Sherri Papini made her kids ‘breathe in’ rubbing alcohol to make them sick, ex-husband says

The ex-husband of Sherri Papini, the California woman who faked her own kidnapping in 2016, is now accusing her of making their children sick by forcing them to inhale rubbing alcohol.

Papini “vanished” in November 2016 for 22 days until she was found several hundred miles away, dramatically covered in bruises, claiming she had been held captive by two Latina women. But the kidnapping was staged so she could reconnect with a former lover. Her case has drawn comparison to the fictional “Gone Girl” book and movie.
