He also said he didn’t believe the initial news that she was kidnapped. <br /><br />“I was like, there’s no way. She’s fine. I promise you she’s fine. There’s just no chance that she got kidnapped,” he said. <br /><br />Davari also clarified to Inside Edition that he wasn’t the ex-boyfriend who helped Papini commit the kidnapping hoax. <br /><br />To pull off the crime, one of Papini’s exes, a man named James Reyes, helped her escape her home in Redding to hide in Costa Mesa – 600 miles south of her home – for three weeks. <br /><br />When she reappeared, she told police that two Hispanic women kidnapped her at gunpoint and tortured her while in captivity. <br /><br />But her lies fell apart after investigators found DNA on a piece of clothing that would lead back to Reyes, who dropped her off in Woodland when she decided to reappear. <br /><br />In March 2022, Papini was arrested and charged with making false statements to federal agents and mail fraud. A month later, she formally pleaded guilty, admitting her kidnapping claims were a hoax. <br /><br />sherri papini <br />sherri papini documentary <br />sherri papini interrogation <br />sherri papini boze <br />sherri papini now <br />sherri papini kendall rae <br />sherri papini dreading <br />sherri papini interview <br />sherri papini trial <br />sherri papini story <br />sherri papini ewu <br />sherri papini behavior panel <br />sherri papini rotten mango <br />sherri papini sentencing <br />
