  1. You should be allowed to disappear if you want. She shouldn't have lied about it that's what got her in trouble.

  2. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ creative crackers

  3. Her wearing that Reese's University sweater is gold. Hilarious. Gotta rep something since she dropped out of her real university.

  4. Whaaaaaaat? They actually arrested a white woman for lying? Times are definitely changing

  5. Mental health is a mf hopefully she gets healthy

  6. This could be a Novel. Hopefully with a redemption ending.

  7. Look at how far women are willing to go just to keep a lie going.. we need laws to protect us from these types of women..

  8. What comes to my mind, is that old saying, THE BOY WHO CRIED WOLF. Now if this really happened to the girl next time, the police might not believe it while she's being kidnapped at gun point and found murdered the next day.

  9. We got another Sherri Papini this is ridiculous

  10. Entitled bimbo! !! NO SYMPATHY when Brittany Wiley and her 12 year old really were kidnapped!!!

  11. Bro she copied Zach stone

  12. Frickin nut job wackos intelligence and common sense is hard to come by these days

  13. She’s probably addicted to TikTok too

  14. Hmmm..to get out of work πŸ€” not a bad idea πŸ˜…

  15. We need to hug our kids and tell them we love them just the way they are! Bad grades, Good grades hey everyone is build different with their own path. Hope she gets the right type of help!

  16. Everyone is gangsta until they get caught πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™‚οΈ

  17. It was scared we couldn' t find this beautiful,honest living ,never get in trouble,pure white girl GTFOHπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  18. The old Sheri Papini move.

  19. Didn't she see the other Blonde girl's (Sherri Papini) unsuccessful story foldout in front of the world. Yet, she takes the same formula.

  20. The eyes tell no lies.

  21. So much for believe all women.

  22. Another blonde false kidnapping again? Hope she gets arrested

  23. She faked her college years and her kidnapping. Yeah, she needs a couple of years behind bars. The public will be celebrating when she goes to prison.

  24. Parents, participate with your children. Just when you think you can trust them, thats when you better be going back and following up. The adult child rationale is that youre getting away with it so often your whole life becomes a lie. And then you blame everyone else for not seeing what a liar and manipulator you have become….

  25. But did she ever actually falsely inform or mislead the police or did she just try to trick her friends in family because theres a huge difference if the latter she shouldn’t be held accountable at all

  26. She just couldn't keep up all the lies. Now she has to figure it all out.

  27. Introduce her to chandler halderson

  28. Running away by faking a kidnapping, now she's going to face Reality. Imagine how many people are legitimately missing yet she thought it was ok to do this

  29. She said Penn State but she meant she was going to State Pen.

  30. Hahahahahahaahahahah

  31. I'm not saying she didn't lie, and given these few details, it seems as though she did, but if this is all that there is to know, then they are jumping to conclusions too quickly. They are basing this off of the fact that she lied about something else that is completely unrelated. That doesn't automatically mean that she falsified this statement, or any other statement. They need to reserve judgement until a conviction is made.

  32. this story is CRAZY & funny. now she's stuck, no college degree or education. a criminal record with possible conviction coming. her parents should cut her off financially. no bail, no money for lawyer. let her make it on HER own. she's a grown 23 yr old woman. not a 18 yr old kid. πŸ˜³πŸ˜•

  33. Unless you are attending college for a medical degree or the equivalent, the effort is in vain. Too many "educated" idiots in our society today who complain that their masters degree in modern dance theory will not gain them employment equivalent to their level of debt. Proof that their time in so called "higher education" was a complete waste of time and resources.

  34. Attention seeking at this age…..well, that tells you that this will be her main focus throught her life. It's unlikely she will change. I would hate to be her future husband and children in the future. Good luck to whomever ends up with her.

  35. Typical woman playing victim to avoid taking responsibility! Happens ALL the time.
