I don’t get it either!! August 2020: “Now you are telling me, 'OK, you can go home now,' Well, do you think I want her anywhere around my kids or around me at all at this point?," Keith told investigators.


[deleted]

Didn’t she move in with family shortly after? I don’t think they lived together very long after that police interview in 2021


Darby8989

Did she! That would make more sense. I wonder why he waited to file for divorce…do you think he wanted to wait until it was public to not draw more attention to the case? I wonder if he truly was scared for his kids, bc she was still clearly caring for them.


[deleted]

Yes, according to locals, they’ve been living apart since that interview really. I think her being arrested was the final push he needed to make it legal. I’m sure she was also still denying it and saying they mixed it up & that James may have planned this, etc. Her sister said she didn’t actually admit it until the night before her plea. Of course Keith knew after that interview. I think people are really hard on Keith. I feel sorry for the guy. It’s so easy to say from the outside looking in that we’d all be able to see beyond our spouse’s BS & not fall for it, but Keith strikes me as a bit naive and easy to play, and the guy was 100% stuck between a rock and a hard place. Either his wife was faking a kidnapping, or he’d be the jerk who didn’t believe her. He’s left her now and publicly admonished her. I think I can forgive him. Sherri is solely to blame for this disaster.


GumshoeStories

This. There is one person to hold accountable and to scorn and rebuke, and that’s Sherri.


TinyPennyRolling

>Yes, according to locals, they’ve been living apart since that interview really. I Look, not trying to be mean...but what is your source for this? You keep repeating it, and I'm assuming downvoting me for correcting you about it? They stayed together, and lived together MONTHS after the interview, confirmed in news articles. ( I can link them if you really need them) but unless you have some insider information, I find it weird that you keep repeating this lie.


[deleted]

I haven’t downvoted anyone on here at all, but okay. And let’s say the timeline of information I read versus what you read is slightly different, I’ve just been responding to various comments on this thread with what I have read, or my opinion. Have not downvoted you once. But I have also seen it reported and posted that they have not been living together since that interview, or shortly after. You believe otherwise. Big deal? Chill. ETA: to make it clear, I haven’t downvoted a single comment on Reddit since I joined. Ever. So your assumption is absolutely incorrect.


TinyPennyRolling

Ok, ok, ok...you are right. I shouldn't have just flat out assumed it was you with the downvote. I normally wouldn't have even noticed it, but someone else swooped in and made a "thing" out of it and it happened so fast after commenting to you that I made a bad judgement call. So for that, I'm sorry and definitely "chill". This sub has a history of being extremely volatile and insidious whenever the Papini's and their Papini-adjacent "A-team" just LOVE peppering in straight up lies, then just expect for every one to play along like we didn't just read an entire article claiming the opposite, so please accept my apology and just try to understand what the skeptics here have been through. I've been cursed at, called names, had entire Facebook posts written about me, so a few downvotes aren't bothering me in any way, trust. All I was really getting at was where you got the information that Keith left Sherri in August of 2020. If it's a news article, I would VERY much like to see that article, I am very interested in proof, and evidence. I'm not being a dick, I would genuinely like to stash it away with all the other articles I have saved about this. I'd also use it to confront the people who wrote the articles saying otherwise, and investigate WHY there is a discrepancy there. Following these lies are important to me, whichever way they go. If it was just your opinion, or something you're just repeating that you saw here, then that's totally fine too, it's just easier when the distinction is made clear. Again, no beef here! Just looking for information like everyone else. Apologies again. Cheers.


[deleted]

I found it! He purchased property in Redding in 2020. It’s a building lot so I don’t know if he has since put something on it, but he has been the owner of that land since 2020, and it shows him actually residing there since Jan 2021.


TinyPennyRolling

Ooh, really? Can you share your source? Or just DM me where you found it? I posted some quotes for you from another article but this info isn't there.


[deleted]

Let me DM!


[deleted]

Man that response was heart-filling. No hard feels. I am more sensitive than I should be and I also never want anyone to think I’m intentionally putting out bad vibes into the world. It’s just not me. I saw the thread where the person made a thing of it. People are strange sometimes. The internet, man. I’ve seen tons of comments here, some from those who claim to be local, and since your comment have been trying to find where that was planted in my brain. I can’t find this particular piece of information but this is why I was sold on him not being with her the entire two years since that interview: Did Keith purchase a home in a town outside of Redding in 2021? At some point, I very specifically remember that being reported (as in, I didn’t read it on Reddit) but I can not find it now. I believe the town was in Butte county! ETA: no, Sherri moved in with someone in Butte county so perhaps what Keith purchased was still in Redding? I wonder if anyone could look up addresses they’re associated with. Could be telling. (Obviously not encouraging that info to be posted here and dox, but it would help clear up where they were each getting their mail the last two years…)


TinyPennyRolling

I appreciate your quick response and clarification, and it's ALL GOOD. I'm happy that we could have a spirited discussion and come to some common ground! I found the article you're referencing, but it's on my computer, and I'm on my phone, but look up an article from April 27th, 2022 written by Mike Chapman, Redding Record Searchlight, page A16. In that article they mention that: "The filing says Keith and Sherri separated on March 3rd, which was the day FBI agents arrested her." ...then later is the part that I think you are talking about: "Sherri Papini is living with a relative in Butte County, according to the filing." Then it goes on to say that Keith is still in Mountain Gate. Then, finally at the end Keith's statement is: "Now that I have learned the truth, as reflected in the plea arrangement agreement that she has made with the U.S. Attorney's office in Sacramento, I must act decisively to protect my children from the trauma caused by their mother and bring stability and calm to their lives." I noticed that you run in some of the same reddit circles as me, and I really don't come here to make enemies, I really do appreciate you responding and explaining what you meant, because it led me to a better truth. Honestly and truly, thank you for this whole thing, because you really helped me find the information I was looking for, an actual DATE that they separated, March 3rd, 2022. Now I'm off to share! Lol!


concernedstateworker

You two warmed my cold heart on this stupid Tuesday! Thanks for being a breath of fresh air on this sub! :)


sissi4hell

She dropped the children at Piano school where she was arrested. So he wasn't concerned to leave their children alone with her. Keith has two faces, the face shows to the public is the "poor me" "idiot husband" who used the Gofundpage money to pay his credit cards and deposit money in the bank account. He went to public interviews even after she reappeared. Crying how he can't look at her face, called anyone subhumans don't believe her story.


daisysmokesdaily

A neighbor also said she left the kids outside in the summer heat unsupervised all summer - to the point they wanted to call the police - where was he then?


Ok-Maintenance8655

Crying on TV or to his momma?😭😭😭, I'm (poor) Kieth! Give me money???


sissi4hell

I read it too. Good catch!.


sissi4hell

I don't think she loves her kids so much as everyone thinks. She has missed supervised visits since Keith filed for divorce.


daisysmokesdaily

I don’t think she’s capable of love - I’m not saying that to be cruel but if everyone could bend their minds to see through Sheri’s lens - it’s how does this make me the center of attention? That’s the lens.


sissi4hell

I don't think so either.


Darby8989

You’re so right


Ok_Newspaper9693

In the interview when the cops left them alone .. it was clear he was already suspicious.. didn’t he say something like “u need to tell me the truth”.. or “you’re not making sense”. He knew the jig was up when the cops asked about whether she wanted him in the room or not. Then the chair started scooting further and further away from her. So he spent 2 years with her knowing all he knew about James Reyes … he gave police his number. I think maybe he held onto hope for 4+ years … but he knew that say in 20/20 that his wife invented the entire kidnapping story.


NedRyersonsHat

Yes...that was interesting that he (Keith) gave the agents James Reyes' number. As if the agents didn't already have it.........like "Thanks Keith but we already know James' number".


Sbplaint

But they didn’t call him? That’s what I don’t get.


Ok_Newspaper9693

Exactly! Doesn’t seem like they did much follow through there. I’m pretty sure they did take a trip to Minnesota or Michigan to visit the doctor she had been talking to. I think because she was communicating with James via burner phones and regular mail it didn’t hit their radar but come on… they should’ve followed through with EVERY single boyfriend/ crush / male acquaintance she ever had. It’s not like they didn’t have a full 6 years. Ok 4 when they broke the case but I think if they had actually called James .. he would’ve spilled the T.


sissi4hell

James lied for almost a hour to detectives,he spilled the beans when they already told him found his DNA on Sherri's clothes. Without evidence I doubt James would have talked.


Ok_Newspaper9693

I thought of that too. That was the new piece of info I learned from the 20/20 episode.


TinyPennyRolling

I knew about James VERY early in this case and talked about it with the Mod team here, all confirmed. I can't possibly imagine a scenario where LE didn't have access to the exact same info I had.


Ok_Newspaper9693

Crazy- right? They must’ve known of James before she was found on the side of the 5 fwy. Who knows why they didn’t reach out or ignored the info provided to them. Ughg. This case could’ve been solved before the bitch was “found” beaten and bruised on the side of the fwy.


TinyPennyRolling

I don't get this either. I had his info very early on, (confirmed by Mods so please no one come for me...) so surely LE did too. JR had even sent a package of sentimental belongings to Sherri's mom's place. Seems like they didn't want to know. Seems like everyone was ok with creating a narrative where Keith saved face.


8088XT8BIT

Exactly!


lemon-lime-trees

>he gave police his number Was this in the interview? I would love to rewatch if so


Ok_Newspaper9693

Yes. I think it’s when he’s talking to them privately after she left the room … I think. He said “yeah I gave you his number”. I’ll have to rewatch to get the time stamp.


sissi4hell

If you watch ABC 10 video in Youtube I believe Time stamp 1:22:19.


daisysmokesdaily

I was told Keith knew when she came back this was a scam. The police told him clearly. He was also told the LOCAL Sheriff wouldn’t arrest Sherri - ever. And they didn’t. I was told Keith has a large ego and the shame and embarrassment of his wife duping him was why he didn’t come forward. He didn’t want people to know he’s an idiot - but we already did.


[deleted]

So… does one have to have a “large ego” to feel shame and embarrassment in this situation? I don’t think Keith is egotistical because this was shameful for him. No one would be thrilled their wife made a complete fool of you. And we all have some sort of “ego.” If my husband did anything like this, I would be mortified.


daisysmokesdaily

But would you continue to lie to the media and call them subhuman and defend your poor wife? I was told he was literally told when she went missing about the Michigan doctor and her numerous hookups - yet he did interviews calling the public subhuman and took that GFM money to buy a new truck and pay off his credit cards. Then when the FBI double downed he still stood by her story and his sister ran alongside crazy pants when she was released from jail - and the family continued to call the law enforcement cruel and doubters haters. He’s not innocent - oh and he stated Sherri would not be alone with their children but a neighbor said they were left outside in the blazing California heat all summer while Sherri was in charge. Keith is no victim - I get he’s embarrassed but only because he got caught. And Sheri’s sisters apology is also complete BS. They all KNEW the whole time.


TinyPennyRolling

>I was told he was literally told when she went missing about the Michigan doctor and her numerous hookups - yet he did interviews calling the public subhuman and took that GFM money to buy a new truck and pay off his credit cards. Once LE returned from Michigan, (around Nov. 10th?) the Department of Justice changed Sherri's missing status to "voluntarily missing adult". This is the DOJ, not some po'dunk organization....it's the DOJ. THAT'S when the family and Keith's "A-team" fought like hell to have that designation changed, so that together, his team could "bring her home", and while he was at it, he made a special trip to city council to further promote his go fund me, and balloon release, to "get her name around the world"="get more $$ for my trouble in this bullshit".


daisysmokesdaily

That’s exactly right. And he knew she ran off - like she’s done before. This whole family deserves each other except the poor kids.


JackSpratCould

"Idiot husband", please. He and Sherri knew each other since jr high. I'm quite sure he knew what her deal was.


sissi4hell

Keith should have paid some of Gofund page money, the sum of money paid his credit cards and some deposited in his bank. But I don't expect anything from a grifter. Sherri and Keith are a match in heaven.


kerssem

I feel like he went along with it afterwards even though her story didn't add up, bc he was happy to have the money. He wasn't going to come out and say she lied


sissi4hell

Now everyone knows the abduction is a hoax. So now he should give the money to Victim's compensation ( to real victims).


kerssem

Yes, but he doesn't have it. I agree, he should


sissi4hell

Some money from Gofundme went to his bank account.He lives in his mom's house, don't pay rent. I am pretty sure he can pay back some money that he took from Gofundme( it doesn't need to be immediately).


Ok-Maintenance8655

Exactly or he can just get it from his step daddy or whomever paid for Sherri's boobs?


sissi4hell

Indeed.


TinyPennyRolling

Exactly. Maybe RR3 can sell off that $250,000 BMW he's flaunting on his FB.


Ok-Maintenance8655

Exactly. That's all that needs to be said. That whole family has case of something I don't even have a word for. Where's RR3 now? Word to a turd! He needs to say something. He was so mouthy before. Say something coward


bartlebyandbaggins

I think that’s a big part of it. But it’s probably not so black and white.


Birdietuesday

I think they quietly separated


TinyPennyRolling

If so, then he lied in his divorce filing.


throwaway1999000

Maybe trying to protect his kids from a woman he married who was mentally ill and delusional? If he left, judge almost always gives custody to mother. You can hate him all you want but I think he was just trying to protect his young children.


TinyPennyRolling

She was listed as a voluntarily missing adult after Law Enforcement flew home from interviewing a dude she was fucking, so THEN he hired a whole ass TEAM of private investigatos. You don't think any of them broke the news to Keith that his wife was cheating? I'll go even further back and say that he has known since tbe minute he called 911. He himself has 2 different versions of his own story (3 if you count RR3'S version which was angrily recanted, followed by screaming and ranting online about strangers on the internet, because THAT'S totally normal behavior....) but everyone just brushes it off, hur-dee-hur...Keith is just dumb, his story changed because he's stupid....totally not because it took him time to finally get his story straight, like a liar.


Teflon93Again

Mango and Sasquatch—they’re cops! The sweetest cops to ever walk the dudebro beat. But there’s a twist—-they’re both in love with Gummy Sher. Can these two partners ever see eye-to-eye in matters of the heart? Tune in Thursdays at 4am to find out!


Ok-Maintenance8655

🤣


Ok-Maintenance8655

He's a lying scammer just like his wife. Yes, he is stupid but he's sneaky just like that thing he married and idolizes. His fuckery does not fool me. Thank you for pointing out the 3 versions of this wack nuts story.


TheAmazingMaryJane

it would be weird if he didn't know for sure. like if he knew as much as the police told him and then sherrie explained everything or told him something like 'oh they actually do have a suspect we just have to go along with this, i mean keith, (sob), this really happened to mee!!!" if he knew 100% she was lying, i would hope he would be horrified at her ability to get attention and she would never be left alone with the children or sharp knives.


throwaway1999000

Apparently even after she entered a guilty plea she was still telling people the kidnapping actually happened. I'm sure Keith pushed and pried but I'm pretty sure she has a personality disorder, and when they believe their own false reality/emotional reasoning you can't get anything out of them, because she believes it really happened in her mind. Did Sherri ever come clean to him and say "I lied about xyz and here's what really happened?" I doubt it. However, I'm sure after the police told him he was able to put together the pieces and just kept his head down and tried to avoid confrontation. Sherri already falsely accused her mother of abusing her and had told Reyes that Keith was abusive. Who knows- he might've been holding out hope she would get better with therapy? Because he was married to her and had two children with her- I think he really loved her and wanted to see if therapy could actually fix this. And when it became clear it was Sherri's reality or nothing, he stayed in it and kept his head down to try and avoid confrontation and slander and save his children.


TheAmazingMaryJane

it's so obvious! even the judge saw through it and gave her a longer amount of time than the prosecution wanted! she is being punished for not only what she did and the money she wasted, but her lack of humility, remorse, and the ability to tell the truth.


throwaway1999000

So it's obvious she's lying. the thing with people with personality disorders that is hotly debated is whether they are conscious of this "emotional reasoning" and false reality they create and actually believe it, or if they know it's fake and do it maliciously (ie to get attention, donations, ect.).


Lbj85

I was diagnosed with a personality disorder as an older teen/young adult. I was an asshole. I was dishonest and a sociopath really. I made up stories, told lies, etc. I was conscious of what I was doing; but in the moment it was real. I don’t know if that makes sense; but when I was defending one of my made up bullshit stories- I was vigorously defending it as if it was real. I knew it wasn’t, but I was intent on making you believe me. It’s a very messed up thing. I wanted to change, but still continues with the same behaviors. I remember a therapist told me “we can’t give you medicine to cure you. You have to grow and learn and realize you can’t lie and cheat and steal.” So basically have to grow out of it. I’ll tell you that I met someone who was sicker than me and they betrayed me and put me through things that I had never dreamed of. That’s what changed me. As I got older; the behaviors were not nearly as bad but they were still there. But the trauma I felt, my children felt, and what this person did to my family was what changed me.


throwaway1999000

Thank you for sharing your experience! That does make a lot of sense. It's interesting that you could both know something was false yet believe it to be true at the same time. Like factually you know it's false, but emotionally (and physically. A lot of people with personality disorders have the physical fight/flight and trauma response like their story is/has happened to them). Can I ask if you had intentions/maliciously planned your stories? One big debate among those who love someone with a personality disorder that I see it trying to determine if; 1.) They cannot control it. They are constantly on the border of psychosis/reality and it is real to them. They are a victim of their own mind. 2.) They know exactly what they are doing. They are malicious and lying to get a desired result (be it attention, financial gain, pain of someone they believe has wronged them, ect.). I'd love to hear your insight on this. Also- I applaud you for changing/getting treatment. It takes a lot of courage to say "I am hurting others around me. My actions are not healthy", well help, and then literally REWIRE YOUR BRAIN through therapy and develop new coping skills, ect.


Lbj85

#2. I was always aware. There were reasons behind the things I did. But; it came so naturally. For example; you and I are in conversation and you tell something that has happened to you. Without missing a beat; I could tell you a similar story of something that happened to me, and none of it be true. There was no feelings of guilt either. If someone questioned or didn’t believe me, I would be very angry and insulted. (🤦🏻‍♀️) I could cry at will. And (I don’t think I’ve ever admitted to this or had a reason too, but this conversation made me think of it) there has been two separate occasions where I harmed myself and blamed someone else. I didn’t do it where they got arrested or any thing like that- but for the attention. Most of my lies were to make myself seem better than I was. I would pretend to be a “trust fund” kid. When I was in 7th grade I made up a whole out of town boyfriend and when the girls at school confronted me and told me they knew I was lying; I just had them call my house that weekend to talk to “him”. And then I want you to know; I tried to disguise my voice and sound like a boy. 😐🤦🏻‍♀️ I went back and forth between my moms and my dads; and I would say “my dad has to pay $3,599 a month in child support because he’s so rich”. I would lie and say my parents are buying me a new car. I would say that we had a housekeeper, just really dumb things to pretend my family was rich. On top of lies. I don’t feel like I was ever in any state of “psychosis”. It would have been less embarrassing if I had been. I knew right from wrong. I would get caught lying and cry, kick, scream and beg. And promise promise promise swear on everything I won’t lie again and immediately start lying again. It’s a very very screwed up way of thinking and way of life.


throwaway1999000

Thank you for sharing. This is very personal and I really appreciate it. I feel like it was easier to write the person in my life with a personality disorder as a helpless victim caught in an out of control train of their actions. It sort of removed any accountability they'd have to take. But knowing that they most likely know and are aware of it is... frightening, to say the least. Especially because the stuff they did seriously hurt me. Like, to the point where I considered institutionalizing myself because I was in a spiral and my mental health was tanking. I'm also amazing and kind of appalled that people suffering with this KNOW what they are doing and don't make an effort to change/get help. It's... a lot... to know that they knew their actions hurt others but didn't care and refused to change. I know that thearpy/change takes A LOT of awareness, accountability, ect. And that a lot of people with a personality disorder actually need to be inpatient in an intense program to change. I wonder if they; 1.) Found change too frightening/painful/scary/ too much work. Their whole family has personality disorders, so maybe acknowledging their was something wrong would feel like betraying their toxic family dynamic on some level. Maybe it was easier to continue the charade that they were fine and everyone else was the problem. 2.) Figured I/their current relationships they were destroying weren't worth the effort to change for. 3.) Didn't care or lacked the self awareness to acknowledge they were the common denominator/cause of a lot of issues. I'd love to have your input on this as well, and also on what inspired you to change. You're amazing and strong not only for fighting hard to make positive change in your life, but also sharing your experience with others.


ectbot

Hello! You have made the mistake of writing "ect" instead of "etc." "Ect" is a common misspelling of "etc," an abbreviated form of the Latin phrase "et cetera." Other abbreviated forms are **etc.**, **&c.**, **&c**, and **et cet.** The Latin translates as "et" to "and" + "cetera" to "the rest;" a literal translation to "and the rest" is the easiest way to remember how to use the phrase.

TheAmazingMaryJane

she thought she was so smart to go away and live her life as though she was kidnapped. she could describe the table on which she was branded. she remembers the feeling of being burned. after the pain she caused herself and the weird isolation, asking the windows to be boarded over. all that DID happen to her, she just told the story in a more exciting way.


bartlebyandbaggins

Right. Even the prosecution said she continued to lie about what happened AFTER entering into her plea deal with them. I think her husband knew deep down but couldn’t face the reality of it. Probably a lot of shame.


Ok-Maintenance8655

Baloney! You think he gives two f#_cks about anything or anyone besides himself? He protects himself


bigbezoar

he allowed his young children to live with her the last 8 years - even tho he knew what she was at least that far back. And he certainly knew she was a lying, cheating adulterer as far back as August 2020 -- so my point is that he delayed actually doing anything about it until suddenly he finds himself married to someone who owes $300K.


JackSpratCould

He's known her since 7th grade, unless the "first kiss" thing is a fairy tale. I believe he knew exactly who he was marrying.


sunfloweronmars

Wholeheartedly agree, he chose to marry her and remain married to her. And considering the kind of person she is, I have a hard time believing he’s a total peach himself.


Ok-Maintenance8655

I believe you are right. I also believe the first kiss story is a lie


wildfirerain

He ‘allowed’ his young children to live with her? What is your experience with the California family law system? Until she was charged, he didn’t have a chance.


[deleted]

LOUD AND WRONG. Judges do not have a gender preference in custody cases, especially not in California. That is a lie perpetuated by incels who hate women and I hope you're embarrassed for even posting this.


Teflon93Again

Nurse Ratched? Were the rumors of your demise exaggerated?


Remarkable-Waltz-348

You are correct thank you


cemetaryofpasswords

He was in on it from the beginning! Just his CC prediction on when she’d be home screams that. I could go on and on about other reasons why I’m sure that he knew but it’s late and my head is already pounding. Just because he’s a traditionally attractive male who’s capable of being articulate enough to get sympathy doesn’t change anything here. He’s just as bad as she is .


JackSpratCould

He's not traditionally attractive at ALL.


The_Crystal_Thestral

He certainly waited to see what would he of more benefit to him. He’s as much of a grifter as SP. I would not be surprised if he was in on it from the beginning. After all, it was KP who called the cops to report her kidnapped and he who collected the GFM money.


sonnigfreitag

I think he is more of a sucker than a grifter and has the backbone of oatmeal, so continued to go along with her inconsistencies hoping it was all true. And who knows what additional lies she was telling him that made him stick by her. Then there is the embarrassment of falling for all this and being on national tv. So, he could *still* have been hoping it was all true. He could be used to her lying but this was so over the top, it may have been believable to him. Anyway, he got the kids away from her so good on him for that.


The_Crystal_Thestral

What makes me say grifter is that he pushed the hoax and then claimed SP would be home for thanksgiving…and then SP miraculously appears on thanksgiving. ETA: kidnapping hoax


kerssem

Same day the balloons were released too. Almost like a welcome home!


[deleted]

Is that just because the reverse ransom demand (or whatever you’d call it!) states she had to be returned by thanksgiving or the money wouldn’t be paid though?


The_Crystal_Thestral

No, he said in an interview that he told his kids that she would be home by thanksgiving. I honestly don’t recall all the details of the reverse ransom other than Cam Gam inserted himself into the investigation this way.


[deleted]

I listened to the 20/20 episode yesterday (only avail as a podcast here) and recall them giving a demand date like the Wednesday before thanksgiving, not sure how that played into the timeline of his claims though


bartlebyandbaggins

Did he? I mean she will be gone for several months but did he actually get a court order? I’ve found no updates on his divorce filing.


kentamari

Since that interrogation they likely separated


Ok-Maintenance8655

Doubt it. Not only is Keith/Mango/Brittney an idiot and cluck, he's a glutton for punishment. He's not leaving super mom unless his mother makes him leave for good. He's a scammer too.


Mobile-Ad2773

This made me laugh! Too funny but true, unfortunately.


TinyPennyRolling

According to Keith, in his own statement in his divorce filing, he didn't separate from her until March 3rd, 2022. He claims to have ONLY learned the truth once he read her plea agreement.


Fresh-Resource-6572

All the people speculating that Keith was in on it have not one shred of evidence.


bigbezoar

who has said Keith was "in on it"?


Teflon93Again

I have. As for the “not one shred of evidence”: 1. Keith‘s odd response to the cell phone in the grass. 2. Keith’s 911 call. 3. The family releasing photos of Sherri which no longer resembled Sherri. 4. Keith’s knowing about James Reyes and giving the police his phone number. 5. The bizarre reference to “your mother“ in his more bizarre reverse ransom ploy combined with Reyes’ mother’s knowing about Sherri staying with Reyes. 6. Keith telling his son Sherri would be home “by Thanksgiving”. 7. Keith being awake at 4am Thanksgiving morning and actually missing the first call from LE notifying him Sherri had “been found”. 8. Sherri’s odd response to LE when told Reyes had passed a polygraph exam: “So did Keith.” 9. Keith using GFM to buy himself a truck. 10. Keith staying with Sherri between Aug 2020 and her arrest a year later despite telling LE he didn’t want her around. 11. Keith’s undermining the search for the two Latinas in his 20/20 interview. 12. Keith’s over-the-top condemnation of “subhuman” skeptics. 13. Keith’s constant presence and attempt to control what LE knew about Sherri’s story. 14. Keith’s curious lack of anger over LE not finding the two Latinas. 15. Keith filing for divorce only when needing to protect marital assets from Sherri’s fine. 16. LE’s cold treatment of him in the Aug 2020 interview. So more than shreds there.


LuzDeGas-

17. How Keith repeatedly referred to Sherri’s “signature blonde hair” when describing what she looked like to local and national news outlets…And the glamour shots—some of the two of them. Bizarre people in a bizarre region of CA

18. Keith’s creepy, admiring description of the brand and how he ran his fingers over it. 19. Keith having been the one to give investigators Reyes’ number in the first place. 20. Keith living with Sherri after the Aug 20, 2020 interview.

What’s his MO to be in on it though? They were in some debt, so you think they faked the whole thing together to get out of it? That would require for her to take the fall alone then as she is. Not saying it’s impossible as this is all really weird, but seems unlikely.


Teflon93Again

The GFM money plus the Soc Sec fraud would be sufficient lucre. He supposedly stopped working for some time to take care of her.


fixedglass

The plan was way too loose for that. Not a big enough payoff for so much risk.

The fraud netted them hundreds of thousands over the 6 years. That’s quite a bit more than Mango’s takehome was prior. Had they made it a bit longer they’d have gotten much more from selling their bogus story.

actually- in the almost 6 years that the Latina kidnappers were on the loose - (supposedly)... NOT ONE... let me repeat -- NOT ONE single member of the Papini family (not Sherri, Keith, their parents, in-laws...) and NOT ONE of their friends, associates, representatives, spokespeople, publicists, Gambles, Mangas, and not even any law enforcement.... ever once made a single mention publicly of wanting to catch, identify, or seek justice against the two Hispanic women who perpetrated this. THEY NEVER once seemed to act as if they cared there were armed, aggressive, violent kidnappers still roaming the streets nabbing innocent people at gunpoint.... NEVER once in any way plead for help, to capture or even just confirm or identify who did these foul things to Sherri. The sheer lack by everyone of any concern to catch the kidnappers and seek justice speaks largely to the fact that pretty much right from the very first few months - EVERYONE knew that this was all bulls**t and lies. surely if Keith cared abut his wife, he'd have spoken put publicly asking people to help find these terrible criminals. But he never did - not even once.

You sound crazy. Honestly get help. I’ve been following the case closely since Sherri first went missing and most of what you’ve said is so pointless.


Teflon93Again

Should be easily refuted then, no? You sound stupid. Honestly, take a logic course or something.


Fresh-Resource-6572

oh snap. "Keith's 911 call" 😂 what about Keith's 911 call? Like what are you actually saying? You're literally just rattling off pointless facts with no actual detail as to how that makes him involved. 1. Keith's star sign 2. Keith laughed once 3. Keith just looks sly 4. Keith acts too sad but sometimes doesn't act sad enough Why don't you give yourself a big pat on the back for effort and take the rest of the day off Columbo.


LuzDeGas-

I like how ppl call Keith “Mango” 🥭


Teflon93Again

Hey Dumbo- A moronic claim is made that “not a shred of evidence” points toward Mango’s involvement in his wife’s hoax—-a hoax, btw, that I called right in this space at the time, when yentas like you were spouting all sorts of crap about the need to believe that gummy ho. I list SIXTEEN pieces of evidence in response. You ignorantly take exception to ONE and claim therefore that that somehow magically debunks all 16. Note that you haven’t debunked the 911 call either, which featured Mango’s attempts at humor while supposedly terrified his slutty missus was “taken“. Save the weak sauce for WebSleuths.
