Another Hoax: Alabama Woman Carlee Russell Admits to Fabricating Kidnapping – Police are *Considering* Criminal Charges
An Alabama woman on Monday admitted to making up a kidnapping tale to police which sparked a nationwide effort to find her.
Earlier this month Carlee Russell vanished after she called 911 to report she saw a stranded toddler walking on the side of a highway.
Russell’s abrupt disappearance led to a nationwide effort to find the 25-year-old nursing student.
Carlee Russell suddenly reappeared after going missing for 49 hours.
Police were suspicious of her kidnapping story after they were unable to determine where Russell was during those 49 hours after she made the 911 call.
Russell initially told police she was forced into an 18-wheeler truck where she was taken to a residence and told to undress.
