July 1 (UPI) -- Sherri Papini, who was convicted of faking her own 2016 abduction, will share her version of events in a new Investigation Discovery docuseries.
Papini originally claimed that she'd been kidnapped while on a jog. She said her captors spoke Spanish, branded her, and forced her to use a litter box.
She received an 18-month prison sentence in 2022.
"Papini planned and executed a sophisticated kidnapping hoax, and then continued to perpetuate her false statements for years after her return without regard for the harm she caused others," officials said at the time. "As a result, state and federal investigators devoted limited resources to Papini's case for nearly four years before they independently learned the truth: that she was not kidnapped or tortured."
Her story has inspired the 2023 Lifetime movie, Sherri Papini: I Kidnapped Myself and a Hulu docuseries, Perfect Wife: The Mysterious Disappearance of Sherri Papini.
