Keith is determined to find his wife.
"If she is listening I want to say, 'We are trying, we are trying the best we can and I am sorry I'm not there',." Keith said while crying. "I'm coming honey. I am trying, I'm doing everything I can and I love you."
The Papini children do not know their mother is missing and not having his wife by his side is difficult.
"It's the worst thing in the world," Keith paused and continued to say,"I never, it's never, it's the worst thing ever,"
Keith noted he just wants his wife back.
He is also extremely grateful for the support the community is offering to help him find his wife.
Anthony Bertain, a lieutenant with the Shasta County Sheriff's Office, noted Keith is cooperating with them.
Today the sheriff’s office was vetting through possible leads.
Bertain noted they along with officers from the Redding Police Department were making contact with known sex offenders, parolees and people on probation.
"So far no leads have come from those particular individuals," Bertain noted.
He added they temporarily suspended the ground search in the area where the phone was found.
"We have not ruled out going back out there, but right now it's temporarily suspended until we get a better direction on which way we are going to go on this investigation," Bertain explained.
If anyone has information on Sherri Papini’s whereabouts or tips, they can call dispatch 24 hours a day at 530-245-6540, or the Major Crimes Unit at 530-245-6135. Tips can also be submitted to
