  • After disappearing in broad daylight and sparking a nationwide search, Sherri Papini mysteriously returns, battered and branded; when her tantalizing tale turns out to be fake, the world turns against her; she says the real story has never been told.

  • The wife and mother at the center of one of the most sensational kidnapping cases ever speaks for the first time about the circumstances that led to her mysterious disappearance, why she lied to the FBI and what the media got wrong about her story.

  • A convicted liar, Sherri enters prison with a target on her back; after release, troubling details of her childhood and, later, her marriage to Keith are revealed, and her inability to recall details of her story leads to an on-camera breakdown.

  • Sherri Papini gains infamy for lying to the FBI, but the public perceives her based on a one-sided narrative; Papini pleads guilty and goes to prison for lying about her abduction, but her side of the story has never been told until now.
