I refuse to watch a single interview she gives.

I refuse to read a single word she's written.

Zero clicks. Zero views. Zero likes. Zero. Dollars.

SP is a toxic Cluster B, and nobody should be providing her a platform to spew her lies.

Anyone who does is going to the top of my, "Hide," "Block" and/or "Unsubscribe" list.

JMO.
That's literally how I felt!!! Which is why I feel so duped by watching. Dateline is nearly on my ban list, for setting me up!! 😂

I could never ban Dateline - or put any of the posters here on ignore. I really value the input of other people’s reactions and thoughts - particularly yours. I think your reaction after getting reeled in, is very common. But I do wonder about anyone who actually believes her.

Yeah Dateline has proved itself a friend for many years, so I forgive them. I just can't believe they even promoted something that was so obviously not true. And like you said, it dangerous, because people will grab hold and believe it. It seems to be the new trend.

And right back at ya!! Always an amazing poster!!! ❤️

*Trial [Long Cause] Hearing (Divorce) (@ 8:30am PT) – CA – Sherri Louise Papini (39/now 45) vs. Keith Papini (38/now 42) Divorce case filed April, 2022. Shasta County
Keith has already won a series of legal battles in the divorce – including having his ex-wife declared an ‘unfit parent’ & gaining sole legal & physical custody of T & V. Papini is allowed only supervised visits with the children which take place at a court building in Redding & voice & video calls at Keith’s discretion.
On March 3, 2022, Sherri Papini was arrested by the FBI, accused of lying to federal agents & faking her kidnapping to spend time with her ex-boyfriend, away from her husband & family. Six weeks after her arrest, Papini signed a plea deal admitting that she had orchestrated the hoax. In September, 2022, she was sentenced to 18 months in prison & fined $300,000. Papini was released from prison in August, 2023 & placed in a halfway house. In April, 2022, a few days after Sherri pleaded guilty to fraud charges, Keith filed for divorce from his wife & for sole custody of their children.
Trial set to begin on 8/12/25 (thru 8/14/25).
Judge Kathryn J. Barton presiding. Keith’s defense attorney Conard Manuel of Manuel & Tescher retained. Sherri’s defense attorneys Kinney & Kinney.

Next trial: long cause hearing on 8/12/25 thru 8/14/25 all @ 8:30am.
6/4/25 Update: The day after the docuseries premiered (May 26, 2025), Keith & Sherri Papini’s lawyers met about the couple’s contentious child custody proceedings. It’s been decided that the matter should go to trial from Aug. 12-14, a family court battle that will no doubt be followed by the national media. The next day on May 28, Papini’s lawyers were back in court to file a restraining order against a Northern California woman. The woman has publicly identified herself on Go Fund Me and Reddit as the ex-partner of Papini’s current boyfriend. She alleges that her partner of 16 years abandoned her & their daughter to be with Papini. On Tuesday, the Redding Record Searchlight reported that Papini is being evicted from a Shingletown home by a different ex-boyfriend. According to the outlet, Papini & the man initially agreed she would buy the home from him, but the deal fell apart when they ended the relationship. He reportedly served her an eviction notice, but she is refusing to leave the property. Neither this man nor the one allegedly involved in the restraining order is the same man who Papini claims kidnapped her.
Kathleen Papini vs Sherri Papini. Unlimited Breach of contract/warranty for $50K – Trial was set to begin on 8/5/25 was vacated on 1/10/25.

REDDING, Calif. — The child custody trial between Sherri Papini and her ex-husband, Keith Papini, started Tuesday in Redding, marking the latest chapter in a saga that began nearly nine years ago after Papini gained national attention for faking her own kidnapping.

[..]

Sherri Papini maintains her kidnapping was real, claiming the fear of losing her children in the custody battle led her to assert that she faked her own kidnapping, rather than admitting she was in communication with Reyes before she went missing.

[...]

The custody trial began at 8:30 a.m. at Shasta County Superior Court, and is scheduled to continue through Thursday.

I would :D at her idiocy but there is a child custody matter in the balance and so there is nothing at all funny about her continued attempts to rewrite history.

After almost nine years, SP currently seeking reunification with one of her children and increased visitation rights with another. This is so disgusting--especially knowing she's telling more lies to do so!

I recall two years ago when she couldn't bother to show up for the divorce hearing, and even before this (prior to incarceration), when she made no effort to see her very young children at the time.

The doubling down on a lie that is known to be a lie has to be a mental illness. imo

A whole cluster of personailty disorders. None of them likable in her presentation of them.

Since she's doubling down on her proven lie, I hope the judge doubles down on NO.

I am leaning more towards personality disorder and a serious one ;)

I wish that James Reyes would sue her for defamation on behalf of himself and all Hispanic women.

IMO, had this case been prosecuted accordingly (as a hate crime), SP would still be in prison!
 
  • #119
I think the saving grace will be that she's still a liar with pants on full fire! If she walked in there humble and apologetic, I would be scared the judge would be more lenient. But to bring back up a lie that you already said was a lie and blame someone new who actually thought he was helping you.... Whew. I cannot say how glad I am that this beast is not in my universe. She would absolutely exhausted anyone.

I'm SO glad I saw her magazine cover and promptly forgot about trying to figure out what lie she was selling now, lol
