Mom blogger charged for falsely claiming kids were almost kidnapped

[Anonymous]

She's starved for attention, like Hilaria. Why else blog or insta in the first place? I think she'll get off on mental health issues because she's got them. bad.

Wonder if she'll live blog from jail.

"You guys know what really brightens up a jail cell? curtains!"

it sounds like she was charged with a misdemeanor. Doubtful she does any time or even pays much of a fine

I'm confused by this: Did she ever thing her kids were in danger, or did she make the whole thing up for attention/page views?

How well known is this blogger? What’s her blogger name?
Admittedly I’m out of the loop but just wondering. She seems to join an ever growing list of narcissistic, self-focused mentally unwell sorority of similar “famous” bloggers who’ve become unhinged.

Pretty much this.

She'll get a good lawyer who will spin a story of a mother who feared for her children's lives and thought that the abduction was happening because of what she'd seen on the news. She was being proactive! She's not racist! They'll bring in some POC character witnesses!

She'll get a small fine and probably a big book deal on personal growth.

And all of that sounds about white.

I want to know too. What was her motivation? Why did she target that family besides racism? Were they just a tool to viral fame?

She's desperate for attention. Like most mommy bloggers who exploit their kids for attention from strangers.

I think so too. I think the world of mommy influencers was over run since last year and it's getting harder and harder to get views and interactions to make money. And the bar changes over time so that you need more significant interaction to get some real return on your time and own product purchase investment.

Some of these women are working on making this their full time job and working their way up to that they need to maintain a certain look and do a lot of shopping on their own dime before they get picked up for sponsorships. Most start with amazon since it's fairly easy to get links to share and get compensation. But it still takes a lot of shopping to get a decent amount.

So when you really need to make money you look for a way to go viral. Most pick something that isn't a criminal act but then there are always going to be a few...

I hope she gets more charges than just filing a false police report. She needs to be sent to jail.

Sorensen will be arraigned on May 13, the prosecutor's office confirms.

If convicted, Sorensen faces a maximum penalty of 12 months behind bars.

So many people exactly like her get such a kick out of filing false police reports. Justice should be swift and severe - hopefully it is.

Understatement. Not just the bloggers.

I don't know if the couple did actually make comments about the children's appearance, of if that was also part of the lie, but I'm sure this all makes people of color more reluctant to exchange nice pleasantries ("what a cute hair bow!") and certainly less likely to "be the village" for white kids (e.g., if they saw a white toddler doing something unsafe at a store). It's all very sad that these racist self-interested types are creating this kind of world where people feel nervous about interacting with people of another race.

I reminds me a bit of the Blackish episode where Dre sees a little girl alone in an elevator without any adult, and just freezes because he doesn't want to grab a little white girl out of an elevator, or get on an elevator alone with her, and then be accused of kidnapping her.

I don't think I've ever heard of people doing actual time for false reports though -- even Jesse Smollett didn't, right?

The public humiliation aspect and some damage to her influencer aspirations is satisfying enough for me.

You are not the victim. And public humiliation in some circles is vindication in others who still believe her. Which is why we have a criminal justice system.

You all have no idea what happens in jails and prisons. She would likely be beaten and raped, and then leave even more delusional and unstable. You want her to hurt because she hurt someone, but you have no idea the magnitude and cyclical repercussions for society.
