He describes her being thrown from a vehicle with a chain around her waist attached to her wrists and a bag over her head after being held for more than three weeks. The brand on papinis body a possible lead. Keith said it was already beginning to heal. Im not able to go into the specifics of what the branding is. But it could be a number of different messages. You know what the brandings were . Yes. Did they Say Something . It is not a symbol, but it was a message. To who . Could be a message to her, it could be a message to others. If you go deeper with this, as to why they would brand a person, i think its probably twofold. One, its a control thing and its also theyre trying to move her, in my view, further and further away from her identity. Reporter in his statement keith expressing gratitude to everyone who helped his family through this torturous journey and contempt to those suggesting her disappearance may have been some sort of hoax. When youre looking at a profile of someone that would kidnap a female and cut off her hair, what does that person look like to you .

Well, right now still the two hispanic female adults armed with a hand 51. Reporter Shasta County Sheriffs Office is focused on locating two women papini said were driving a darkcolored suv. This has the flavor of someone who has been taken for a particular purpose. Not to ransom away or to maybe even sell to somebody else. Thats what makes this kidnapping extremely unusual. Chp is advising she is heavily battered and it as confirmed kidnapping. Its been six days since papini was found bound on the side of a california highway. Shes described as her family as super mom. She vanished november 2nd after going out for a run. Her husband keith immediately on edge, arriving home from work to an empty house. He began a desperate search using the find my iphone app. He located sherris cell phone on the side of the road a mile from their home with strands of her hair tangled in her earbuds. I went to pick it up. At this point everything that i was going through my head, i already knew something was wrong, so i immediately called 911. Reporter keith passing a polygraph test early. Ruling him out as a suspect. Just four days after she disappeared, keith shared his shock and confusion over why anyone would target his wife. Everybody loved sherri. Theres no one that doesnt like sherri. I dont have the words, but you know, some sick type of thing. Reporter also his desperate pleas for sherris safe return. Bring her home. Just bring her home. Reporter then in dramatic fashion, at 4 30 in the morning, she appeared. It was dark. Just like this. Sherri papini told authorities her captors just dropped her off, right there behind me, 150 miles from her home on thanksgiving day. Authorities say she was bound with restraints but was able to flag down a passing driver. Other drivers were calling 911. I saw a woman come out of nowhere. Frantically waving what looked like a shirt up and down. Reporter keith telling abc news that shirt was actually the bag that had been placed over her head. I mean, she definitely looked frightened. And like yeah she had like a wideeyed panic kind of look. Reporter Alison Sutton was driving down this dark yolo county road when she says she passed papini and called 911. She pretty much just came out of nowhere. It startled me but i figured, you know, if somebody was desperate enough for help, that they were willing to be so close to traffic that they might get hit, that they really needed help. Reporter at the time, sutton didnt know who the woman was. I do feel like i got to be a witness to a small miracle. Reporter pettini was treated and released from an area hospital where she was reunited with her husband keith. Together they made at least one phone call to the mayor of her hometown with an emotional thank you for the communitys support. Overjoyed. Just that she was able to talk and give thanks. And sherri of course was tearful on the phone. Even talking about it now, im getting tearful. I mean, there isnt anything better. Sherri has got a long road ahead of her from a psychological standpoint, as any of us would that would have experienced what it appears she has gone through in the last three weeks. Reporter with mystery still swirling about whos responsible, this Northern California community is on edge should the community be worried . The community should be concerned.
