Carlee Russell sentenced to one year in jail after staged kidnapping
Back in July, Carlee Russell trended on social media, after going
missing in Hoover, AL. Initial reports claimed that she had
initially gone missing after stopping on the side of an interstate
to help a baby that was in a stroller. However, the end result was
that Russell actually faked her kidnapping for some reason, as she
was eventually found at a nearby Birmingham hotel. Russell also had
mobile phone searches of the film âTaken,â as well as if she needed
to pay for Amber Alerts.
As a result, Russell went on to be charged with misdemeanor false
reporting to law enforcement authorities and falsely reporting an
incident. Moreover, she has now been sentenced in this case. This
comes after Russell plead guilty to one count to the initial false
reporting to law enforcement authorities and one count of falsely
reporting an incident. Therefore, Russell has been sentenced to one
year in jail, as well as being required to pay nearly $18,000 in
restitution, per ABC 33-40 and WVTM 13.
Carlee Russellâs incident was one of the biggest trending topics of
the year. Many initially voiced support for her, up until her going
missing was a hoax. To this day, many wonder why she put herself in
that situation to begin with.
