Sherri Papini Part 2: The Unraveling

In Part 1, Sherri Papini claimed she was abducted and tortured by two Hispanic women. The nation believed her. But in Part 2, the truth unravels. Investigators discovered male DNA on Sherri's clothing—and it matched her ex-boyfriend, James Reyes. He revealed the shocking truth: Sherri had been staying with him the entire time. She asked him to brand her, cut her hair, and help stage the abduction. Sherri faked the whole thing, wasting hundreds of thousands in resources and sparking nationwide panic. This is how the hoax was exposed and the consequences she faced.
