A 26-year-old nursing student in Alabama who claimed she was abducted after spotting a toddler along the interstate admitted on Monday she made up the entire story.
Carlee Russell claimed that she was kidnapped on July 13 after she stopped to check on a toddler at 9:30pm. She turned up at her parents' house 49 hours later and told police she had been abducted, spinning an elaborate story of fighting for freedom.
Yet on Monday, Hoover police chief Nick Derzis read a statement from Russell's lawyer in which she admitted she had invented the story.
'There was no kidnapping on Thursday, July 13,' he said.
'Carlee again asks for your forgiveness and prayers.'
Derzis said police are continuing to work on the case and prosecutors are still deciding if criminal charges should be filed.
There was no indication of any motive for her staging her disappearance, or any information on where she was for 49 hours. She said in the statement she was alone.

If you were in a hospital I don’t think you’d want this kind as a nurse.
Throw the Book at her. There have to be clear and unpleasant consequences for this kind of self indulgent, goofy behavior, or we will get more of it, much, much more.
Being publicly shamed is a start, but nowhere near enough.
Just another attention seeker wanting to be in the news. ....they’er always looking for a reason to be noticed.
Let's see whyere her boyfriend was.
the old prayer bit...since her stupid scam plan didn’t work...or is this just the continuation of her scam. like joe biden...her parents are soooo proud.
Unexpected! *drink*
The police chief is wearing a mauve suit.
I didn’t see anywhere she claimed it was racial.
No aspect of that picture surprises me.
She’s crazy.
The hate crime has not been mentioned. The White man with orange hair and a bald spot. I know it will never be brought up.
She tried to get attention and make some money.
This privileged woman must be made to give restitution for the money she cost the town.
Betting some major university gives her a job as professor of Whiteness Studies.
She learned from the commie media that it pays to be a black victim..so she wanted her Jussie Smollett moment in the sun, that whole “I found a white toddler on the highway” just smelled of total BS, she said white because she thought it would get more media attention
$100,000 fine. 1,000 hours of community service. Her probation will end when she completes her community service. Her wages will be garnished (for a long time because she's not going to be a nurse now).
Like the gal that claimed she won the lottery....it seems to be normal in their society to tell stories....”I didn’t do noth’en wrong” comes to mind.
Did the kidnappers wear MAGA hats?
I’d hide any valuables if she were my nurse. Bet we’ll find out stuff went missing. A leopard doesn’t change its spots.
Welcome to Smolletville.
