Bosenko confirmed reports that negative comments about Hispanics were posted online under Papini's maiden name. Bosenko did not explain where these comments were posted or what exactly was said.
"This is a definitely a unique occurrence," Bosenko said. "Our investigators are still actively working the case as they have been since Nov. 2."
Based on Papini's description of her apparent captors, Bosenko said authorities are searching for two Hispanic female adults driving an SUV.
"And that's all that we have regarding the description," he said. "We hope to have a little more later today."
A San Diego private detective tells FOX 5 that shortly after he offered his service, Papinis family contacted him to help on the case.
We were contacted by Sherris father-in-law, said private investigator Bill Garcia.
After conducting several searches and investigating leads of his own, Garcia believes Papini was a victim of sex trafficking.
Theres a lot of young girls, even young men, that have been taken from that area, said Garcia. I know in working in the area for some years now that theres a high incidence Mexican cartel groups in the area.
"I saw a woman with long blond hair by the side of the road kind of frantically waving what looked like a shirt," the driver, Alison Sutton, told ABC News.
Her signature long, blonde hair had been chopped off.

He added that when he reunited with Papini, she weighed only 87 lbs. and her long, blonde hair had been chopped off. He told GMA that Sherri had been thrown from a vehicle with a chain around her waist – which was also attached to her wrists – and a bag over her head.

Keith Papini said in a statement to Good Morning America that he is grateful to the thousands of people who have offered support to his family and acknowledged those who are questioning whether his wife was really kidnapped.
"I understand people want the story, pictures, proof that this was not some sort of hoax, plan to gain money, or some fabricated race war," Keith Papini told Good Morning America."I do not see a purpose in addressing each preposterous lie."
ABC News(REDDING, Calif.) -- The Shasta County Sheriff's Office has confirmed new information about Sherri Papini's condition following her alleged kidnapping.
Keith Papini told ABC News in an exclusive statement that his wife's face was "covered in bruises ranging from yellow to black because of repeated beatings." He added that the bridge of her nose was broken and her signature blonde hair had been chopped off.
"I was familiar with those details," Sheriff Tom Bosenko said Tuesday morning on ABC's Good Morning America. "We had not released them yet to the public."
http://www.redding.com/news/local/Keith-Papini-on-GMA--403578496.htmlKeith Papini said investigators told him to brace himself when first seeing Sherri Papini after her alleged abduction.
When he saw her, Keith Papini said in the statement, "her face covered in bruises ranging from yellow to black because of repeated beatings, the bridge of her nose broken," according to the statement provided to Good Morning America.
"Her now emaciated body of 87 pounds was covered in multi-colored bruises, severe burns, red rashes, and chain markings. Her signature long, blonde hair had been chopped off," Keith Papini wrote. "She has been branded and I could feel the rise of her scabs under my fingers. She was thrown from a vehicle with a chain around her waist, attached to her wrists and a bag over her head. The same bag she used to flag someone down once she was able to free one of her hands. "
http://www.newser.com/story/234721/husband-sherri-papini-experienced-true-hell.htmlKeith Papini says his wife suffered "both intense physical agony and severe mental torture" while held captive for 22 days, and anyone spreading "disgusting" rumors "should be ashamed of their malicious, subhuman behavior." In a statement to ABC News, the husband of Sherri Papini—who flagged down a motorist in Yolo County, Calif., on Thanksgiving after disappearing Nov. 2—says he felt "horror and elation" when he first saw his wife at a hospital. "Nothing could have prepared me for what I was about to see … nor the details of the true hell I was about to hear," he says
