at least the jaw line?
If anyone out there hasn’t had the chance to look at Sheri’s Pinterest “Tcash” I strongly suggest you take a look (https://au.pinterest.com/spapini/). Days before the alleged kidnapping she and her family are in a photo with bandanas. And in a few photos of haircuts she admires there are blond woman with hair chopped severely short. Interestingly enough, Sheri had two boards that were removed– one on “racial tensions” which essentially was all about white-pride (disgusting) and another about “tough mamas” or moms who carry guns.
One last point (although I could go on forever) is the old racist web blog that according to her ex was supposedly was written by someone in high school “seeking revenge.” I don’t know about you, but if there was something so horrible out there on the web floating around with my name on it I’d be beyond horrified. And I’d do everything in my power to remove it. Not only because it would make me sick to my stomach, and because I actually care about people, but even at a very selfish level, because I wouldn’t want it to haunt me. Imagine going for a job interview and having that surface? And what kind of revenge is a three paragraph piece posted online years after high school is over?
From what I can tell, this is one very sick, twisted individual. I have no doubt the husband is in on this as well. The motive was attention and money, plain and simple. The racism was a fun added bonus for these two . I hope the truth surfaces quickly, and these two are held financially responsible for all the funding they have received and search money wasted,

You have some very good observations. Here some answers to some of your questions:
* Yes, the FBI was involved. Their jurisdiction kicked on once the Shasta Co detectives needed to go across state lines to question people . However, their involvement has been limited.
http://www.krcrtv.com/news/local/shasta/sheriff-explains-why-fbi-is-not-more-involved-in-shasta-co-missing-woman-case/162315438
* Could you provide a link the video with the person that looks like the Sherrif? Could be a huge find if it is in fact the Sherrif.
* Having done quite a bit of sleuthing on Sherri, there is nothing in her background that show’s any military involvement. But, that’s just from my research…so who knows.
* I agree that Keith does have a military/law enforcement manner about him . This is noticeable in his word usage. Ex: says “vehicle” instead of car
Turns out that he has an associates in Administration of Justice. He also has many friends in LE.
http://www.krcrtv.com/news/local/shasta/sheriff-explains-why-fbi-is-not-more-involved-in-shasta-co-missing-woman-case/162315438
* It is unlikely that Sherri doesn’t have injuries. She was in fact treated at a medical facility, when found. The medical protocol is extensive is a situation like this. Many photos are taken, The hospital takes them and LE brings in their own photographer and takes their own set of photos. Yes, a victim can refuse this and leave the hospital but the nurses would have already noted what they could see superficially. Bruises, burns, etc… Now that Keith has gone public with descriptions of the injuries, the police would have immediately known if this was true.
Most likely, she Munchausen’s Syndrome. Here is a link discussing Sherri and this:

It’s also not unheard of for a person who knows someone who went through a traumatic experience (her friend’s sister who was kidnapped in the same location when they were in high school and found murdered) to later in life recreate a similar, made up situation.

I think a lot of people aren’t realizing a very important link between the sheriff and Bethel church and/or one of Gamble’s multiple companies (there’s more than two). I was websluething and came across one of his companies called something like Palladium or something similar and there was a video posted of Gamble giving a demonstration of how to protect from a kidnapping (because those happen so frequently in small northern California towns known to be associated with the white nationalist movement – lol), could have been in a church auditorium, and I swear to god there was a guy standing behind the table where they were registering people as they walked in that looked exactly like the sheriff. My opinion, there is a tie between the sheriff and Gamble or his companies (I was trying to find ownership info on all of them), Bethel church (bet the sheriff goes there to, along with the Papini’s) and Sherri. Also, there are several different news articles out there that quote a friend of the family but if you look into those people also you can find some weird ties back to Bethel church. Bethel church appears to me to advocate what I would call a white supremacist agenda if you listen to some of the words they use and looks like all white churchgoers on all oflights the vides I saw. Does anyone remember seeing or hearing anything about the FBI ever being involved in the case at any point? I don’t and that seems really weird to me because the FBI always gets involved in these type of case that have so much publicity nationwide. But I think the sheriff has to request their assistance, which he wouldn’t do if he has any ties to any of this. I don’t believe she even has any injuries which would make sense of why they left town. Can’t risk her being seen by any media because that would blow the story wide open. If true, by the sheriff confirming her injuries, isn’t he only confirming his involvement? One more thing I forgot to look into is did Cameron Gamble and Sherri’s husband serve any time in the military together? I know there’s a website that has all of the names of anyone who was ever in the military. That was the first thing that popped in my head when I saw a picture of Gamble and a picture of husband. They both have that look to me. Another thing, if you Google the sheriff he has all kinds of complaints against him for violating civil rights and other things that seem like a lot for such a small town, along with his racist YouTube video. We need to establish a firm connection between him and any other part of this case because once that happens, no one is going to be able to deny it anymore.

This was within two weeks of her abduction. The payout varies from state to state, and is only available to victims of violent crime.

Lucky me they headed north lol! I will keep my sleuthy eyes open to a possible sighting 😉
I knew a girl similar to her once I think.. Based on the reddit comment about egg selling and surrogacy combined w a boob job and travel w the money, as well as her obsession w looks, I suggest Sherri was likely an escort and woman that shopped for the best mate. Marrying into the papini family sounds like a good investment of herself given rod rodriguez's financial footprint in her small town 😉 so yes there is SOMETHING involving the extended family going on it seems, as Keith does not butter her bread from his documented pay..
Cameron Gamble.. What an obvious dangerous freak! He truly scares me! His kidnap video is way out there..It was scary because of the obvious stated content and how it shows he is off his Meds, but also his attention to detail from the kidnappers point of view. I think Cameron is also a Pervy kidnapper! I think he is obsessed w abduction on all levels! This man is a dangerous nut job..hell he could be reading these posts and plotting his next victim as criticism of his obviously lacking skill set pisses him off. I have been looking into him this last week and he is bad news as Blonde Girl has has pointed out. I hope police shut him down as families w missing should run when he shows up but will be desperate for his "help"
I also find it outrageous that Keith gives all of these descriptive details that he says his wife told him but she cant be descriptive when talking to the popo. Is she afraid to show her face and speak lies or is she still a kidnap by family victim? The whole famdamily has motive depending on how one looks at it and so far she is still (kinda)missing until she speaks up for herself in some way..

His bankruptcy, while embarrassing, wasn’t a huge scandal. I truly believe this was cooked up by the starving Pap’s and Gamble. The Pap’s will have the lifestyle they want (for a short time), sympathy, and Gamble running around tooting his own horn how he saved the day, and he could save yours too. My understanding is that he’s already using the Pap case as one of his many abduction victories in his resume.
Speaking of Gamble, when fellow Air Force members question his level and experience, he get’s evil! Being in the AF for only 3 years, you cannot be a senior hostage negotiator. His “brothers” are saying his claims to fame, and lack of experience makes him very dangerous, and endangers the public! Go on FB and see the many Bethel students pretending to be clients who sing his praises (claiming his course is genius) on Project Taken, then see the servicemen who are very concerned. Mrs. Gamble is not a very nice lady when her hubby’s credentials are questioned! I don’t think the Lord was present with her in her postings.

Strangely, when I first heard about her and her narcissism, she reminded me of Diane Downs, a narcissistic psychopath who couldn’t get enough attention and who made $10,000 in 1982 through a surrogate pregnancy. Diane thought it was a great way to make fast money without a full-time job, and she was inseminated again in 1983 for a second surrogacy, but it didn’t take.

He feels he’s better than any fed or police officer because he looks at cases through God’s eyes. He feels called by the Father to help these poor women. He has no problem asking followers for cash too. He truly did nothing with this case, but he’s telling the media he did. This will boost Project Taken which will boost his income. He had a personal bankruptcy in 2012. He had another business prior to Project Taken (it was the same kind of work) that failed.

A decent amount of the town appear to know him based on the bit of research I did from the WeThe People website, as many people are featured in videos etc. , and linked on this site.
I see gamble and papini collusion long before the abduction was staged.
I see a small town with alt-right leanings common enough that law enforcement publicly support and espouse these values and allow their videos to be shared on (gambles?) wethepeople library.
In the Bosenko video he supports many things, such as anti Mexican, anti marijuana, anti environmentalists, anti government, pro malheur wildlife occupation, pro economy, agenda 21.
Is this kidnapping business viewed as one that strengthens the local economy?
Are any of the players personal friends of law enforcement? It seems likely..
Clearly the investigation has inconsistencies visible to law enforcement as they have stated such between half assed yup we believe her statements..
It seems as though investigating this case puts the sheriff in a predicament. He may have to call out acquaintances or friends as liars. Is this safe to do in a town with behind the scenes influence from the Bethel Cult?
I picture Bethel cult running around like scientologists lol with thuggish anti kidnap powers and influence. 😉

It’s definitely not a coach seat, or even first class. It looks like a private jet. They had an expensive wedding and honeymoon.

She gets her hair professionally done (former stylist has commented.)He doesn’t make much money, and she’s a stay at home Mom! How can they live this lifestyle? I’m thinking they’re in serious debt.
I believe the plot was this…. They planned this so Keith and Sherri would benefit financially. I believe they had a relationship with the Gamble’s who are tied into Bethel.

What did Gamble and Bethel get out of this? Exposure! Gamble takes full credit for her return, which will make him highly desirable to families who have a missing loved one. It boosts Bethel’s claim of being able to do miraculous things that no other church can do. This all equates to more cash.
I truly hope that this case will have resolution soon. The thought of it being unresolved, and this couple getting away with this sickens me. We have so many legit missing people who didn’t get the media attention, police attention, or the money Sherri did.

I just followed a link to Sherri’s wedding blog. She makes everything seem so romantic and exciting. Like out of a romance novel. . The gifts, saved letters , romantic expensive dinners. Acting like she never had lived with a man( like in her mind she was a virgin?) Well maybe after being married for awhile she wasn’t living her “exciting, perfect, dream life” that she thought she would/should be living. (based on her “pre-marriage life) . No more fancy dinners, love letters, vacations. Then the kids came along. No more being the center of attention. She was now a stay at home mom .So either she gets involved with someone else who adds excitement to her life and her husband finds out . He hires the Gamble guy to teach her a lesson and has her “abducted”. The husband tells him just to keep her until Thanksgiving. Tells him to cut off her hair to take away what she values most. Her looks. And brand her( as his property) . When she “returned” Kieth would still be mad at her so he wouldn’t shed any tears. Or Sherri hired the Gamble guy to “kidnap” her to teach Kieth a lesson and cut off her hair because she knew it would make Kieth mad and also add some excitement in her life. . . The money was a bonus. . Just my two cents.
I love your blog Erika.

Very insightful thoughts from an NBC Criminal Profiler. It’s worth watching the short video. It doesn’t surprise me that one is finding links from Sherri to Gamble/Bethel. I cannot stress enough to all of you how huge, and how influential Bethel is in Redding. Gamble’s involvement, and him claiming his pressure saved Sherri’s life is going to bring desperate families out of the woodwork! This means more cash, and a higher profile for the huge cult church who believes they can rise people from the dead. They speak in tongues, and have their own language. This high profile case with the girl next door is going to benefit them greatly!

Ok. Before I continue I want to stress that I am NOT one of those conspiracy theorists or people that think the mainstream media is controlling us. As I was reading about the case last night I was on Reddit and they posted a YouTube link. It was a video ofrom some guy who thinks everything from the Orlando boy killed by an alligator to john Lennon not dying and still being alive etc. So I guess these people think that stories like the papini’s are fake. Created/made up by the media to make money. The people are actors and they do it to get ratings, book deals, movies all in order to make the media money. This man even said that bosenko is in on it too. I’m just wondering what people think about this? Are these conspiracy people nuts or does the media create fake stories ? I admit I had to stop watching the guys videos because people commenting were convinced the whole planet is fake LOL. Do you think that this could be completely made up to make money, not just for the papinis but the media? The panini family doesn’t look real. None of their pictures seem candid. All professional pics. Just thought I’d throw this in, again not a freaky conspiracy person at all.

I have been trying to find info on the families finances. Can’t find any. In one of the first articles I read it stated the husband said they would not go public about the alleged abduction . His family was a very private entity. Now he is on 20/20. I read he claimed he never took his personal phone to work with him? That doesn’t make sense. We all hope we never get a call that our wife or kids need help while at work. But we want that phone to ring just in case? You can always turn it off during a business meeting? I would think most of us would react differently in this matter. We would be so grateful our wife was alive and okay. And not making comments about how wonderful she is. How she was thinking of others if someone was going by and didn’t stop to help her. Are they thinking a reality show is in the works with all the attention given so far? The public and media can’t get enough? Did the abductors find out there wasn’t enough money to be had with a ransom plot? So they dumped her? I don’t believe there was a bag or cover over her hear 24/7. She could describe the inside of the place she was in. Oh right….she was too traumatized to remember any details for almost 3 weeks.

Well, 20/20 didn’t give much more info. I did like the expert ABC has who said he did not believe Sherri was branded for sex trafficking purposes as Gamble believes. It is true that when you abduct a girl for sex purposes, you would want her as pretty as possible. Typically these girls are injected with drugs so they will become addicted and do anything to get more drugs (do more sex work). Without a motive we are left to believe this had to be a hoax. Keith is very good with the welling up tears. So, what hasn’t been discussed on here, and what few of you will know is Gamble’s involvement with Bethel church (some of you know that, but don’t know about the church itself), and what kind of church Bethel is. You can google it for yourself. They have a school called Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry. There are lots of people who have go fund me pages hoping, praying, and begging to attend this school. Bethel believes they can heal the dying. They believe they have “super powers” that no other church has. People come from other states, even other countries to join this cult called Bethel. People actually fall for this that God is more present at Bethel, than at any other church.
Gamble not only promoted himself, he also promoted Bethel. Gamble/Bethel believes they put the heat on so hot that these wicked women had to let Sherri go. Can you imagine all the desperate families who have a loved one missing who will seek them out now? Again, they have “super natural powers”. It’s all about money. Bethel is a cash cow! They own property all over Redding. They are beyond maximum capacity so they will again build a bigger and better church near Shasta College. That’s coming soon though the neighbors don’t want it. A cute Mom abducted,then returned after “extreme super natural pressure”, Gamble/Bethel claim to save the day, means lots of desperate high paying families. Families are already draining their bank accounts to bring a sick loved one to Bethel for complete healing, and now they can drain more bank accounts for the missing. Feel free to google Bethel and it’s school of super natural. You’ll see what a cult it is with your own eyes.

Blonde Girl- I too think the Papini family is involved, honestly.
If you check out Cameron Gamble, it is obvious that he has been trying to launch a business centered around awareness classes and hostage extraction for years. His online presence indicates that he thinks this papini abduction is his golden ticket to launch this concept. Yes I think papini involvement is certain. I am currently not 100% certain if Sherri is a willing participant or if the papini family actually kidnapped her! I am considering this as plausable after listening to Keith’s first interview after her abduction. I have not yet checked out 20/20.. His tone is possessive of her from day one. Honestly, who besides Keith Papini and Cameron Gamble (see my first link) think it is ok to track a family member’s every move “for their safety”? Though perhaps helpful, it is controlling and creepy. Keith describes Sherri as his object instead of her actual self. His hands explore her body. His Sherri, etc. almost every comment is possessive. Bosenko states that somebody humiliated her and branded her to show ownership. Was it the Papini family? Sherri’s family seem nervous and suspicious but not necessarily 100% in on it per se.. I see financial motive for many players, but was this possibly coupled with humiliation for Sherri too? Keith’s family may possibly feel she owes him or them as she lives in their house and his family appear the more wealthy of the two business owning clans. We have heard nothing from her except her (ahem) online voice prior to the event. She thus far is voiceless after the fact. Maybe she conspired or maybe they all actually did teach her a lesson.
My other link about Bosenko shows him discussing the “invasion of foreign nationals on American soil” ( anti Hispanic sentiment) to a crowd of ovation giving locals.. How invested is Bosenko too? He is directly linked to Gamble’s website..

No one is going to bow down to some church dude who makes mysterious video’s, but desperate families will seek him out hoping to get this same result. I don’t know if this is true, but it’s been printed that the Papini’s told the kids Mommy will be home for Thanksgiving, and she was! None of this makes any sense! I’m sure it will get much worse after I watch Keith tonight. When law enforcement tells you to shut your mouth, you shut your damn mouth! They should charge him for obstructing justice. They wont do it because the community would be outraged since he’s been so victimized, but he definitely obstructed justice.

On Point!! Sherri story reminds me of Susan Smith Lying Accusation against “vague descript Black man”-1994 The moment I heard her pleading for her children I KNEW she was lying and told my husband just that. He asked why. I said, her story is Hollow and Too Vague…Facts don’t match up with Reality…..Sure Enough Truth Prevailed (she is up for parole 2024..age of possible parole 53….she should have received the death penalty…she planned their murder and concocted a Lie-premeditated)….praying Truth Prevails on this “Kidnapping”… .From the Article Regarding Susan Smith….On October 25, 1994, Smith reported to police that her vehicle had been carjacked by a black man who drove away with her sons still in it. For nine days, she made dramatic pleas on national television for their rescue and return. However, following an intensive investigation and a nationwide search, on November 3, 1994, she confessed to letting her 1990 Mazda roll into nearby John D. Long Lake,[5] drowning the boys inside.[6] Her motivation was reportedly to be able to have a relationship with a local wealthy man, even though he had no intention of forming a family.[7]
Later investigation revealed that detectives always doubted Smith’s testimony, and believed that she murdered her sons. On the second day of the investigation, the police, suspecting that she knew their location, hoped that they were still alive. Investigators started to search the nearby lakes and ponds, including John D. Long Lake, where their bodies were eventually found. Initial searches did not uncover the car because the police believed it would be within 30 feet off the shore, and did not search farther; it turned out to be 60 feet from the shore. After the boys were missing for two days, Smith and her estranged husband David, were subjected to a polygraph test. The biggest breakthrough of the case was her description of the carjacking location. Smith had claimed that a traffic light had turned red causing her to stop at an otherwise empty intersection. However, it was determined that the signal would not have changed to red for her unless a vehicle was present on the intersecting road. This conflicted with Smith’s statement that she did not see any other cars at the intersection when the carjacking took place.:

If my loved one was tortured I wouldn’t give a crap what people thought. I would want justice! I would be out for blood, not out to do damage control via the media.
I truly do not want to believe that any human being would shave (yes, now they’re saying shaved, not cut) their own head, brand themselves and beat themselves all for attention, but it has happened before. If I were married, had little kids, wanted a break from life, took off, then saw all the hoopla about my alleged abduction, I think I may want to cover it up too and go to any extent.to do so. She was in deep with all the media attention, prayers, and most of all, fundraising. Redding has a very small town feel. The humiliation would be horrible if people found out she willingly took off after all the crap these people did for her. She, and her family would be shamed out of this town!
As the Sheriff said, he cannot come up with a motive. It’s not a normal thing for two grown women to abduct and torture a random girl, then let her go. What did they get out of this? Scarring someone is temporary. She can get a tattoo to cover it, or get laser surgery (I’m sure someone will donate those services to her). Just what was the point of this? Was this revenge for her racist views on social media? No motive, no real description and cannot point out the vehicle from the surveillance tapes is very suspicious. Let’s all watch Keith do more damage to the case tomorrow night. People who want revenge or justice against someone who hurt the one they love would never, ever compromise an investigation.

Listen, if you didn’t like this blog, you would have stopped reading long ago. Clearly you want the information, and then want to criticize those who provide it for you. Completely logical.
And as someone who didn’t grow up in an affluent community (and yet learned my writin’, just like Ericka!) I can tell you with great confidence that the only “ghetto” aspect of this entire situation are the Papinis, and the fact that they think they deserve something for nothing by scamming everyone.

@don’t spread ugliness – take into account that some of us HAVE had family members who went through way worse than this alleged abduction. In my opinion there is only one person who knows what really happened to Sherri, and that’s Sherri herself. YOU don’t even know what happened to her because you weren’t there.
Trying to fit the puzzle pieces together is turning into one wonky looking puzzle. One strange thing after the other makes people ask questions – it’s human nature.
Are two women out there really abducting strangers off the street and torturing them? I sure as hell hope not because that’s scary! I didn’t wake up one morning and decide this was all made up, I just tried to make sense out of it and that’s proving to be a challenge. I think as someone who knows her you should probably not be reading things like this to save your sanity – you won’t like what people have to say and people will say it regardless.
PS what is up with that Cameron guy’s video?! Staging an abduction of a pretty blonde girl and keeping her in some scary dark room? Just another puzzle piece that doesn’t fit. And why is Keith about to go on 20/20? The sheriff already said he compromised the investigation with the things he said so it makes no sense for him to still be speaking. Another piece that doesn’t fit. And yes, you can brand yourself, bind yourself, etc. There have been numerous fake adbuctions involving those very things – Google it.
That’s enough for now. This whole situation makes my brain hurt.

It seems far fetched that people would target pretty SAHM’s as a demographic. What would be the purpose? Lifestyle envy? Ugh. If they only knew! Being a SAHM is not glamorous. It’s wonderful, but hard work. I’ve been one for 21 years, with 6 children (5 mine, 1 adopted), and I homeschool. My husband is a pastor, so we’re in the public eye. I drive a Lexus, am fashionable, a redhead and often told I’m beautiful. But people don’t see the laundry and cooking that a family of 8 requires, or the fishbowl existence of being in ministry. Being a SAHM was very difficult when I was a new mom with 3 kids under the age of 3. Pictures can look perfect, and families can be genuinely happy and blessed, but we are all just struggling to make it. I would hate to think that Sherri would be targeted for being a pretty mom. That sounds like a personal jealousy situation, rather than people targeting random mom’s. ♥

@dont spread ugliness No one would want their loved one tortured and taken away for 3 weeks. If you can’t admit these circumstances are odd, then you’re fooling yourself. Mexican girls kidnap petite blonde girl for no apparent reason, torture her, then let her go? That’s not a common occurrence! Maybe blast her on social media (if this wasn’t a random thing), punch her if they see her in public, but not all this. This case is not normal, so of course people are going to question it. It’s being done on a page that doesn’t involve Sherri (your loved one). This page belongs to someone who lives nowhere near Sherri. She doesn’t have a motive for discussing this other than it’s not normal, and some of Sherri’s older posts were a little “white supremacist”. That’s not acceptable out of anyone. We live in the US which is very diverse. No one race is better than the other.
I think you should be concerned with Sherri, and not this page. Focus on her, and let people question all they want, since nothing really makes sense. The details are none of our business, but if these two girls are out randomly picking up white girls to torture, it is a public safety issue which is our business.

Someone was actually tortured for weeks. If this happened to your daughter or sister or spouse or anyone you know, would you dare accuse them of lying? What is the purpose of your accusation? I hope that none of you ever have to experience a fraction of what has happened to this girl, or those you love. But realize please, your words and blogging are public and those you accuse of malice are actually suffering and you are just sitting behind a keyboard assuming you know everything.

Look, the fashion photographs of Sherri grinning ear to ear, and the over-the-top Facebook and social media presence, all point to a family that was trying to project an image of bliss and happiness that probably didn’t match reality, but that’s a far cry to say that the kidnapping was made up. The police are now saying she was branded on her skin with some sort of message, there were burns and bruises on her body, and she weighed 87 lbs. If some folks are saying the facts we’ve been told don’t add up, I agree, because we don’t have all the facts to add them up. But for those who are saying they think this was “likely” or “probably” made up, I think that reasoning is faulty until we learn more.

It seems the family is mad since some are doubting Sherri’s story. As a white girl with long blonde hair, I would like to know if we (the blondes) are in danger, or if this was random, or not real at all? Are there 2 Hispanic females who are hating on, and hurting blonde girls for no apparent reason? The public wants to know, and I don’t think the family should be offended. It’s very unusual for women to drive around abducting random women based on their skin and hair color. It’s very unusual for them to kidnap at all. When females kidnap, it is usually a young child or baby that they want to raise as their own.
I’m very confused (as you all are) where the long blonde locks went if a passerby noticed her hair on Thanksgiving morning as she drove by? I don’t know what her story is, but this is all very unusual. The Sheriff needs to get to the bottom of this so we, the public, will know if we have any reason to be concerned. It’s as if now that she’s home, the family would prefer all this media attention and police investigation to stop. They haven’t said that, but based on actions, or lack thereof, it comes off that way. I do not know this girl, or know her prior mental history, but this account of what happened is truly weird!
Was she the one who was in the vehicle with two men in Anderson CA? If so, where were these two vicious ladies? It’s okay for the public to want to know. It was the public who went to great lengths to get her back home. I hope answers come soon!

Hi, I was just lurking on this site and noticed something odd that Dooby posted about this case. In her marriage blog (Dooby’s 2nd posting @ 10:38 ), Sherri mentions how Keith was her 1st kiss, how when she moved back to Redding, he “bumped” into her, then he called HER the next day claiming SHE wanted to take him out again. It sounds like maybe this Keith guy has not been the true love she thought he was but possibly her stalker. He just happened to have all of the notes she gave him in 8th grade? Maybe things weren’t so perfect, Sherri tried to leave and Keith got “revenge”? Maybe he is abusive. Abusive men are very into having a “perfect” looking wife and perfect appearances. It would also explain why he needed to appear in the blog as the only/ first man in her life. She is wording all of this as if he is her first and I am wondering why, especially if she is in the middle of a divorce? Is he super possessive? He might be from all the Barbie-doll poses and pictures. “Look at my perfect family and wife” type of guy. “She’s a “Supermom”. Maybe it was him all along. Psychos can pass a Poly with ease. He may have snapped at the thought of losing his precious “property” especially for another man.. Just some food for thought. She doesn’t sound like a very deep or good person to begin with and if my theory is correct these two are both a big old mess, especially if they are racists, but no woman deserves abuse either.

Ms. Papini has a damning social media trail to be sure..
If it was truly racially motivated, karma can be a bitch..
Sm comments from those claiming to know her, as well as her own online presence indicate a cray cray spoiled racist drama queen always looking for and expecting all eyes on her , with a penchant for exaggeration and/or dishonesty.
Either she was taken for being racist, she did it for recognition/fame $$, or she is hardcore and asked the man with the “big black cock” ( sorry had to interject the funny go to line from Ted 2( the crude teddy bear)) to rough her up before ending her vacation.. The weight loss could be mistreatment in captivity or simply meth.. I seriously posit the big black cock theory because a social move up ( cheating with a more affluent white man than hubby) might not necessarily be grounds for faking an abduction, as her family might approve of the arrangement but would not approve of some chocolate or poor love on the side..
Another remote possibility is that she had a mental breakdown as she is known for being unstable. Possibly she was cray cray in the woods foraging for food and lost weight and tied and beat herself but not likely lol Being a “supermom” might possibly push a perfectionist over the edge of stressed if they fall short of self imposed expectation…

But I’m on Websleuths constantly looking at info so I know a real abduction is still on the table, but proof is in the puddin’. We KNOW Todd Kohlhepp kidnapped Kala Brown and held her in a storage container and she lived to tell – we have details for law enforcement, Kohlhepp himself, the evidence is there, etc. Where’s the evidence of Sherri’s abduction? I’m just not seeing it yet. Oh, and people saying she couldn’t have bound herself – yes you can and obviously you can with help. Can you get battered after jumping out of a moving vehicle?

Hey Banished. I lurk every once in awhile at the Websleuths site when I want ALL the information on a crime because I know it will all be there. The whole story, not just what the MSM copies and pastes off each other. So it’s been frustrating on the Papini case because I see many of you mention an “incident” but you can’t say what it is or about a “site you cannot mention” etc. So it’s very unfortunate in this case that all your sleuthing is being deleted. I think the things Ericka has posted here about the Skinheadz site, etc is relevant. And not victim bashing if it is Papini’s own words. Anyway, glad Ericka is posting everything so we can get more insight into Papini’s state of mind. Glad so many people are commenting here. I guess we just wait now until law enforcement makes a move.

I kinda hope it comes out as a real hoax so I can say FU websleuths for deleting my posts!!! I am still on the hoax train because I haven’t seen anything to prove she was abducted but I’ve seen a whole lot of weird shit that makes me think she staged this either with help (likely) or on her own. If she planned this just to run away or whatever, that pisses me off because people are actually abducted, raped, murdered on the daily and a lot of time and resources went into finding her ass. If I’m wrong, then someone should prove me wrong. Where’s Dr. Phil when I need him?

She loves being the “victim” but the kind who pushes through against the odds So she can be a hero/survivor. She craves attention. Her father in law Rod Rodriguez is known in this town for owning tons of property aka super rich. That bankruptcy link is from the restaurant he helped a local chef open in 2007 called Rivers. Rod spent millions on the property and restaurant it was gorgeous. Just bad economy & timing. Anyway he’s probably the “anonymous” contributor of the 50k ransom is my point.

My intuition on this one tells me Sherri is completely nuts. I think she faked an abduction in 2006 and now did it again. I think the families response was a huge show to Sherri to prove they care about her. She was probably overwhemed and had a crazy break and ran off, faking an abduction. Husband immediately played into it saying he was sure she was abducted. The rest was a bad tv cop show plot to lure her back home. Her mother shares recipies and plays facebook games while she is gone, they all immediately scramble to validate her worth as supermom, they don’t tell the kids, but promise them she will be back by Thanksgiving. We have all been wrapped around the pinky of a world class looney bird if you ask me.

I know something is awry with this story.. but I feel like the ransom was actually paid. I mean, they can not publicize that information, think of the backlash, others thinking of similar scheming plots… this is information that the public including media can not be privy too, otherwise the compromise is to great. I feel like the abductors (whether known or not) did reach out, received their ransom, and dropped her on side of road. The reason they chose her, no clue. Maybe someone knew her, or knew that family. At first thought this was all BS.. she ran off with some guy, hiatus, whatever. But after rethinking, it is plausible that the non disclosure that we are seeing, might be because the anonymous ransom actually worked. As stated, it had no strings attached. No LEO, no questions, how we can assume it was not paid? Because LE said it wasnt? What are they going to say? It was paid, and all lived happily ever after? Especially when she was released almost directly after the offer expired….As for 2 hispanic woman? Who knows.. accomplices, non-existent, whatever… they are going to say whatever needs to be said to keep the public at bay…

She is strong and with God’s help can recover from this traumatic experience, but it will be very, very difficult. If you don’t have something positive to say, please don’t comment. When the family and law enforcement can share more, they will.”
Someone named Rod Rodriguez III commented the following”This post from “Sherri Papini” should have never been made due to some of the statements it contains and I’m very disappointed that it was and request it be deleted. This Sherri Papini account is NOT operated or maintained by the real Sherri.”

If the motive was financial, why wouldnt they have someone in on it, and offer a tip that led to her? Thus collecting the 100k reward??? The fact she was found AFTER the time frame allowed to collect it actually makes me think this “scheme” was NOT for money! And what I took from her statement is that she was DROPPED OFF by two latinas, not kidnapped. Still odd, but who knows. I dont find it suspicious at all that she gave a “so called” description of the “people” involved… as I think most people WOULD try and get their captors caught.First, so they would not be able to attack someone else/herself again, but secondly so they get the punishment they deserve!And last so you arent in constant fear since they are still out there! What I find odd is that in the beginning she was labeled “voluntarily missing adult” with the justice department. Wondering what made them switch to “suspicious circumstances.” AND I would like to know if she was an avid, regular jogger, Or did she randomly go for a jog this ONE time and get “abducted”, I honestly think that would a HUGE clue. Anyways, great article. I agree something fishy here, but I will hold my judgement til more info comes out. Keep hearing conflicting reports she was badly injured and chained up, so idk really. If she was REALLY hurt and sexually assaulted, she would have been in the hospital for a long time. So I dont think she was injured very bad, if AT ALL. And that Facebook post, WEIRD AF. “Im sorry I couldnt stop but I called the cops, I know you needed help” Absolutely Bizarre! this whole thing just makes no sense, who kidnaps someone, keeps them for a month, feeding them, for abs no reason? No ransom money? Not a sexual motive? NOTHING. I think the husband knew she had a second life, or a side piece, and didnt want that getting out to the public. I dont think he had anything to do with it tho, and really just wanted to find her without embarrassing his family. But Im rambling.. Great post.

The skinhead letter was obviously written by her, same city, same maiden name. Now they have also produced a picture of Sherri from the same website. She wrote the letter, all the family members and friends trying to astroturf social media and the net with claims of the opposite are obviously lying and trying to cover for something, and for what reason?
It seems to me Sherri’s family already knows she is lying and is now trying to shield her from the inevitable criticism and hate that will be coming her way. From the sounds of things she has said nothing to the cops other than “two Mexicans in an SUV kidnapped me at gunpoint”. Any real victim after being taken from their family for three weeks would want to do everything in their power to help apprehend the suspects.
Additionally, CHP has cameras in their cars that record everything. Their finding of Sherri will be on video, the video should be available to the public through a FOI request or similar media request. Some media member or blog author should seek this.
Lastly, CHP while very good at traffic related investigations, rarely, if ever are involved in serious criminal investigations. I would not put much weight in the dispatch traffic of her being “heavily battered”. CHP loves to pass off criminal cases when they happen upon them and would want nothing to do with this case, which is why the called the local sheriff so quickly. The fact she was quickly cleared from the hospital supports that she was not seriously injured.

Excellent blog posts about this bizarre story, Ericka! You’ve got the scoop AND receipts.
Like you, I don’t have a good idea of who Sherri actually IS. I sort of had the idea that she was a conservative wifely type, who lets the man rule the household, etc. But I found this: a Sherri Graeff is listed as a “contributor” (page 20) to a feminist women’s clinic (sort of like Planned Parenthood). It seems to be pro-choice, which rather shocked me.
Now, it may not be the same Sherri Graeff, but there only seems to be one Sherri Graeff in that area.
Anyway, your blog is awesome and I’ll be checking back often for updates.

About Redding CA. Don’t worry peeps. If this girl is found to be lying (no one here wants to publicly say that right now), she will be so ostracized and hated that she will need to move away! Redding is a bible town that acts very small, though the population is quite large. This town quickly raised money, and awareness for her, but if there’s any BS, they will chase her out of town! A lot of police man hours were invested in this. Tax payers will pay for all the investigating, searches, overtime, etc. In addition to all this publicly funded work that was done, people were donating in large chunks. A local dentist handed over 5k to the family. So many donated to what they thought was a good cause.
Something doesn’t add up here, but trust me, if this is a hoax, she will be a very miserable lady. People here are quick to love in a crisis, but they’re also the first to hate if given cause. The churches were all praying, signs were on every corner, and people were literally in tears when they heard she was found.
What doesn’t add up to me the most is the Sheriff states she was jogging around 2pm at Sunrise and Old Oregon Trail where her phone was found when she was abducted. Sherri has confirmed that herself. A couple weeks ago, the Sheriff’s office got neighbor surveillance and watched it during those hours. Sherri was never spotted. Most of us believed that someone must have come to her door and took her based on that fact. If she was jogging, and abducted, why wasn’t she seen on foot on surveillance?
They really need to see if some disposable phones were purchased prior to this. If this is a hoax, she was in contact with someone. If this turns out to be a hoax, I guarantee you people will be outraged! As a girl who has lots of German blood in her, who also lives in Redding, I do not share in the Skinheadz beliefs. My ancestry does not define who I am, or what I believe in. I am me, not some bloodline. I don’t want all of us to be known as racists when most of us are not.

Suggestion:
1. Police should obtain Sherri’s cell phone records… numbers called and received, texts sent and received numbers. ID all the numbers and who they belong too. Interview those people. If the disappearance was planned, it’s highly likely there was some phone coordination with those who assisted. Those records should be available from the phone company even if records kept on the phone were deleted.
This idea should be given to the police investigators.
2. She might have been near home area the whole time she was missing.
3. Where she was dropped off is suspect too… near Interstate 5 where it’s a simple drive north and home? And simple to drive south to drop her off.
4. If she was “super mom” why were her kids in daycare?… so she could jog?
Much of it does not add up.

I’ve also been following this case and I’m wondering if anyone can shed some light on the claim that Keith Papini just purchased a new Ford F-150 truck. It can’t be true, can it?
I read the information was discovered by a member of WebSleuths . Many of the members there have done an excellent job uncovering information that was long gone via defunct websites, etc.and it is frustrating to see all of that work deleted due to censorship. Does anyone have a link or any further information about this new truck?
Also, if it is true that Sherri faked this entire “abduction” and subsequent releaseI hope people will band together and apply pressure for her to be charged with every applicable penal code in the book. I know several people who donated and it makes me sick when I realize they may have very well given up their hard earned money for a hoax.
Last of all, thanks Erika for providing an uncensored platform.

So she watched Gone Girl and concocted a tale of her own. No Amazing Amy here just Sensational Sherri spinning yarns and bs for the masses.

Interesting…but hard to follow. “If” what is said is true, how could she pull this off by herself? Was the whole family in on it? “If” so, what were they hoping to gain? “If” this is a “scam”…and the police find out…the shit will hit the fan. But what “if” this is for real and she was kidnapped? Could it be that the 2 woman who took her had a bone to pick? Could it be that they knew her and wanted to even a score? Could it be that they did not want to kill her, but put her in her “place”?
Interesting…I have yet to hear anyone call in the FBI. In most kidnappings that hits the news as this story did, the FBI is called in at some point. I did not see her face on this page:
https://www.fbi.gov/wanted/kidnap
I wander why? There is an FBI office in Redding, Ca. Why did not someone bring them in on this case?

I came over from Websleuths after we got grounded again. I’ve been following this case from the very beginning and something seemed off from the get-go. I went from thinking her husband killed her to thinking she went berserk and ran off with a new boy toy to then finding/reading her blogs, her racists diatribes, seeing how she followed a pagan channel on YouTube, etc. which got my head all sorts of messed up. My friend and I called it before it happened – we knew she’d say her “abduction” had someone to do with non-white folk. I honestly don’t know what to believe right now but I don’t believe this girl was randomly abducted and let go. If someone abducted her to teach her a lesson it wouldn’t surprise me if it turned out to be someone she pissed off from her past. Running off with a boy toy is still near the top of my list though. At any rate, this girl needs some serious therapy, that money needs to be donated elsewhere (actual people who need it), and the truth needs to come out so I can quit wondering. Thanks for not grounding people for having thoughts! 🙂

You want to go out, have some wild time for three weeks, that is fine, but don’t make up some huge lie and terrify your community by saying you were snatched by some random Mexicans. The cops need to start revealing her lies and stop protecting her.

I live in Redding CA. I, too saw her posting about the “Latina girls” and how they fought and had racial tension. I do find something odd about this case. Two Latina women took her at gunpoint? She wasn’t hurt, and was set free on Thanksgiving of all days? Now, either this is an old grudge or something is really off here! I am also a petite blonde Mom. I know of many missing person cases that did not get this sort of media attention or the money this family has received. I find it very sad. All people, of all shapes, sizes, races, and ages deserve this attention! I’m a white girl who is no better than anyone else. Sherri obviously had some real issue’s growing up here. I don’t know why? I don’t know anyone who went through something like this who lives here! She said her Father was called a “Nazi”, but why? That’s just not normal talk unless there’s a reason for it.
There’s something very unsettling about this case. I am glad she is home, but the circumstances are bizarre! Most women, do not kidnap like this. I think we all have some sort of kinship, especially if you’re a Mother. If women don’t like each other, they usually take it out verbally. Something is weird here.
For those who are saying this blogger is “racist”, why? What has she done besides pointing out Sherri’s own words? It is a fact that men, women, and children of other races do not get this kind of media attention. I’m a white girl stating these facts. Whether you’re a Mom, or a prostitute off the street, your life has value! Every missing person is loved by somebody. I don’t know what the circumstances are with Sherri Papini, but I hope we find out. In 3 weeks, almost 50k was donated to the Papini family. Keith missed 3 weeks of work, and will probably miss another 2 at most. That’s a lot of extra cash for a family of 4 who has scraped by on his 30k annual salary. Will they donate it to another missing person case as they should? I doubt it…

Thank you for allowing us to speak your opinion. The Websleuths thread has been closed down. They got mad because many commenters were saying that something isn’t right with Sherri’s story. And FYO…, they’ve deleted a lot of posts with info that we dug up. I’m not blaming the victim, because no one deserves to be abducted. But have followed this story from the beginning and just feel something is strange.
When the racist writings were found many of us did extensive searches to determine if there might have ever been another Sherri Graeff in the Shasta Lake area, but we can’t find one. If there was and we missed it- then shame on us, for sure! When you post something like that online, you open yourself up to lots of hate. So many have wondered if her disappearance was connected to her views. Possibly retaliation by someone.
Then there is the issue with her writing about her wedding day as if she’s a blushing virgin. When actually she’s a divorcee. Possibly she’s ashamed of some of her past actions and has attempted to remake herself. If so, then I fully support and respect this. But to say, “I’ve never lived with boy before,” is a lie and makes her sound delusional.

I want to see her brought home to her kids and don’t mean any of this in a bad way but I just think every option needs to be explored because I believe someone she knew took her and someone that is in their inner circle that the husband doesn’t want to believe would do that which is why he says a low life did yet her family seems to act as if it’s someone she knew. I think she had the gun and no social media really because of a stalker or something like it and maybe it’s why she left her job at AT&T and they moved back. And she was selling things in posh mark and other sites so perhaps some creep showed up to buy something. I suggest reading the logs for the reading sherriff because it lists a lot of weird stuff even someone finding a shoe and underwear and a check book and twine and a knife in a rock up a dirt road with a shack back behind it and then something about someone being kicked off the search party for being weird and lying and saying they knew her. And various other stuff. To me it’s weird that they didn’t check the lake or cement quarry as far as I know and as far as the ransom goes I don’t think the donor or the money exist and it’s all to gain gamble and his church of bethal publicity. Cause what rich person with money to give aaay to a stranger can’t buy a phone with call waiting to get the calls? And what person goes oh well once I leave town the deals off(even though now magically it isn’t) and since the letter technically came in right after she went missing the Wednesday they spoke of should have been last week. Also maybe someone close to her is who killed the Tara smith girl from high school who she knew and she could be a sister of based on photos and who I’ve read on some things may have dated her husband back in school so if that’s true I think the killer or abductor is someone close to her husband and he just either doesn’t think that or doesn’t want to believe it. And it seems like he left work early that day as if when she didn’t reply he worried and ran home so that makes me think they also had some idea of someone stalking her… and if it’s a neighbor or just anyone close then they probably know her schedule of jogging(but why didn’t dogs pick up the scent?) and knew how many sex offenders are in the area and even near their home and knew they’d be the first suspects and the various drug addicts or homeless people. And the cops not telling anything comes off as they know who could be the person but fear if they tell anyone even the family that they might without knowing it tell this person details about it that tells them they’re onto the guy and so he lawyers up and they don’t get evidence to arrest him. Whoever it is will be likely to get comfortable and mess up but if they are family friends they’d ask how the case is to find out any info and then the cops could not be able to get the proof or evidence they need. And this clearly isn’t this persons first time doing this because it’s too calculated. And she clearly didn’t go on any jog and likely t happened in the home or the half wrapped gift was because she got interrupted by the door or the mail or whatever it may be. Despite not being a member of that forum I’ve been reading all the threads and this case just makes no sense. I hope for her kids that she’s alive. And Redding seems very dangerous.

She was married before? Hmmm something she said inside of her blog made me think that she had never been married before or in a serious relationship.

I’m so glad I am not the only one that found that photo creepy. When I first saw it, before the article was found, I thought that picture may be showing the real Sherri. Something is off here. Also, her “father in law” is Rod Rodriguez… Doesn’t sound whitebread to me. At the time that Sherri would have written the blog she was not with Keith. She divorced her first husband in 2007, while living with Keith. Yet, in her marriage blog she sounds like a freaking blushing virgin. There is a lot more going on here.

I guarantee it was written by her. Lol that’s why the Facebook is gone. Look at the picture. She thinks too highly of herself. I’m not trying to be a jerk, and here it is I’m a black chick writing about her And trying to spread the word to find out what happened to her, and she probably doesn’t even like black people. Go fucking figure!

Just weird!!!!!! Makes this whole thing so much more bizarre and suspicious. I think this is why we aren’t hearing more personal info about her. Her ideals are scary, if that was written by her.

Ericka I was looking at pictures. She is very comfortable in front of the camera. Has the photographer been looked into?

Well like I said, its too convenient that he found it. I ASSUMED that they went deep into the phone information because they cleared Keith, but ive also heard that the police department aint that thorough. I wonder if the FBI will uncover more

Here is the thing….The phone that was found….how new was it? Did someone switch her phone? Did they ping her location? How fast was she moving when her pings were going? That text she sent him was weird. Are you coming home for lunch? What time did he go to work? It had to be after 8:30 am for a 1:30 lunch break. I have a feeling they need to look deeper into her cell phone.
