SP really looks tense in that video. Good.
I’ll leave my comment(s) at that but oh, my…..the things I would like to say…..

ETA okay I lied lol…..I do have another comment. I re-watched the video of SP being released on bond & I had forgotten how hectic & chaotic the scene was, & it seemed to go on forever….what a circus! Her walk into the courthouse today with her atty was much more calm & controlled.

“Unlike the chaotic scene last month, when Papini was released on bond from the Sacramento County Main Jail and ran through a sea of reporters and photographers to a waiting vehicle, Portanova escorted her to court without incident.”

Yeah, I don't know. I'm not a lawyer but I can't see any court having the power to force a woman with minor children to get a job in order to repay debts.
She was working at a cell phone store when she abruptly took her 3 week vacay, and she took her kids to daycare, so its not like she's always been a stay at home super mom.

After the trauma she put them through at such a young age, wondering where mommy was and when she was coming home, she's a crappy mom anyway.

She can go back to work. She just can't keep the wages.
 
SP kept lying up until AUG 2020

"I will work the rest of my life to try to make amends..."

We've already gotten a few suggestions on places where she can work the rest of her life. I like the removing litter off the side of the highways suggestion.

It seems the food she has consumed while out of jail hasn't been to her liking either.

She is starving herself again to look like a poor little hostage waif of the justice system this time.

I hope she does time and has to pay back every dime she stole....from the state, feds and the poor fools that donated to the gimme fund.
 
Who knows, Netflix may soon be knocking on Sherri's door.

Both Anna Delvey/Sorokin and the "Bad Vegan" Sarma Melngailis received money from Netflix for their stories. In Delvey's case the court froze her payment from Netflix then unfroze it so she could pay her debts. Melngailis paid her ex-employees and lawyer.

Not that I have any interest in seeing Papini's story. I've had quite enough, thanks. :mad:
I’d like to see Josh Mankiewicz rip her a new one on “Dateline.”

She's a schemer and always has been. She's probably not eating to make herself weak and sick so she has to be hospitalized. That beats going to prison or working to pay back the small fortune she owes.

When I saw her picture, I thought the same darn thing!!

If that's the case she's jumping the gun a bit. Sentencing in this case isn't until July 11. She may not have to serve any time behind bars. JMO.

The more time to make herself sick and possibly hospitalized, the better. But you're right---she may not be sentenced to any time. I have a feeling there's going to be a lot of outrage if that happens.

Would the prosecution agree to a plea deal that doesn't include any jail time?
 
She can't file bankruptcy but it appears she's currently indigent anyway, unless she has assets of her own to declare.

I suspect her house, car and other assets are owned jointly with her husband and I don't think the government can punish him for her debts. And AFAIK she doesn't even have a job. So where would the funds come from?

Apparently all the restitution, etc is due in full immediately on sentencing! There is some mention of a payment plan here though. Page 3. I expect her parents are working on something right now.

Defendant agrees that all criminal monetary penalties imposed by the court, including restitution,
will be due in full immediately at time of sentencing and subject to immediate enforcement by the
25 government. Defendant agrees that any payment schedule or plan set by the court is merely a minimum
26 and does not foreclose the United States from collecting all criminal monetary penalties at any time
27 through all available means

The sentencing is up to the judge who can ignore the plea agreement and sentence SP to the maximum penalty. Or no prison time.
The Court is not a party to this plea agreement. Sentencing is a matter solely within the discretion of the Court, and the Court may take into consideration any and all facts and circumstances concerning the criminal activities of defendant, including activities which may not have been charged in the Information. The Court is under no obligation to accept any recommendations made by the government, and the Court may in its discretion impose any sentence it deems appropriate up to and including the statutory maximum stated in this plea agreement.

Apparently the court can revoke her supervised release, if that’s what she’s gets, for failure to pay the restitution. Contempt is also an option. Let’s see what happens.
 
I’m a “why” person.

Why did she do this? Attention needed from husband? Money? Why?

To put your family and friends through this traumatizing event is unconscionable. Her children must have been terrified.

Honestly, she should spend some serious time in jail. The party’s over for this girl.

MOO

I think she’s an attention-seeking narcissist. Possibly borderline as well. She’s been making up stories for decades. My big hope is that she hasn’t ever harmed her kids for attention because IMO, she’s the type.

IMO she has done harm to her children in a myriad of ways, not the least of which
are her lying snd deceitful behaviors that her children have witnessed and no
doubt experienced their entire lives.
 
Portanova described his client’s case to the AP as “a very complicated mental health situation, but one that has to be confronted and dealt with — and that includes admission and acceptance and punishment.” The attorney admitted he still has a difficult time figuring out why Papini faked her own kidnapping.

“Honestly, I don’t know if anybody does,” he said. “I don’t know if she knows.”
