Bay Area Mom Influencer Sentenced for False Kidnapping Claim

A Bay Area mom, who is also an influencer, has been sentenced to 90 days, including 30 days in jail, for knowingly making a false report of a crime. The woman had claimed an attempted kidnapping at a craft store, but evidence contradicted her account. The accused couple, who are Latino, believe the accusations were racially motivated. The mother, who allegedly engaged in QAnon conspiracy theories, will also serve 12 months of informal probation, including no social media presence, and undergo implicit bias training. The judge's decision aims to provide closure to the falsely accused couple.
