California mother Sherri Papini mimicked the plot of Gone Girl by telling an ex-boyfriend to 'save' her from her abusive husband when she vanished in 2016, then spent two weeks living in his apartment after taking over his bedroom where she starved herself, injured herself and convinced him to burn her skin, according to federal prosecutors. Papini's husband Keith reported her missing on November 2, 2016, after returning home to find her gone and their kids still at daycare, where their mother would have collected them. For weeks, America watched in angst as police tried to find her. She appeared on Thanksgiving Day, some two weeks later, miraculously showing up on the side of the road where she claimed she'd been dropped off by her Hispanic kidnappers.
