Get ready because this true crime story is absolutely wild! A 37-year-old woman in North Carolina was arrested last week after she allegedly faked her own murder!
According to the Franklin Police Department, Margaret “Maggie” Sweeney was reported missing on Friday, August 18, 2023. Law enforcement immediately began an investigation as they were given information claiming she was endangered, kidnapped, or deceased. A post was even made on social media asking the public for help locating a missing woman with brown hair and eyes.
But the next day, police revealed she “has been located in a neighboring town and is safe.” People took to the comments section of the Franklin Police Department’s Facebook account to express their relief over Margaret being found safe. The twist in this case, though? She was then taken into custody on Monday, August 21, 2023, after investigators figured out she was lying about her own disappearance and murder!

As First Sergeant Randy Dula continued to investigate the situation, police said he soon determined that Margaret had been the one who “allegedly made anonymous third-party false reports to a friend, and the Department of Social Services that she had been murdered.”
An arrest warrant obtained by HuffPost revealed Margaret allegedly pretended to be someone else through a text messaging app and claimed she had been beaten to death with a tire iron. This prompted the pal and the agent from DSS to report to the police
