She came back home two days after the alleged abduction. Her family had stuck by her story, even after police publicly expressed scepticism.

After it was revealed to all be an elaborate hoax, the Hoover Police Department have now decided to charge Carlee for her involvement in the hoax.

According to NBC News, an arrest warrant was put out for Carlee earlier today and she has since turned herself into police.

Her misdemeanor charges are for false reporting to law enforcement authorities and falsely reporting an incident. She was released shortly after for posting bond.
