Hoax Claims Jenni Rivera Faked Own Death – Hoax-Slayer

Outline

Circulating report claims that famous Mexican-American singer Jenni Rivera faked her own death in 2012 and now faces 15 years prison for fraud and conspiracy.  




Brief Analysis

The claims in the report are false. Sadly, Jenni Rivera did indeed die in a December 2012 plane crash. Despite circulating rumours, there are no credible reports that support claims that Rivera is alive. The fake-news report was published by the Spanish language website Notaelpais, which uses logos stolen from news websites such as CNN to make its reports seem more legitimate.
