Yall keep bringing this stuff and people keep posting. But I’m getting a little bit confused about what really happened that night. Guys I know you are probably tired of it. But what is going on with Tom Bosenko? Yall know him I don’t. I understand that he doesn’t want to seem partial, but is he flip flopping?
We were just told not to doubt that she was kidnapped, but then he says WE NEVER phrased it that way. Ok fine. How was she chained to something and able to walk? When the FIRST REPORT came through, I believed that account. The woman said she didn’t look hurt. They pulling a fast one on us. She walked to a church? Oh bless her.
Tell me what is the FIRST thing that a detective can do to find 2 Latino females? How do you search for them with NO DESCRIPTION? YOU racially profile. Thats how. And that aint cool.

Shasta County Sheriff Tom Bosenko today shed more light on the Thanksgiving rescue of Sherri Papini after she was missing for three weeks.
A driver called 911 after finding Papini, of Mountain Gate, about 4:30 a.m. Thanksgiving on a road near Interstate 5 in Yolo County. She’d been missing since Nov. 2 and described her alleged abductors as two Hispanic women with a gun.
When asked to elaborate on scanner reports that Papini, 34, was found “chained to something,” Bosenko noted that his agency has not phrased it that way.
“We weren’t specific on how she was restrained,” he said. “After being released, dropped off, however you want to refer to it, she walked to a nearby church, and then nobody was there, and then walked to I-5 near Road 17, where she flagged down a motorist.”
While the same dispatch reports indicated she was “heavily battered,” Bosenko also would not specify what kind of injuries Papini had. But he did confirm the type of injuries that get someone “treated and released,” as Papini was.
“When you say, ‘treated and released’ … no different than if you went up to the ER for a sprained ankle, they treated you and released you. Now, if you had a compound fracture due to that bone being broken, then you’d probably be admitted, have to stay for a few days,” Bosenko explained.
He also said his earlier use of the word “assault” to describe Papini’s injuries was based on the “heavily battered” comment.
“We’re not providing the details, other than they were non-life threatening and that she was treated and released,” he said of the injuries.
Alison Sutton, a driver who said she saw Papini on the side of the road and called 911, told the New York Daily News that Papini “didn’t look like she was hurt, but she did look scared.”
She told the News that Papini was waving some type of fabric for help and “was not appropriately dressed for as cold as it was.”
Bosenko said Papini’s description of her alleged captors was “very limited,” and he would not say whether she had seen them or may have been blindfolded.
“At the time, again, she gave us very limited information of the suspects, and part of that was based on her trauma, emotional trauma,” he said, noting that “sometimes the mind can block off traumatic events from recollection.”
Bosenko said people should always be cautious when in public and preferably exercise in pairs or groups, but they should also remember that “abduction, whether it be targeted or random, is rare.”
What else is either unknown or not being released:
- Whether Papini was sexually assaulted
- Whether Papini was wearing the same clothing she had on when she went missing
Investigators had “somewhat lengthy of an interview” with Papini today, Bosenko said, though the details of that interview were not immediately available.
He said he didn’t know whether they’ll interview her again.
“We don’t have information if this was a targeted abduction or if it was a random act,” Bosenko said.
His investigators “worked through the Thanksgiving holiday, including the weekend” to find the ones allegedly responsible for Papini’s disappearance, Bosenko said.
That includes continued reviews of surveillance footage and cellular tower information, he said.
…
Tom Bosenko aint no joke. His resume is extensive.
Sheriff Bosenko has over 30 years of active, progressive participation and experience with the Shasta County Sheriff’s Office. Prior to his election he was the Patrol Division Captain. His duties included: planning, organizing, directing, and coordinating division activities. Division activities included: patrol operations, school resource officers (Youth Services), D.A.R.E., S.W.A.T., Shasta Anti-Gang Enforcement (SAGE), Safe Streets detail, and K-9 Unit.
As a lieutenant, he commanded the South County/Anderson Patrol Station (largest in the Sheriff’s Office) with 26 employees and supervisors. He oversaw the Youth Services Unit and supervised the development of the Safe School Initiative. He also assisted in the development of the Sheriff’s Office Community Safety Plan.
As a sergeant, Tom had several assignments which provided development and diversity in preparation for future positions. In addition to patrol operations, he supervised in jail operations and the Community Oriented Police Problem Solving (COPPS) Unit. As administrative sergeant working directly for the sheriff and undersheriff, he developed policies and procedures, conducted research, and investigated personnel matters. Tom has served as a S.W.A.T. member and team leader, dive team member, field training officer (FTO), and K-9 Unit coordinator and handler.
Tom received his bachelor of science degree in Criminology from California State University Fresno in 2000, graduating with high honors. He attended the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) National Academy in 2001. His academic emphasis at the academy was leadership and organizational management. He completed the California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) Law Enforcement Command College in 2004. The program focused on organizational leadership skills, knowledge needed to anticipate and prepare for the future, and strategic planning. As a sergeant, Tom completed the POST Supervisory Leadership Institute. He completed the POST Basic Law Enforcement Academy in 1979 and received his associate of arts degree in Administration of Justice from Shasta College in 1978. Tom has earned over 2,500 hours of training from POST and other providers throughout his career. A lifelong learner, he continues with his training and education.

She won’t fool him. Guys like this can spot a lie miles away. Now I don’t know if hes as sharp as he used to be, mainly because hes the Sheriff. Thats a more backstage approach to Law Enforcement. But I’m curious to see how this plays out.
James, there is a comment from someone claiming she was friends with Sherri from another site and she doesn’t think the racist blog sounds like her, but it seems like no one really knows her:
“I was very good friends with Sherri in high school, and we spent a ton of time together. This entire article is fabricated. Aside from the fact that our high school had like 5 Latino people in it, I don’t recall her getting into even a single fight. One thing I learned about Sherri is that at any point she lives multiple realities, and she doesn’t ever really let them meet up. In school she claimed her dad and mom were abusive toward her, among other family issues. Well here she’s claiming they were all love and support. Gah, all of this just smacks of the drama and attention seeking that drove our friendship apart so many years ago, but now on an almost national scale… seriously though nobody will ever know who she really is.”

First, I must thank Ericka for this blog and for keeping me entertained for days with the research and updates on this case! I haven’t been able to stop reading the spilled tea and the comments, so props to your readers too.
Second, I absolutely believe something is up. I’ve been holding back, but after reading the husbands statement today, I had to say something. I don’t know if it’s just me, but in reading this article (http://abcnews.go.com/US/sheriff-confirms-husbands-chilling-details-sherri-papinis-condition/story?id=43840556), I kind of get the feeling that the sheriff didn’t know that the husband would be making this statement, which leads me to believe they probably aren’t being very cooperative with authorities (very Ramsey-esque, if you will).
If there is truly a threat out there, all of the women of Redding deserve better than this…they’re all at risk by not being provided more information on the captors and what to look out for. Someone needs to speak up, and soon.

The Most Beautiful Woman In Town
Cass was the youngest and most beautiful of 5 sisters. Cass was the most beautiful girl
in town. 1/2 Indian with a supple and strange body, a snake-like and fiery body with eyes
to go with it. Cass was fluid moving fire. She was like a spirit stuck into a form that
would not hold her. Her hair was black and long and silken and whirled about as did her
body. Her spirit was either very high or very low. There was no in between for Cass. Some
said she was crazy. The dull ones said that. The dull ones would never understand Cass. To
the men she was simply a sex machine and they didn’t care whether she was crazy or not.
And Cass danced and flirted, kissed the men, but except for an instance or two, when it
came time to make it with Cass, Cass had somehow slipped away, eluded the men.
Her sisters accused her of misusing her beauty, of not using her mind enough, but Cass
had mind and spirit; she painted, she danced, she sang, she made things of clay, and when
people were hurt either in the spirit or the flesh, Cass felt a deep grieving for them.
Her mind was simply different; her mind was simply not practical. Her sisters were jealous
of her because she attracted their men, and they were angry because they felt she didn’t
make the best use of them. She had a habit of being kind to the uglier ones; the so-called
handsome men revolted her- “No guts,” she said, “no zap. They are riding on
their perfect little earlobes and well- shaped nostrils…all surface and no
insides…” She had a temper that came close to insanity, she had a temper that some
call insanity. Her father had died of alcohol and her mother had run off leaving the
girls alone. The girls went to a relative who placed them in a convent. The convent had
been an unhappy place, more for Cass than the sisters. The girls were jealous of Cass and
Cass fought most of them. She had razor marks all along her left arm from defending
herself in two fights. There was also a permanent scar along the left cheek but the scar
rather than lessening her beauty only seemed to highlight it. I met her at the West End
Bar several nights after her release from the convent. Being youngest, she was the last of
the sisters to be released. She simply came in and sat next to me. I was probably the
ugliest man in town and this might have had something to do with it.
“Drink?” I asked.
“Sure, why not?”
I don’t suppose there was anything unusual in our conversation that night, it was
simply in the feeling Cass gave. She had chosen me and it was as simple as that. No
pressure. She liked her drinks and had a great number of them. She didn’t seem quite of
age but they served he anyhow. Perhaps she had forged i.d., I don’t know. Anyhow, each
time she came back from the restroom and sat down next to me, I did feel some pride. She
was not only the most beautiful woman in town but also one of the most beautiful I had
ever seen. I placed my arm about her waist and kissed her once.
“Do you think I’m pretty?” she asked.
“Yes, of course, but there’s something else… there’s more than your
looks…”
“People are always accusing me of being pretty. Do you really think I’m
pretty?”
“Pretty isn’t the word, it hardly does you fair.”
Cass reached into her handbag. I thought she was reaching for her handkerchief. She
came out with a long hatpin. Before I could stop her she had run this long hatpin through
her nose, sideways, just above the nostrils. I felt disgust and horror. She looked at me
and laughed, “Now do you think me pretty? What do you think now, man?” I pulled
the hatpin out and held my handkerchief over the bleeding. Several people, including the
bartender, had seen the act. The bartender came down:
“Look,” he said to Cass, “you act up again and you’re out. We don’t need
your dramatics here.”
“Oh, fuck you, man!” she said.
“Better keep her straight,” the bartender said to me.
“She’ll be all right,” I said.
“It’s my nose, I can do what I want with my nose.”
“No,” I said, “it hurts me.”
“You mean it hurts you when I stick a pin in my nose?” …

Hi – Im almost ashamed to be commenting on this story and perhaps venting but I do like your page. 1.) I believe she ran off and then hubby is in denial and things snowballed from there. ” She would have no reason to leave”.: He stated during first days. Translation: “Who would want to leave our perfect married life in our perfect home in our perfect little town.” Who? A pretty attention seeking blonde who feels she is better than everyone else and couldn’t stand the boredom in her perfect life. 2.) The description of her from when she was missing stated, ” Sherri Papini was described as 5’4” and 100 pounds…” So today hubby says she lost 13 pounds in 3 weeks? Sounds more like a diet or meth binge.
3.) Oh and sheriff says she was treated and released, comparing her injuries to a sprained ankle. we all know when you sprain your ankle that no reason to go to hospital although some still do. and if eh was so battered and bruised all these 3 weeks then reason would dictate at least an overnight stay in care. RIght?
4.) also I would bet a blood test from the hospital would show some illegal drugs no doubt. Did they hook her up to iv?

Questioning the narrative is never a bad thing. Let’s try not to jump to easiest, most shallow conclusions tho. Ericka, you can definitely trust your intuition that this whole thing is bizarre. Your first blog post re this references feeling she doesn’t have selfish bone in body and thinking her first concern was her babies. I believe that deeply. Having said that i suspect outcome would have been different if this was random. I think you were on right track not trusting the Fil? Something is off but it’s not her. Also read that her mom and fil had the children during ordeal. If he had anything to do with anything it would seem much safer to say it was random at least until kids were back with her?

Someone is lying. According to Friday statements from the witness who called 911 after seeing Sherri Papini on I5, Sherri didn’t look hurt and had long blonde hair. According to Sherri’s husband’s statements this morning, Sherri was covered in bruises and had short blonde hair when she reappeared near the I5 in Woodland (Yolo County).
Story:
On Monday, Alison Sutton spoke to ABC News about her early-morning encounter with Papini on the side of a rural road near Interstate 5.
‘I saw a woman with long blonde hair by the side of the road kind of frantically waving what looked like a shirt,’ she said. ‘I figured if she was willing to risk being hit by a car, she must really need help.’
After seeing Papini standing on the side of the freeway in the dark with no jacket despite the cold weather, and waving her shirt ‘like a flag,’ Sutton drove to the nearest road sign to pinpoint her location and called 911.
‘She didn’t look like she was hurt, but she did look scared,’ Sutton told the paper. ‘It was just luck that I saw her at all.’

I don’t think anyone deserves to be abducted and beaten unless they’ve done the same or worse and gotten away with it. If that’s what happened to Sherri Papini, she has my sympathy. However, I disagree with commenters elsewhere who say the Skinheadz post is irrelevant because it’s over a decade old. I think it’s clear that Sherri Graeff Papini did, in fact, author that bullshit and it’s presumptuous to believe that she no longer holds those same values. And, she did, in fact, voluntarily portray herself to be naive about living with a man when she’d already, in fact, been married and divorced. In my opinion, whatever went down, it most likely revolves around her mindset and activities (past and possibly present) and is not related to sex-trafficking or a random crime of opportunity. We’ll see ( I hope).

If this story is not some insane ploy for attention or fabricated, my thoughts are that perhaps she got into some sort of verbal/physical altercation in weeks prior with some people that we are not aware of. Her Shinheadz blog portrays her as a ranting racist and perhaps she opened her mouth to the wrong people this time. She has admitted to being violent in the past “bashing some girls head into the bleachers”, so we are not dealing with little Miss Innocence here. Her hair was chopped off…well no wonder no one could recognize her for the last three weeks. Honestly, I followed this story from the beginning, BELIEVING, praying and hoping for her safety. My heart went out to her family, especially her children. I am praying this story is valid and she is telling the truth, not only for her sake but for all those who poured their hearts, prayers, searches and pockets out to this family. The only thing I found a little odd about this whole thing is that if you checked her mother’s facebook page during her abduction she was on their playing “online games”. I don’t know, if my kid was missing, I would be WAY too distraught to be playing games and chillaxing….just sayin…There are WAY TOO many women and children who TRULY are missing.

She’s smart enough to not make the story too elaborate, the more complicated you make the story, the harder it is to keep the lies straight.
The phone being wrapped with the headset wire: either carelessly lost it or more likely, whoever picked her up told her to pitch it knowing LEO could triangulate for her location.
Hose clamps and chain is a strange combination for restraint. First, they’re not easily put on, you’ll need a screwdriver or something. Secondly, if they’re on for an extended period of time, they will eventually leave marks on flesh, giving a timetable of events. Another mistake? Probably.

Her phone and computer were wiped clean (why?) and her iphone was found with the headphones wrapped around the phone (not indicative of her running while listening and being grabbed).

Sorry, I’m late to the party. I just started following this story in depth this afternoon. Your blog and the comments left have given me more information than any of the other news stories and postings combined. You’ve done a great job in gathering, reporting and compiling pertinent information about this case.
My take, based on evidence so far, you ask?
I stick to the old adage, “follow the money”. The family knows it’s a hoax. The sheriff knows it’s a hoax. My instinct is that the sheriff is going along with her story to bolster her comfort level with investigators. It’s a dangerous game naming “hispanics” as he did for the reasons you gave in a previous post (racial profiling, etc) but it’s all she gave him to go on so he has to play along in order to gain some of her confidence in him. I’d guess the family is joining with LE to get to the bottom of it.
I’d be looking at the Gamble guy or someone like him. Gamble and the husband have similar facial features. What does the ex-husband look like? Does she have a “type” she’s attracted to? The search warrants for phone records will be most helpful in this case. Even if she used a throw-away phone, chances are good she first started with her everyday phone. I’d be looking at phone records six months to a year old. I’d be looking at the donor of the reverse ransom and anyone that might have access to the GoFundMe account. Closely. Especially the Gamble guy.
I’m pretty sure none of the family is in on it, other than SP but they know she is up to no good, they just can’t prove anything. Yet. And the investigators know she’s up to her neck, they just can’t prove it. Yet.
All things considered, I hope I’m wrong for her kids sake. But I don’t think I am.
You are doing a great job with your blog and I respect the hard work and dedication that is evident in your writing.

I live around here and its such a tight community. Im also married to a local realtor so I get nervous sharing my thoughts publicly. Bosenko’s office never reported she was chained and battered. That was the Yolo county dispatch recordings. What they have maintained all along is that she was assaulted and treated for injuries. Then tonight he revealed the types of restraints (hose clamps on her wrists and 1/4 inch chain on her person somewhere). To me, he is trying to clear up misconceptions about her injuries and making it very clear that she is giving “limited” info to them because she cant “recollect” and that its very “rare” to be abducted. I think he’s finally telling the truth about what they think or know.

I live right between where SP was “taken” and where she was found. Local news also came out with another report this evening, nothing really new. Haven’t they been saying 1 woman was armed? This report now states 2 armed women.

First problem with this version of the story…..there are no churches on county road 17 in Yolo county…nearest one…..4 miles from where she was found. The mystery deepens. They are looking into her on line activities including her rants about Latino women and the are looking into her ex husband!! Now the truth is out there !! This is going to be good……
