Please reanalyze this case now that she has been charged for faking the kidnapping
He heard our cries!!
@@theonlydianer hooray!!
Yes! This one just popped up in my feed randomly. People must be going back rewatching since her arrest. What a psycho this woman is.
This is me from several days ago. I predict that he will reanalyze the case a few days in the future from now..which is about a week in the past, i swear. I'm clearly clairvoyant, and my predictions are always correct.
@@Honey_Daddy 😆
One year later, the hoax is confirmed. You nailed it.
Bahahah.. of course it was a hoax
Dr. Grande nailed the hoax theory-- Sherri was arrested March 3 2022 for falsified statements, etc.
She hooked up with an ex for 3 weeks. Received over $30k in compensation and told police that she was not sexually assaulted so there would be no need for any vaginal or anal swabs. She's openly racist which is why she blamed 2 Hispanic women for her bruises, bad haircut and 'MILF' branding.
I just saw it on the news!
@@melinaesposito3434 "MILF" branding? what's that?
Yes, he did nail it... perhaps, a little _too_ well! :: dramatic chipmunk ::
@@rachiegoodman There have been conflicting reports on what the branding said and where it was on her body, some are saying that the branding was 'MILF'.
Well, here we are in March 2022 & she was arrested today for lying to the FBI and pocketing about 100K between the victim compensation fund from California State and private donors. She was indeed hooking up with some guy in Orange County, CA. I hope they throw the book at her for wasting time and resources that could help someone actually in trouble. She faces up tp 25 years in jail. Spot on, Dr Grande, as per usual!
I am from Redding, and I am disgusted by her.
Plus it makes real vics look less credible … she’s shite.
Did the guy come forward?
@@kanyegang2810 He did a police interview and told them all the details after he was caught. (His DNA was left on her undies which were tested the day she re-appeared)
Jessie Smollett just received 150 days! It should be interesting to see how many days she gets…
Now that she’s been arrested for lying, this can be reevaluated.
I'm here to watch it again for that same reason lol
@@stephaniesaberhagen
Me too!
@@stephaniesaberhagen Me three! :)
Me four! Can't believe it was in 2016. It was a huge year, but the pandemic makes everything seem 2x as far away as it actually was
Yes indeed!
On this episode of "The King of internet Shade," we don't diagnose multiple plant personality, only speculate about where the other plants could be...
Maybe they were 'plantnapped'.
I love how each time Dr. Grande says he was asked to analyze a case, he makes a puzzled face, like "What a weird request, but ok" :D
Lol no one even asks him to analyze these cases, he just chooses them himself.
@@music0cool I suspect he refers to comments and his patrons.
@@music0cool He does get asked in comments all the time to analyze cases.
I always wondered wether he had really been asked about the cases, or if he just says that. I don’t think that he’s literally asked about every single case he covers, but I’ve been wrong before...
The cases are interesting to say the least. (Polygraphs are nonsense.)
“Can you describe your kidnappers?” “... well neither of them had good eyebrows”
Hahaha
😂😂😂
Who are we kidding?! They basically look like all of us in quarantine.
@@deborahsunflower939 I’ve been cutting my own hair and no one has even noticed. Might just save myself the £40 every 6 weeks and continue this.
Lol, me
Dr. Grande, To answer your question in the notes, yes! I would really enjoy your content in podcast form. I’m an artist and I enjoy listening to posts like yours while I work, and having them in longer podcast form would be great. Additionally, I would like to see you discuss pros and cons of different cognitive approaches and medications for different forms of mental illness that are common such as depression and anxiety - if possible (professionally, that may not be) Another great addition might be having guests on your podcasts.
Thank you very much for your content!
I would also love a video on how to find a good psychologist! As in, when you have your first few sessions, how to know whether to stay or go. It's hard to find a good one, and I'm sick of wasting my money. Last psychologist told me my brother was "an awful person", and while he abused me, so I feel that way of course, I feel it's weird for a psychologist to say that considering he was literally a child, albeit older than me. Just think it doesn't help me at all lol. Would love to learn how to spot a good one.
Me too, I’m watching as I drive on my commute to work. I think podcast is fine for me.
Hmmm, it’s pretty obvious that Barb Jacobs’ is showering Dr. Grande with compliments because she wants to be one of his guests on a podcast... good play, adding in there that she’s an ‘artist’.
@@audreyw4862 lol! Well I don’t know about “showering” I just really enjoy his posts especially during the pandemic and spending a LOT of time in solitude. As far as me being a guest that would make zero sense- I was suggesting that more as other experts in psychology, sociology, or people who have succeeded in therapy.
@@audreyw4862 Your comment is uncalled for and reeks jealousy.
Well, you nailed it!!! Sherri Papini is in jail right now for concocting an expensive, but lazy, kidnap hoax.
She is some piece of work. It's unimaginable what she put her family through😡.
I look forward to your updated analysis of her.
I have been following this case since it started. This was from my hometown and from the beginning, I've always thought something was strange about this case. Thank you for doing this analysis on it all. I really do not believe she was kidnapped.
Kidnapped by someone she knows.
You must know so much tell us something about it.
@@tammyjohnson7401 Voluntary kidnapping on her part.
Well you never know. The police didn’t believe the couple in Vallejo, CA and the girlfriend had been kidnapped.
@@nekograce7914 Exactly! The Police even went to Media, saying they were lying and that they'd be sued cause of it. Later, they found out the couple was saying that true.
As "the Dude" said so eloquently, "She kidnapped herself man"
Ed D these lies cannot stand, man:)
She owed money all over town!
quality comment Ed
He asked me to repeat this -
"Her life is in your hands, dude."

Nice comment.
Yes, no dirty water! 😋
@@We_Are_All_Vultures ha! i actually really did laugh out loud! That was super cute! sending hugs your way, Jessica Girl!
You're so nice! Will you adopt me? 🤗 ❤
@@LDiamondz Bless your heart, honey! You're so sweet!
I used to work with Sherri, but she was one of our regional supervisors, so I only met her a few times. I don't know her nearly well enough to say what might have happened, but she was always very nice to us. A bubbly, bright, confident lady. So no matter what happened, I am glad she's OK and I wish her and her family all the best.
I think the best for her family would be to get away from her.
I'm also glad she's safe and back with her family. Her case is so puzzling and so much doesn't add up but ultimately it's her life, her story, and she doesn't owe us an explanation. I want one... but she doesn't owe us internet nerds anything.
@@sdg2450 she owes money to the state authority for all the hours they put into looking for her, she is a crazy.
@@sdg2450 You may be an Internet nerd but I’m just someone concerned about people wasting finite police resources.
I also feel this is most important. She might have made up a story, and run away on her own, but how many disappearances end with the person being found safe? She has some problems, but she's alive. She has people who love her and care about her. To me this is a fairly happy ending.
I greatly appreciate you referring to polygraph tests as nonsense. That is exactly what they are, and I truly wish their use could be outlawed. Any person on the APD spectrum can pass one with flying colors even if they are guilty of the alleged crime, whereas anyone who suffers from anxiety or is of a hypersensitive nature can easily fail polygraph even if innocent. I would imagine that many innocent people would feel freaked out (I know, not a clinical term, lol) just by virtue of being questioned by police. Many absolutely upstanding citizens have an inherent (and well earned) fear of the police and can feel extremely anxious just walking into a precinct. The fact that police keep using polygraphs is a bullying tactic which, in my opinion, only delays the process of getting to the truth.
never agree to take one, ever. never even talk to police, ever. even if you are innocent. invoke the 5th and the 6th immediately.
Right, I feel like for some people, certain questions will make their levels go crazy. Whether they answer truthfully or not
@@erika2m16 Yes! And is very easy to manipulate!
Indeed. I come across like someone who's guilty just when I know that people believe I'm guilty, although I'm not. Just that sense of pressure. I'd probably fail the polygraph test if they'd ask me whether I kidnapped the Lindbergh baby. And thinking of polygraph testing being used is just insane. It's like in Early Modern times they used to think that torture helps to find the truth.
Polygraphs should be defined as "just rattling their cage to see what shakes loose" when used by police with a vested interest towards incrimination rather than verifying information. The idea isn't to qualify any facts, it's just to apply pressure to weakness, create inconsistencies and doubts.
"Hey, is this gonna take a while? I got things to do." 😂😂
I'll make sure to ask that if I ever get kidnapped
It might confuse them for a second, use that spark of a chance to escape 😅
@@LudmilaT. lol you here the "Run" meme 😂
People walk out of ERs all the time, especially when their stories are challenged or scrutinized. Talk to any ER staff.
For sure. And people leave against medics advice all the time. For serious ones, I try to stop them. But what would she really need? IV fluids? She could have gone home and been fine.
@@sarao13579 - I'd say when you're the victim of a 3-week long hostage/kidnapping, are malnourished to the point of losing 28 pounds in 21 days, have a broken nose, had your bruised-up body branded, and cannot really recall everything that lead to your condition, further observation would be the order of the day. I can't imagine her vitals were just dandy when she arrived.
I do, though, find it interesting that there has been no record so far of anyone at the hospital trying to convince her to stay a little longer...
@@endorphinzz
supposed victim
you'd be surprised how much you lose with certain drugs on top of not eating much/fasting
how badly? pretty easy to injure herself or get someone to do it.
Too true. Some people can’t handle being in hospitals. I am one of those people.
@@endorphinzz turns out she lied
The descriptions of the kidnappers highly favor the same looks as her husband and herself.. that’s typical to describe the faces u see everyday when your lying.... I never believed her not for a second... so glad the truth is finally coming out!
Interesting!
As two kidnappers have the opposite qualities, easy to memorize in case the police asked questions:
Young/ old
Thin eyebrows/ thick eyebrows
Curly/ straight
Short hair/ long hair
Earring/ no earrings
Nice( let her go)/ mean( abuser).
Two kidnappers don't have a quality or even a physical feature in common.
@@freyalove3831 Good 👍 point.
You were right…it was a hoax. She was arrested today. I feel so bad for her husband and kids.
My question is where was she really at, and with whom, for the weeks she was "missing".
@@leniselafleur4289 an ex BF
I feel like the husband knew or suspected.
@@leniselafleur4289 in Costa Mesa with a former boyfriend the whole time. All injuries were self-inflicted. The former boyfriend had come forward some time ago so not sure why it took so long to arrest her.
@@kiwimitts2 they connected the male DNA to his mother through her submission to a genealogy DNA analysis company. (Hilarious because they also KNEW ther son had Papini hidden....)
He stated he wasn't going to turn her in but if confronted about it he wouldn't lie.
They had to connect the dots and determine what charges would provide the most justice (mail fraud really going to screw her).
They've got usually one shot to het arrests right.
Updated on the story today, and you hit the nail on the head . She lied! Good job friend. I’ll subscribe!
The neighbours said that Papini had lived at the house for a long time, but no one had ever seen her go for a jog before. But perhaps it was her first time.
Diazepam (Valium), and other Benzos, can cause memory loss and strange behaviour, and paradoxical behaviour, including bad temper and violence.
She was "supposedly" training for a 5k
@@hollystiener16 Yes, I know. But the neighbours said that they’d never seen her go jogging before. It was all lies.
@@MaxPower-js1sk do people normally pay attention to what their neighbors do? I have absolutely no clue what my neighbors do. all I know is that one neighbor has a dog because he barks a lot, and the other neighbor has cats because I've seen them. I don't really take what neighbors say seriously. My neighbor could be a jogger, but just because I have never seen him jog means he doesn't jog. idk. if people know that much about their neighbors then they must be so nosy and have no life but look outside the window to see what they are doing haha
@@a33m3a It must be different in my part of Australia. We would notice if a neighbour started jogging, or if they usually jogged and suddenly stopped. We don’t watch them, but people know the normal rhythms of the neighbourhood. Everybody on our street knows everybody else.
I was thinking histrionic personality disorder. Look at her past behavior, relationships with neighbors/family..
@Jasper Bistro totally agree. Her past behavior shows a pattern of behavior.
Dr. Grande's analysis was spot on-check the news today! What Grande was describing as a scenario with Papini actually happened!
Kinda seems like the kidnapping story was just a way to free herself from the blame of cheating on her husband
That's what I was thinking.
She had some pretty serious injuries though. I'm still undecided.
@@MsWaggydog Yes! And she has no history of cheating exc ponitential meeting with someone, which never occurred. I'm sure police searched her phone & emails & would have seen communications w cheating content.
@@MsWaggydog In 2003 her mother contacted the police because she was self harming and trying to blame her (the mother). She was 21 at the time so it wasn't some teen rage.
@@freethinkeralways Except for that guy from Michigan she was texting and who visited CA a few days prior to her disappearance? And the call to PD from another guy who said she was with him much of the time...hmm.
Was any kind of drug testing done? The weight loss would support the kidnap story, but 22 days of getting high could also account for that.
I was wondering if perhaps the reason she left the hospital so fast was they wanted to test for drugs.
@Cougar Killer you don’t just forget everything bc you are on a drug binge
Blood test is exactly what I was wondering 🤔
The Colombian diet, maybe?
How do we know she lost any weight??? Because she said so????
Thank You for the update. I did not know that she had a past with a previous hubby, running away from home, and accusing her parents or parent of abusing her. This changed my opinion now.
I live for the mix of psychology and true crime!
Facts 👌
Me too
What makes a person do that to themselves... its hard to believe... she wants to be a victim?
@@Happyinmontana initially wanting to frame the husband and then changing her mind? Can't think of another motive apart from what Dr. Grande proposed
The psychology of criminal behavior is the main reason I’m interested in true crime. I want to try and understand why s person becomes a criminal.
@@kathymack3791 me too
I was once very naive and believed what others would say. I never understood WHY people lie until I learned how to play texas hold'em poker and I could lie during the whole game. I learned a lot....
Everytime he says Papini, all I think about is a panini.
Delicious!
Every time he says Papini, I laughed because it sounds funny.

"They engaged in various ... [ pause ] ... activites." Dr. Grande, you kill me!
Wow. How actually spot on this ended up being, and without the investigation info or interviews to go on. This guy needs to get into solving serial killer cases or something.
She’s playing around. !!
Definitely agree with your theory and speculation in a case like this. She left with another man...used many drugs..hence the weight loss then decided she had enough and made up this story for her husband and those that knew her. Goes with her character...lying and emotional instability.
Her nose was broken. Her faceplate was broken. That isn’t a woman who went on a sex spree with another man.
@@jtfike Exactly! The injuries, branding & weight loss are pretty brutal to be self- or willingly inflicted. No woman or man would agree to that. I believe Papini's story.
@@jtfike Maybe she left when he ended up being abusive.
@@freethinkeralways Maybe she went willingly but then escaped when he ended up being abusive.
@@janaslechtova5504 That could be, but leaving expensive phone & earbuds throws me off. I think if she left willingly, she would probably leave expensive phone at home & throw less expensive item (like jacket or hat) on the road. People are attached to their smart phones nowdays...
Who's ready to hear Dr. Grande talk about Marilyn Manson?
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream and analysis of Marilyn Manson!
I doubt it would be that interesting. Cocaine addiction. Done.
Yes. I remember quite a few years back I read an article by a journalist that had spent a day or more interviewing Manson and doing a 'day in the life of' type of thing. Manson had pointed a gun at his head and generally terrorized the guy, and his article sounded like a battered spouse. He sounded star struck, like 'I got to have a gun put to my head by Manson!' and 'I can't believe he would treat me like that' simultaneously.
Omg yes!
@@invisiblebears well said. Rock star life of drugs and alcohol. Usually ends in an odd set of circumstances.
I smell hoax with this. When we got the to gofundme, I made up my mind. The thumbs down are from Ms. Papini and anyone else who benefitted from this hoax. What a waste of police time and money.
Thank you Dr. Grande, have a great week.
He bought himself a new truck, btw. Keith did.
You were right!
Funny thing go check the news about her today !
Absolute shame on her, not least for fabricating the 2 Latina kidnappers. This must have had a divisive effect on the community, with others looking out for "suspicious" Latinas. Also, she caused undue anxiety in the community with the idea of 2 kidnappers out on the loose. Totally selfish.
- If convicted of making false statements to a federal law enforcement officer, Papini faces a maximum statutory penalty of five years in prison and a fine up to $250,000.
- If convicted of mail fraud, she faces a maximum statutory penalty of 20 years in prison and a fine up to $250,000.
You were right! From the very beginning, I’ve always felt this way, but tried my best to give her the benefit of the doubt. Now we’re seeing her for the little liar🤥 she is!
I have always wondered about this case. Looking forward to hearing your perspective!
So… who’s watching this after her arrest?
🤣🤗
This one has always had me puzzled.. this would've made a terrible movie because of the circumstances! Another great video as always, Doc!
@Blues Vibe I was thinking so.... Gone girl right
@Blues Vibe mop pivot xero
Blues Vibe Sorry blues vibe. My cat scrambled over my tablet as I was reading the comments. No speculating here......That's what happened 🙀
Please redo this with the new allegations! She’s been arrested for faking the whole thing.
Omg!! This story is so crazy! Im so glad you covered it!!
NAILED IT !!!! Dr. Grande's theory was spot on over a year ago. This is why I love his channel! ;)
This was such an interesting one and Wow her history is so troubled. This for sure was a scam for the go fund me money.
Wigglebolt If her husband was in on the scam then he is one hell of an actor.
@@camerongage1237 No he’s not, he’s a crappy actor. Watch that 20/20 or Dateline interview he did. He’s smirking and laughing during the entire thing. He also said stupid crap like “My three year old told me “Dad, what’s wrong, you know you can tell me anything”. Right....because three year olds say things like that. These two liars also bought a new truck with the GoFundMe money.
@@lisamarielund6292 I saw the footage when she was missing and he was crying during the interview.
Kidnapped 'pet rock?' Dr. Grande: you know something about what happened to _Rocky??_ 😦
😂😂😂😂😂
So let me me get this right, the kidnappers gave her a jacket that could be used to identify them ? And her phone wasn’t even broken,did she just raise her hands and say take me ? Any defensive wounds from fighting back? Shouldn’t she be dehydrated enough to stay in the hospital at least a day?Ransom demand ? Risked to take her and return her?
Yeah. And nearly all descriptions of her injuries and weight loss were told to the public by her husband, not police. Released the same day, too. Definitely a hoax
@@kkspurck6 Yes the police haven’t said anything beyond the one very vague press conference. I have friends in Redding and weirdly they didn’t even have much recollection of this case when I asked them about it (around a year ago). I figured it’d be some Redding legend with all kinds of theories, but apparently not so. 🤷🏼♀️
@@kkspurck6 she didn’t go to a hospital? That’s definitely suspicious
I always thought she joined that Nvxivm cult where women join to be sex slaves, and they rejected her for not being compliant, leaving her on the side of the road. It is the only explanation that fits everyone's actions. Evidence shows she willingly went (folded up earbuds on phone), husband wasn't involved, police certain these "kidnappers" aren't patrolling the streets snatching more women. The cult was already in the hands of the feds (and don't kidnap women off the street), so the local police would have nothing to do with it. The only problem is that the cult brands their woman on their pubic bone, not the shoulder....
I suppose a lover gone wrong could be an option, but after beating her for a month, starving her, branding her, and providing her his DNA, the situation sounds implausible. People capable of such violence usually don't hesitate to tie up loose ends. Not to mention the police should be worried this freak would harm another woman and they aren't worried at all. The Nvxivm cult on the other hand, collects compromising material on their members, so that they will never tell a soul the truth about what they went through (like Scientology).
@@Andrea-nom she went to a hospital. It was stated in the video, on any google search and in this very post. Don’t quit your day job to be an investigator.
Please update your analysis on her and this case Dr. I would love to know more about the psychology behind her thinking and actions Wow she abandoned her children for 22 days to be with a boyfriend? Putting them through stress thinking their mom wasn’t coming back!. It’s amazing the extent she went. Was it for attention? She is certifiable. Was she’s just trying to cover her tracks? What does this say about her as a person. It’s amazing her husband believed her and took her back and they have been together since. He must’ve had an inkling that she was having an affair. And now it’s proven Because the boyfriend and his family spoke out and said she was with him.
I’m only 22 seconds in but I just thought of a great idea for your next thank you for my massive number of subscribers video! Bloopers reel! A Dr. Grande bloopers reel! Please please please!
You provided the best analysis I’ve seen on this case. You were neutral, provided a lot of history, used patterns of behaviors and even provided some forensic analysis in regards to the profile of the kidnappers. Great job Dr. Grande!
Ooooh, I really enjoyed this episode of Sherlock Grande!
Doctor Tod Holmes
@@yes0r787 That's a good name for one of the plants.
As you said, it says a lot that the neighbors, her own family, and the police (not releasing the suspects photos) didn't really believe her story.
She sounds very sketchy!
This seems like a real life “Gone Girl” to me
@mike christian here’s how it fits: wife disappears, questionable abduction, questionable story, questionable wounds, randomly reappears saying she was “released.” It reminded me a lot of the book for more reasons than just the marriage component. Although this couple doesn’t seem too happy either..
Basically lol 👌
Agree, in that Amy from Gone Girl had a history of lying about being an abused woman and setting up elaborate scenarios to prove it (she did it with her ex boyfriend, her husband, then Desi). Papini seems to have had a similar history of lying
Oh please, how horrible for a woman to be Kidnapped, hair chopped off, beaten, branded and then obviously kidnapped for sex trafficking because that’s what they do with sex trafficking the brand you. Why can’t people just be happy that someone had a heart and let her go? Instead of torturing the poor people that I’ve been through hell but not believing them it’s so dumb people
@@tracietracie8454 I am relieved she was released, but the details of the abduction / captivity / torture don’t add up. No matter what, I always always want women healthy and safe. The story simply reminded me of another I’d read before
Dr Grande, you were right! Please do an updated video about her arrest and the family dynamics of this situation.
Can you cover Malachi Love-Robinson, or “Dr. Love”, the teenager in Florida who impersonated a medical doctor and treated patients.
That would be soooo interesting!!!
She was just charged and arrested on 3/4/2022 for faking 2016 kidnapping
Was she almost out of benzodiazepines? That would bring her home in a hurry, lol.
Facts. Came back down after a binge and had an "oh fk" moment. Probably burned herself or somebody accidentally burned her with recreational supplies. Hence the brand. Idk sounds like shenanigans. Or some really thoughtful kidnappers.🤔
she definetly was off benzos the whole time. made up a story in 5 minutes and took 5 days to finalize before coming back home
Good one...
You know it's kinda sick to be talking about someone like this. There is literally no way you can be sure what happened, so try to consider that who you're talking about could very well be a victim, however unlikely that might seem to you. There have been other abductions where no one believes the victim and it turns out to be true, or they were hiding something but they were still abducted, sometimes abused. Just chill. Not everything needs to be said. If you're right then ok cool I guess? Congrats? If you're wrong you're being crude and cruel towards someone who really was a victim, and whose experience may very well be worsened by people like you, because what you say may affect how other people view the victim (sometimes people from the very town in which they live), and they or their family could come across it. I can't understand how an empathetic person would see that risk as worthwhile for a joke that isn't even funny.
@@benion93able Really? Facts? Where are the facts? I see only conjecture and jumping to conclusions. Y'all, please don't ever become investigators. I've looked into this case, in detail, for years and looked at pretty much everything that's publicly available about it. There is absolutely NO way you can tell whether or not this actually happened. Have you considered how horrible it'd be if it turned out to be true and you didn't believe her, basically implying she's a liar? Did you even know that a classmate of hers was also abducted on the same trail years earlier? Have you considered she could be lying and still have been abducted? The earphones, which many point to as showing she wasn't abducted, are not even conclusive evidence-- if there were 2+ kidnappers one could've just wrapped them up so there would be no "signs of struggle", or she could've wrapped them up and THEN been grabbed and simply dropped them. Anything is possible. You guys should come up with theories, but you shouldn't think you "know", or imply you know, what you don't KNOW, and is rather a mere theory.
How about a video on why lie detector test are junk? Why are they still used if they are so unreliable? 🤔
As a pressure mechanism. Like how we lord Santa's presents over kids to make them behave.
It just gives them time to ask more questions, while making you nervous.
They give law enforcement a sense of direction especially if they have no other evidence / leads. But lie detector tests aren’t admissible in court.
I’m confused about this subject as well. On a lot of murder investigations they seem to set a high importance on them, but then they are often referred to as useless as well. Which is it???
@@suej3959 So Chris Watts failed the lie-detector and was lured to think that they were on to him!!! He could have denied, denied, denied and never have been proven guilty!!! Theywould NEVER have found the children, Shannan maybe yes but then he could have denied again. Why do people so quicklygive up, they are going in for LIFE so I would never admit to my crime, not before hell freezes.
I can’t make up my mind on this one. It seems pretty sketch. But branding herself and losing weight seems drastic to cover it up. 🤷🏻♀️ I go back and forth.
Research shows mice give up food, sleep, and sex, namely all vegetative functions, to replace them with pulling a lever thousands of time a day delivering intravenous cocaine. I stop right there.
What’s so sketch about it? Can’t people Just be happy that someone had a heart and actually let her go! They always brand you when they kidnap you for sex trafficking and that’s exactly what she was headed for except for somebody, I’m assuming one of the guys girlfriends felt bad for her and let her go. It’s really not rocket science. And it’s definitely not a hoax. It’s just a bunch of followers saying it’s a hoax because other people said it was a hoax. And the reasons for saying it’s a hoax are absolutely ridiculous like her phone wasn’t laying in the right way blah blah blah

love how he says police. “Plice”
I believe it’s a hoax... but what is her motive?
Attention from husband? Parents? Community? Lover?
Speed will drop weight off a person in no time flat. Not to mention that it wipes out brain cells.
Her husband... he sure looks pretty calm?
Maybe substance use and infidelity 🤷?
Her husband broke down sobbing when interviewed on the local news. Seemed sincere to me. I felt bad for him.
@suspicionofdeceit I can see you believe that by your screen name😉 everybody has temptation, it’s wether you choose it or not. Married 23 years, was still interested in handsome/successful men but made a commitment to monogamy. Now, he is the only man I see in this world.
A woman from Florida met a man and set up a fake kidnapping with him to get ransom money but she then blamed the lover and said he actually kidnapped her! He knew she was shady and taped their conversations and trysts In the hotel room! They truly thought he kidnapped her! If he didn’t have the tapes he would have been fucked! Anyway the woman Hardly even got into trouble in the end ( she was wealthy for figure) but it’s a crazy case!
I remember reading this on Reddit a while back, which means it may not be true, and sources should be located, but I think they paid off their house after the gofundme. The husband really does believe her, I think.
Dr. Grande can you make an update now that she has been arrested for lying about being kidnapped.
Plus: When my husband was a truck driver, the drivers had to take a class in sex trafficking, if they were stopped at a truck stop, and they saw women that looked downtrodden, they were told to quietly ask the woman if she was ok. If they said no, or gave them a look of distress, the drivers had a special number to call to report it. Police would show up and take over the situation. These women they are being used for sex trafficking are so beaten down and SCARED, they do what their captors tell them. They have no money, no family, no phone, no self-worth, they just go along with the program. We are all comfy and cozy, and we do not realize the things that are going on in the dark side of mankind.
mhm
When I take my earbuds out to have a conversation I generally automatically start wrapping the earbud chord around the phone.
If the women asked her for directions and they got into a conversation I could see doing that and if they asked for physical help of some type I could see her setting her phone down. How does she say they abducted her?
Was the weight loss documented at the hospital?
Definitely going to watch more videos about this case.
I used to do the same thing but around my fingers in order to tuck them in my pocket.
@@gurutruecrimeguru1405 The cops just announced today that she was arrested and will be charged for fraud for making up the kidnapping. The admitted that it was fake and a cover-up for an affair.
@Aas looks like this kendall rae doesnt know how to read people as well as dr grande
@@gurutruecrimeguru1405 what say you now?
@@gurutruecrimeguru1405 🤪🤪🤪 geeze I guess everyone saying she was lying were right
I’m speculating (but not diagnosing), she was abducted by alien lizard people.
So have the police not located the vehicle because after they got Sherri in the vehicle with the bag over her head, the vehicle went straight up with the wheels tucking under it? Was the basement she thought she was in really the belly of the ship? Were the alien lizard people gifted with shape shifting when in human form so they could change from female to male? It would explain everything. Enquiring minds-these such things are reported in the Enquirer-want to know.
Lesson: if you are a sociopath who looks like Mani Pedi Barbie you can nearly get away with anything.
So, this analysis actually aged quite well. ;)
Your analysis proves to be a 100 % 👍. At first I thought that you are analyzing the case because of her arrest but then saw the date of uploading.
I believe it was a kidnaping. She kidnaped herself.
I found his discussion interesting. He covered the important issues. I wonder if her husband was given a lot of information about the man she was communicating with and planned to meet in California. Maybe he followed up. To me, that's a big factor. With her history, I would be very suspicious of that fact. It was covered very well by Dr Grande.
If the principle of Occam’s Razor is applied to this case the answer seems clear to me.
I was thinking the exact same thing! You said it well!
Catherine Herrick Excellent point. When I used to attempt to have discussions with people who believed in a particular conspiracy theory-I gave up making finally accepting it didn’t matter how logical and simple my points were HE/SHE wanted to believe in that particular conspiracy and I was wasting my time so stopped engaging no matter how tempted I was-anyway, when I naively still had hope at helping these misguided persons, I always introduced Occam’s Razor. It’s off topic to go into those discussions here but mainly at that time it was the conspiracies surrounding the 9/11 tragedy and the Twin Towers collapsing practically straight down when a commercial airliner was purposely crashed into each tower.
Their theories surrounding this were so ridiculously complicated, truly impossible, plus the various reasons believed as to why this was done and how many people that would have had to have been involved to bring down the towers in their ‘conspiracy’ but unbelievably not one of the hundreds that would have been needed to be involved to accomplish their ‘theory’ has leaked so much as a word about the conspiracy, immediately had me introducing Occam’s Razor...SMH...to no avail. Again this is perfect for this story, as the simplest explanation is usually the right one. A good example, President Trump lost the election to President Biden because more American citizens voted for Joe Biden. Thanks for your comment.
@@deemariedubois4916 except, we know for a fact, that the constitution states only legislature can determine election practices and judicial bodies determined it. This was the entire basis for the Texas lawsuit the Supreme Court chose not to hear, not based on merit, but based on standing/jurisdiction.
Razor doesn’t apply here. We have verifiable facts you simply ignore or deny and you call those who state the facts conspiracy theorists, inappropriately.
Pennsylvania judicial branch implemented voting procedures. 14th amendment of constitution states only the legislature can. SCOTUS exists to resolve issues like this and refused to do its appointed duty.
Under the conditions pa judicial branch set forth, Biden won. Under the conditions of the constitution, he did not. That is the crux
Hoax🥸
These two were ahead of their time with their face masks.
I see a history of questionable behavior
Yeah... that’s what does it for me.
I have a past that many would see as "questionable". I know firsthand that it's possible to change. Her past should definitely be considered, just not as the only factor in determining what's happening in the present.
Yeah I didn't know about the prior issues with her family.
I think the whole think the whole thing smells fishy. BUT, the extreme weight loss, all her injuries seem to be extreme to fall under the heading of self inflected. I don't think hubby's involved. His reactions seem to be genuine. But there's all her history of troubled behavior. Weird case.
Drug fueled sex romp... Probably bondage
Spot on analysis.
If the words don't add up, it's usually because the truth wasn't included in the equation.
Haha! I like your analysis...
Look up the Denise Huskins kidnapping case. It’s also very similar to this and yes she was really kidnapped.
All over the news today (March 4, 2022) that she lied and has been arrested and charged with lying to federal law enforcement.
The only thing that gets me is the weight loss. That’s weird. I still don’t believe her though
If she was using opiates (fentanyl, heroin, etc.) she would not have had much of an appetite. However, I don't know if she was tested for drugs at the hospital.....
The part that got me was her beautiful hair was chopped off. If she was kidnapped by these women, maybe they had a grudge against her involving drugs.
the weight loss was a claim by her husband and never confirmed anywhere else by anyone else.... same with "the broken nose" and the severity of the bruises. It was all likely exaggerated like everything else claimed in this story. The Sheriff said her injuries were minor - like a sprained ankle. The lady that spotted her on the highway and called 911 clearly stated that she spotted Sherri's "long, blonde hair" - so how badly could it have been "all chopped off" as Keith claimed.
@@evelynwaugh4053 I went in for a kidney stone and they tested me for drugs without my permission or knowledge. I think HIPAA would protect her privacy, don't know if the police would have access.
@@justanotherguy469 I suspect that since she was involved in an alleged crime, the DA might be able to subpoena her medical records. So at some point, her drug results might be discovered. Of course, she could always state that they gave her drugs to keep her quiet and control her. I don't know what to make of this case. There have been quite a few cases where people disappear, then reappear, and GoFundMe is usually involved. However, due to the amount spent to investigate this, I doubt it's a dead case.
I have always found this story to be a bit suspicious, and I definitely like your theory as it certainly sounds more plausible than what Papini claimed happened. You always have great theories and great advice, Dr. Grande.
She was "released" just in time for Thanksgiving dinner...🙄😂
That was the most ridiculous part of the hoax.
Unlikely the kidnappers would let her go. Most likely outcome there imo is sold into slavery anyway or murdered. The kidnappers gain nothing by letting her go and only stand to lose. If they both have empathy sufficient to allow them to be swayed by her pleas, why hold her for so long? Why not release her immediately?
Agreed.
Yes, Dr. Grande's theory at the end of the video sounds quite probably to me, indeed. On the other hand - it isn't a rare case that what actually later is found out to be the truth, impressed as the most unlikely thing at first. Our world often turns out to be a quite bizarre one. I can relate to everyone who is careful in his/her judgement here.
Truth is stranger than fiction
The only thing that wouldn't add up in his version is the headphones phone and coat that were found immediately that kick started the investigation. So his theory is shot in regards to deciding later on she was going to pretend a kidnapping after having a bender of sex/affair
I never could figure this one out. I just don’t know why you would break your nose, cut your hair, brand yourself, and lose a ton of weight? I’m just not sure what way to go.
Dr. Grande, I enjoy your videos they have taught me much about how unpredictable and conniving people can be who then turn and act normal. It is shocking but also enlightening as to help me not find myself in a situation which may be perilous and look for warning signs in people's behavior. Thank you.
Thank you for making this video. I’ve never heard of this Case before.....your videos are really interesting, would be great to see you on tv. (In the UK)❤️
It's very entertaining to watch Dr. Grande's videos but let's acknowledge how much work and research goes into making each of these videos.
Dang you nailed it!!!! Respect!
You forgot to add that she is prejudice. At least against mexicans.
Love the little cactus you have in the background! It's an adorable cactus cutie!
😉😉😉
"Like Wile E Coyote sees a hot dog superimposed on Road Runner"
JENNNYYYY NICHOLSONNN WTF ARE YOU DOING HEREEEE ah I actually gasped irl
Jenny spotted on the true crime side of youtube
She’s nuts. 🤷🏻♀️
I think that's an accurate assessment
Bipolar
Dr Grande, authorities made an announcement today.
Sherri Papini has been charged. LE stated she was at an old BF’s house and her injuries were self inflicted.
I feel terrible for Keith Papini. I don’t think he had any doubt in his wife.
Dr grande, i cant help but think there's something fishy here...
Thank you, Dr. Grande, for sharing your insight in this curious situation, though certainly not the first of it's kind. On Wikipedia, a Fake Kidnapping is defined as a kidnapping that has been staged by the victim. Wikipedia also gives a list of Notable incidents. Joanna Grenside, an aerobics teacher from England, staged her disappearance a few days before Christmas in 1992. She suffered from the eating disorder Bulimia, and wanted to avoid the overindulgence of food that went on at Christmas parties. Another example is Karol Sanchez a 16 year old girl who, in December 2019 had two young adult men pretend to abduct her in front of her mother. Her motive was apparently she did not want to move to Honduras with her mom. In the Papini case, I agree that the police are reluctant to dismiss her story as fake, on the chance that it is true. It's better to err on the side of caution. Take the story of Marie Adler, who was 18 when she was tied up, blind folded and raped by a masked knifeman who broke into her bedroom as she slept. The police branded her a liar and charged her for "making a false report". Years and many more rapes later, police arrest a suspect in an other rape and discover he took photos of each of his victims, including Marie. Oops...
It's not impossible that she was kidnapped but it's improbable
You have no idea what the world is really about.
I'm curious as to the kidnappers' agenda or "endgame." What was the point? Not money. Not theft of property. Not death involving life insurance. Not sexual assault. Why bother with the kidnapping? What did they get out of it? Torture appeared to be minimal if she was released from hospital within five hours. Hell you sit in an ER waiting room longer than that. That's the oddest thing to me.
@@kkheflin3 she made the entire thing up for an insidious level of attention
@@yousnoozeyouloze No one has
@@feedthefatrabbit1073 I agree. Too sketchy.
Reminds me of the case from Madison, WI of the girl who arranged her "kidnapping," for attention from s boyfriend. She turned out diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. Maybe the same here.
Dr Grande We Need Beaker the Plant back! We need the Beaker!
Maybe he is putting it in a pretty pot. 🌵
@@carolv8450 i can only hope!
REQUEST: Dr. Grande, would you please take a look at the BRAYLEN NOBLE case in Toledo, Ohio? This sad, unsolved case involves a 3 year old non-verbal child who went missing from his mother's apartment in September 2020. The community got very involved in searching for Braylen, with local news giving daily updates.
A week after the family reported him missing, the child was found deceased floating face-down in the pool at the apartment complex. Police confirmed that they had searched the pool immediately and found nothing. So far there are no updates, no cause or manner of death, and no indication of what's going on. Thank you!
What?!
...a $50K go fund me?!
Well done on a difficult and baffling scenario, Dr. Grande.
I like your theory. Seems she went on a bender with a lover then realized she was caught if she didn't come up with something -quick!
Wile E Coyote! heheh that was funny.
PS please profile Trezell and Jacqueline West
Hearing that she hurt herself and tried to blame it on her mom clears up the biggest issue for me, the brand and bruises. Knowing that she’s capable of harming herself and had done so before makes me 99% certain that it was a hoax when before I just couldn’t imagine someone who looks like that purposefully marking her own skin. That’s one messed up woman when you add all the other sketchy things he mentioned.
It's really sad her children will be exposed to this horrific lie of hers for the rest of their lives because it's all over the internet.
Alot of the events don't add up. Now she is arrested for faking the kidnapping
