Sherri Papini, the California mom who disappeared for three weeks in November of last year, is reportedly living as a recluse in her Shasta Lake home.

Several of Papini's neighbors have spoken out about the 35-year-old blond, who claims she was kidnapped by two Hispanic women. The people living next door to Papini say that she is rarely seen and does not interact with them.

"She's a quiet person," Joyce Allison said while talking with Daily Mail. "She keeps herself to herself and stays at home with the kids."

Papini and her husband, Keith Papini, have two kids together named Tyler, 5, and Violet, 3.

Allison continued by saying: "I've been here 12 years and I've never seen her jogging. The only time I've ever spoken to him [Keith] was when she went missing. He came to ask if he could search my yard."

Another neighbor by the name Douglas Lea witnessed the same type of behavior from Papini and her husband.

"They're here. They're around," he said. "They just kind of keep themselves to themselves so this is nothing new. I've seen him around a few times and the kids as well. My mother-in-law has seen her."

Now that Papini is back with her family, she is battling to pick up the pieces of her life, her father-in-law Kenneth says.

"It's been hard for them and they're trying to put their lives back together," Kenneth, 63, said. "She talks to the Sheriff and she's told him everything that she knows [about her kidnapping]. Even we don't know everything."

Another unidentified family source said that Papini and her husband "have been through enough."

"They've been through a lot. They've been through more than enough already. But they will be OK," the source said.

At this time the investigators on the case are still working on the assumption that Papini was kidnapped. However, there have been several other theories about her disappearance, which caused one of the largest manhunts in California history.

Papini told police that she was jogging when two Hispanic women abducted her. She was found three weeks later on Thanksgiving morning and was located nearly 150 miles away in Yolo, California.

She was discovered on the side of the I-5 freeway and had managed to escape her captors despite being chained.

When Papini was found, her long blond hair had been chopped off and she was beaten and battered. She was also branded by one of her alleged kidnappers.

At this point, the investigators have not been able to find Papini's alleged captors.
