Sherri Papini, the Northern California woman charged last month with faking her kidnapping in 2016, acknowledged she made up the story that prompted a frantic search and international headlines.
I am deeply ashamed of myself for my behavior and so very sorry for the pain I’ve caused.
The search for Papini, 39, of Redding, set off a three-week search across California until she resurfaced on Thanksgiving Day in 2016.
She had bindings on her body and injuries including a blurred “brand” on her right shoulder and a swollen nose. She had other bruises and rashes on many parts of her body, ligature marks on her wrists and ankles, and burns on her left forearm.
Federal prosecutors alleged that she actually was staying with a former boyfriend nearly 600 miles away in Southern California’s Orange County and injured herself to back up her false statements.
