Police believe abductors left California mom Sherri Papini for dead
Sherri Papini went missing on Nov. 2 and was discovered 150 miles from her Redding home.
(Facebook)The sheriff probing the alleged kidnapping of Sherri Papini said he thinks the 34-year-old has been telling the truth about her experience.
“We currently have no reason to disbelieve Sherri Papini's story,” Shasta County Sheriff Tom Bosenko said. “She was assaulted and had injuries which she was treated for.”
Papini was discovered Thanksgiving morning chained to an object and badly beaten alongside a California highway, about 150 miles away from her Redding home. Papini was released by her captors early that morning, Bosenko said on Sunday.
Papini called 'very emotional' after 3-week-long disappearance
Officials are checking out Papini’s past and know about her previous marriage and divorce. They are looking into her online activity before she went missing and have obtained 20 warrants for data. Investigators are also reviewing surveillance cameras and cell towers in areas around Yolo County and the city of Redding.
The young mother disappeared while jogging along the Oregon Trail and Sunset Drive on Nov. 2 before her husband Keith Papini, who immediately suspected foul play, reported her missing. The couple have since been reunited and “are very happy to be together,” Koester said in an interview with the Sacramento Bee.
"We currently have no reason to disbelieve Sherri Papini's story," Shasta County Sheriff Tom Bosenko said.

Papini's disappearance made national news earlier this month, with her story being shared on social media thousands of times. An anonymous donor even offered a six-figure reward for the return of the young mother, and Secret Witness of Shasta County is still offering $10,000 for information leading to an arrest in the case.
