HOAX: THE KIDNAPPING OF SHERRI PAPINI (LIFETIME)
BROADCAST HISTORY:
1/28/23
STATUS:
telefilm/mini-series in the can
DESCRIPTION:
(from Lifetime's press release, November 2022) Jaime King stars as Sherri Papini in the film about the nation-wide, shocking story of a young mother of two, who disappears while jogging near her home, leading to national headlines as concerned citizens searched for her whereabouts. When she reappeared three weeks later on Thanksgiving Day, Sherri claimed she was abducted by two Hispanic women who chained and repeatedly abused her. While Sherri's return was celebrated, the state never stopped searching for her kidnappers. Four years later, Sherri's world came crashing down as evidence revealed her kidnapping was all a hoax perpetrated by Sherri herself to spend time with her ex-boyfriend. Sherri was arrested and ultimately sentenced to 18 months in prison for lying to federal agents, creating hysteria in the community and wasting police time and funding with her nearly successful, elaborate scheme. Matt Hamilton (Girl in Room 13) stars as Sherri's devoted husband, Keith.
