    Amanda v. Sherri: Who is the Biggest Scammer?

    In a heated battle for the title of “The Biggest Scammer,” who would win? Amanda C. Riley– better known as “Scamanda”-- or Sherri Papini? That’s the question Candy and Ashley debate in this fun minisode! Which woman better played the long con? Who affected the broadest range of people, stole the most money, and stuck to her story the hardest? These are just a few of the questions that were considered in awarding the (anything but) coveted title! In addition, the hosts also share a few surprising twists that weren’t mentioned in the released episodes, including a shocking claim Keith made about Sherri at the end of the Hulu docuseries. Finally, the minisode closes with a discussion of lessons that can be learned from these two notorious scammers.

    Sherri Papini: Kidnapping Victim or Gone Girl?

    On November 24, 2016, a woman who’d been missing for 22 days, Sherri Papini, was spotted by a trucker on the side of the road, wearing chains and screaming for help. Upon examination, the beautiful wife and mother of two was discovered to be emaciated, her body showing signs of terrible abuse, including a brand on one shoulder.  For years investigators tried to find the kidnappers, two Hispanic women who reportedly took Sherri at gunpoint while she was out for a run.  But then Sherri’s story started to unravel, raising this question: Instead of a victim, was Sherri Papini actually a ‘Gone Girl’ who’d not only staged her own kidnapping, but also inflicted–or directed– her own torture? Hostage or hoax? Join us as we unravel the fascinating case of Sherri Papini.  How to support Scandal Water: Rate, review, and subscribe!
