Newly Released Interrogation Video Shows Moment Sherri Papini Knew She'd Been Caught

Astonishing, and at times infuriating, video of Sherri Papini’s interrogation by California detectives was released Tuesday, showing the moment she learned her kidnapping hoax had been found out.

Papini and her husband, Keith Papini, met with Shasta County Sheriff’s Office investigators on Aug. 13, 2020. Before her story unraveled, detectives asked if she wanted her husband to leave the room.

“The DNA alone says it's him, and when we talked to him, confronted him with the DNA, he told us what happened,” the detective says. “He 100% told us what happened. He gave us details that nobody else would know.”

At this point, Sherri put her head in her hands, barely lifting her gaze for the remainder of the interview. She alternates between repeating, “No, no” and saying, “I don’t know,” in a wailing tone as detectives press her to tell the truth.

"You're not making sense right now,” Keith Papini replies. “To the point where I'm getting scared."

"They're asking you. They're not asking me," Keith Papini says as Sherri sits silently beside him. When Sherri didn’t respond, the two detectives got up and left, giving the couple a few minutes to decide with the camera still rolling. In hushed tones, Sherri can be heard urgently telling her husband that she did not want police to find her kidnappers; Papini claimed that two “Hispanic” women kidnapped her on a jog near her Redding home in November 2016.

"I don't want them to find her. I don't want to press charges,” she says repeatedly. When asked by her visibly frustrated husband to explain why, Papini says, “Because she saved my life.”

When detectives returned to the room, they gave Sherri one last chance to have her husband leave. He stayed, and Sherri began repeating her assertion that she didn’t want

It's not in this article, but she told the man who hid her out the husband was abusing her. I guess the police didn't believe that?

I wonder if he pays her alimony or child support. It says the husband filed for sole custody, but not the result.

Underscores the irrefutable fact that a very high percentage of the white people remaining in California are mentally ill.

By definition don’t you have to be crazy to be white and still live there?

At least she’s sentenced to 18 months in prison for this crap. Hope she serves the entire time.

Painful to watch her denial,confusion, and blocking. My guess: she needs a psych eval big time. Many different psych. conditions could cause her behaviours. Jail time may give her time to get help. For practical purposes : no-go zone for any interaction..sad indeed.

I’m glad that they sentenced her to jail and more than the prosecutors wanted. I am sorry to feel that way, but I do.

A little bit of stupid, and a whole lot of borderline personality and garden variety narcissism. Look at me!

That’s my amateurish psych evaluation of this woman.
