Lyin' nigga ho' Carlee Russell found guilty in kidnapping hoax, will have to pay $18K in restitution

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WIAT) — Carlee Russell, a nursing student who made 
international news when she faked her own kidnapping over the 
summer, was found guilty of the false report.

During a municipal court hearing Wednesday, Judge Brad Bishop found 
Russell guilty of filing a false police report and falsely reporting 
the incident, where she reported seeing a child walking along I-459 
before she went missing on July 13. On July 15, she walked back to 
her home in Hoover, where she told police that she had been 
abducted.

However, after a days-long investigation by police into Russell’s 
statement, she admitted she had made the whole thing up.

Bishop ordered Russell to pay $831 for each misdemeanor charge, as 
well as over $17,000 in restitution. She is also facing up to a year 
in jail on the charges.
