This is good news. And, it's pretty weird.
Sherri Papini was found safe and was reunited with her husband Keith on Thanksgiving Day.

2 days ago, on Tuesday, the private hostage negotiator (Cameron Gamble) working for Sherri's family made a public statement addressed to Sherri's abductors or anyone who knew where she was located. The Sheriff had advised the family against using intermediaries such as Gamble.
In his statement, Gamble noted that the large reward put up by an anonymous donor expired if he did not receive a call to negotiate the ransom exchange by Wednesday at 5:00 a.m. Sherri had been missing 3 weeks.
Early yesterday morning, Thanksgiving Thursday, Sherri Papini flagged down a motorist on I5 in rural Yolo County. She was bound with restraints and said that she had been released by her captors.
Police were called and she was taken to a hospital for medical clearance before being reunited with her family.
Shasta police held a press conference yesterday and said that Sherri had some injuries which were not life-threatening, but didn't expand on the injuries.
The Sheriff's Office is warning the public and telling them that they should remain cautious. According to officials, details of this investigation point to this being an isolated incident.
Sheriff Bosenko said that from his knowledge no tip had been called in, either into the ransom reward website or a tip line.
Bosenko told reporters that Sherri told investigators she was abducted by two Hispanic females with a handgun in a dark SUV.
Sheriff Bosenko said that this is still an active investigation and they will keep searching for Sherri's captor or captors.

I'm very curious to hear what Sherri told investigators went down during the 3 weeks that she was missing.
