Nah, I dont believe for a second that a mother who sat back and watched her childen be tortured and abused has had a 180° complete turnaround and sees all the errors of her ways. She continues to be a manipulative narcissist
Agree….she’s crying because she’s exposed and going to jail
Yep
Exactly
So true
Agreed
Ruby has been abusing her kids way before Jody.. this is such a suck up. They both need 30+ years
People who watched her channel in comments have said they have seen her be a loving and caring mother, until something in her changed.
SOMEONE please call out those children's names !!!
@@CherylCronan-lg2rr Huh?
@@villanelle8888 The way Ruby & Kevin mocked, taunted, bullied & humiliated their children ON CAMERA is proof of their depravity & abuse. The more extreme abuse is just an obvious result of the prior abuse.
They may have had moments of happiness and laughter with their children, but have u ever put cayenne pepper on an open wound?
@@JEdwarrd Of course I haven't. Cayenne pepper has long been an ingredient used for medicinal purposes but it should not be used on cracked skin or open wounds not even mixed with honey as Jodi and Ruby did. I'd never even heard of the family until the Court case. I'm simply saying that I've read comments from people who watched their channel from the start and they said she used to be a loving and caring mother until something changed.
Eligible for parole in 4 years ? That’s crazy , they didn’t give the children a way out . They should throw away the keys for both of them .
No, they haven't set the exact time, you won't know that for another 8months
You are 100% on the mark. Possibly with bread and water diet, in the sun, barefoot and holding heavily loaded box would be the ticket. Doesn't that sound appropriate?
@@belindalucero9622 Yes Belinda....appropriate indeed. In addition to sprinkling a dose of cayenne pepper in wounds and the placing of duct tape here and there of course. ⚘
@@belindalucero9622And Ruby forced Even to jump in a cactus repeatedly😢😢😢😢
They both got consecutive sentences which means they follow each other, they increase the overall length of your jail/prison stay. Concurrent sentences, in contrast, run simultaneously and allow you to be released after the longest term ends.
If the sentence is less than the 15 years that would be an outrage.
When will they get the final sentence
8 months is my understanding is when they will let the public know the exact time. I'm guessing they will only be in prison 4 years....
@@allheartandsongis it 4 yrs. Then the parole decides (after the 4 years) if they should go farther?
@@Writer777-wanna_be. I think so, but someone commented on another video that in 6 months it will be decided if it stays 4 years or more, but since they both pleaded guilty there is no chance on them getting the maximum penalty, so they will most likely serve just 4 years or a little more or even less if they are let out on good behaviour or that kind of things… Jodi might get a havier sentence since she has shown no remorse and is the main mastermind behind it all. I hope Ruby is at least loosing her parental rights since if she stays in jail just 4 years she will be out before her youngest kids reach the age of 18. And she should not be let around them anymore.
@@Writer777-wanna_be. Its consecutive sentencing so they will have to serve one sentence at a time. Not concurrently which is at the same time. SO I would understand it that once they make parole for the first 1-15 years then they get to start the next 1-15yrs. So 4 years being the least if paroled after 1 year each. But I don't know exactly how this state runs consecutive sentencing. I am also guessing that the 30yr may be the max that can be served for this crime. Because it adds up to 4-60 years.
4 to 30 years- what does that even mean? It should be
30 years w/o parole, period.
If the youngest boy hadn’t
escaped, he and his sister
probably would have been starved to death🙏🏻😢💔
Exactly but the parole board hopefully will be smarter than that
@@mieshawilliams1994 I don’t think
I trust the parole board to keep them
in prison for 30 years, as they should.
It seems that the two youngest children got the worst of the abuse😢💔🙏🏻
@@mieshawilliams1994they RARELY are !
They will be in jail, untill kids are at least 18 and independant.The father is useless and passively abused them.
@@aneneschreuder5820I hope and wish the dad move away to another state with his children And she never see them again
Jodi still looks like she just does not understand why she is sitting in that chair. She's never said she was sorry for anything. She needs a long time out.
I know she just said she loved the children and hope they heal but …..NOT she’s sorry she put torment To them to heal from. Never ONE time did she say “I’m sorry” NOT ONCE!!!! that’s how cold her heart is….and when she sounded like she was crying I zoomed in on her eyes…NOT ONE TEAR!!!!!!! THAT speaks volumes of how cold her heart has gotten. It could stem from hurts in her life but why take it out in precious children, those sweet kind faces of the children show NO roughness. I use to work with troubled children and most have a ‘rough look’ when they were mean. These Franke children did not have that and I’m ‘thinking’(my opinion) Jodi was jealous of them for having a better childhood than her….(with the exception of wrongful discipline) Just a hunch.
That's what evil does
Apparently time out doesn’t work.😢
And Ruby is smirking and says she's sorry, but those are just words...
@@Writer777-wanna_be.
One needs a heart before it gets cold...
JOB HAS zero heart.
Don’ t believe a word she’s saying. Franke and Hildebrandt are both monsters. Deserve to serve every bit of 60 years. Consecutively. With no chance of appeal or parole. Those children. Including the older ones will need extensive therapy for the rest of their life. Franke’s husband also needs to be thoroughly investigated. He lived under the same roof as Ruby. He had to have been aware of the emotional and physical abuse. The daily imprisonment of their children. The starvation. And their lack of friends or social life. He is not guilt free.
And think of the children who were damaged because of their "teachings." There are more victims from their actions.
YES!!! Why isn't that man in jail too something ain't right here
Agreed… 👍
Very well put…👏👏
Absolutely agree! When their teenage son didn't have a room for 9 MONTHS because he played an innocent prank on his brother. He had to sleep on a bean bag chair in one of the living areas, so there is NO WAY the dad didn't notice that insane punishment!!
💯 she isn't sorry and all of a sudden she sees the errors of her ways??? When her family and others were telling her for years?? Come on who believes this BS???
Why is Ruby Franke saying her thank you’s like she has received an Oscar ?
I know it's disgusting. It reminded me of BTK and his statement.
Narcissism in full view here
😂
This judge is a joke. Too easy on them. She tortured and imprisoned her children. She denied movement! She bound her children.
The Judge, DA, and many Law Enforcement officials are elected by the people...before citizens cast their vote, maybe they need to consider how each individual regards serious/ violent crimes, as well as sentencing guidelines. People are conveniently critical after the fact, which makes no sense to me.
Ruby has a lot of nerve calling her SEVERELY abused children as “her little chicks” 🙄 YES they were as vulnerable as little chics… and you basically STOMPED on them!🤬😡
Say their names Ruby
True
She is still blaming others, just in a more underhanded way. Don't fall for it.
💯! She tossed in a LOT of word salad & fake tears or tears for herself & sprinkled in some carefully worded love yous to her kids & crap about her being the Mama duck & all her chicks I mean or whatever nonsense she was saying to distract from the absolute HORROR of what she did! She has NO REMORSE!!!
Yes, like for every word of sorry, three words were blaming it on others
Jodi's Defense Attorney expressed that she has remorse and takes full responsibility but JODI NEVER EXPRESSED either one.. Jodi never expressed remorse or took responsibility with her own word's..
The Lord 😂really really 😳 🙏 ❤
@@lorileew2337 It wasn't Jodi's responsibility to make sure those children weren't harmed, it was Ruby's their f'ing mother's job...!! She had one job and that was to be a good mom and she 100% failed at it...!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed she gets her butt kicked (more then once) while in jail....!!
I call bs...This woman is just sorry she got caught...
Good thing she was caught on time before something tragic would have happened.
Agree
Absolutely- she is reading a script which she will refer to at every parole hearing “see, I was really sorry and acknowledged that I did wrong” - LIAR
Absolutely
These two sadis knew exactly what they were doing and the damage they were causing .These children will carry this with them all the days of their lives .
That wasn’t discipline, it was abuse! The children are going to carry the physical and mental scars for the rest of their lives.
More like torture
@@therealz360z7 same thing!
Exactly- these kids lives and mental health are ruined FOREVER
I pray so much that the kids heal and break the cycle of abuse when it's time for them to have there own children or don't later on the don't rebel for not knowing how to manage what they are gonna start to feel while learning how to heal for what they were put threw I carry all those kids in my heart as I'm a mother and just can't and don't need to understand why that beast put them threw all that 😢😢
The fact that they were "teaching" other parents how to raise kids adds another level of crime IMO. People supported these women while they justified their abuse publicly.
Ακριβώς έτσι για αυτό και μόνο έπρεπε να πάρει ισόβια
They can't be charged for that unless their teachings had caused harm or the death of someone, and even that would be hard to prove whetlllr you had evidence or not . I'm sure they put up a disclaimer at the beginning p
The Church of Latter Day Saints SUPPORTED these women. They should be held accountable, too - They sent couples to these losers!
Exactly. Horrendous.
@@m.jaquarius8365They can be charged for abusing their own children and each other's children..Their children are not lying..
Tears are a little to late, child abusers!!!
Those kids will have trauma for life
ruby went from total ugly crying to not crying and talking to the judge in a millisecond..amazing how she did that
@@jeremybilbrey1133 Omg, I caught that too....!!
Absolutely important missing information where was the farther
And the boy that went for help is strong to get it to stop. Saving himself and his siblings and others
R is a very strong and "strong willed" kid. as well was E and Chad on the channel. R wasnt afraid to say what he thought...and to say no. IMO, thats what pissed Ruby Doo off. she couldnt handle kids that she couldnt control. the mddle girls and shari learned to appease ruby and become little ruby clones and didnt get into "that" much trouble from what i saw. R saved himself as well as his younger sister. He is an amazing boy. I pray he gets through this, and knows that people look up to him and what he accomplished. he saved his sister and by doing this....possibly saved other little kids that Jody would have abused in the future.
he is a brave little guy. I am so proud of him when he saw his chance to save them all.(his siblings)❤
Strength? The boy was desperate.
@@tuna9444Oh come on it took strength to have the bravery to go ask for help.. Strength because R knew how severe and painful his consequences would be they caught him or he was taken back to this heartless woman instead of rescued.. He saved his younger sibling and himself and exposed Ruby and Jodi's horrible abuse of their own children and each other's children..Saving all of the children involved in this horrible abuse and neglect..
I read somewhere that he was asking for the police when he knocked on the neighbours door because he thought he had done wrong - don’t know if it is true but if it is he was clearly brainwashed
Ruby Franke was completely responsible for all her children . Even before this she in my opinion still carried out very horrible treatment of her children on her RUclips channel which a lot of people raised concerns but nothing was done. In my opinion listening to her speech it’s still all about her it’s completely utter B/S.
It’s kinda scary that she had this content up for as long as she did. Those poor kids
15 years is even a small thing for what she did to those children. You cant tell me beating,starving,tieing up your children was an accident or whatever...she should never be aloud to see her children again or be around children.
Both of these despicable monsters are eligible for parole in just 4 years. That is insanity!
When she gets out I bet her children will be afraid of her and will never want to see her again
How in the world did these two psychos think that what they were doing was ok?
There's plenty more like them out there right now. They walk among us
Some sickos like them try to twist religion into backing up starvation and physical abuses. Others are just plain hateful abusers that were abused and now have the power to take back control. And thus becoming the ABUSER
Because lawyers justice system let them believe this.
They're getting away with it .. might as well be back home WITH the kids! These systems ain't like they used to be! They're getting sentenced longer for molestation than physical abuse!?!? This is all too fkd up for me OMG
@@patriciahayashi9162
Because they think they serve a fairytale sky daddy who OKed their crimes.
When will humanity finally get rid of religions???
Oh my gosh.. she’s actually portraying herself as the victim. She’s acting like she’s giving a Mormon speech at church. As someone who grew up Mormon in Utah, that’s exactly how this sounds. She’s thanking everyone for most of her entire speech… like she’s won an award.
I find her speech REPULSIVE.😡😡🤬
FURY
The church hasnt made a statement against her either. Which is sad
The award she has won is a guilty finding by her peers and a WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too short prison sentence ...
Liar. She's not protecting anyone. She's didn't want it going to trial, so she didn't have to face all of the horrible detailed abuse she put these kids through. She's not being a martyr, she's still acting in a self serving way. I can too see her bull crap from here.
Yep. She's still bullshting
Facts. She and Hildebrandt are both complete narcissists.
Exactly! Because years of YT footage! She didn’t want everyone to see
I understand it would have been very hard on the kids to go to trial...but this is the one case where it was warranted. people needed to see the dephs of Jodys abuse history. she should never be released...but since they didnt go to trial, she is looking at 3-4 yrs as opposed to 60 yrs.
and so will the parole board. 2 children almost died. they aren’t stupid
The minimum should be way higher!! Children literally have to die to see any kind of real justice. It’s an outrage.
And sometimes they don't even see it then! It's sickening😢
@@mamalu836😥😥😥
Even then it's "homicide by child abuse" instead of a murder charge.
And they would have died if he gadnt escaped
research indicated the value of a child in society is very low therefore the legal system penalizes very low😢 it's economics , what an adult contributes to society is far more valuable than what a child contributes. In fact children draw from the economy instead of contribute and that's how the court system bases penalties😢
The husband Kevin knew what was going on,remember no Christmas for the two youngest that’s so cruel emotional abuse.
He just as guilty!!
I almost cry when I think of how these little children must have felt that Christmas morning. When I think of little Eve not getting lunch because she forgot. I never watched or heard of the show 8 Passengers until the video of Russell running away to neighbors for help. I was shocked! Then I saw a video of Jodi talking into the camera expressing anger because people were not liking and commenting on her videos, getting the algorithm up because she had bills to pay! I was shocked again! I think by this point, must have been when their audience was catching on to how they were abusing children. Everything about this is shocking except what Jodi did to Ruby. It's obvious that Jodi is so in love with Ruby, but because being gay is frowned upon in the LDS religion, she didn't persue the conversation. Jodi did however, get Ruby to turn against her husband. People say he's just as guilty, but so aren't the 2 oldest kids? Why didn't they go to police? I guess I have some reviewing of videos to do, if they're still up.
@@loribaker8339the oldest daughter did contact the police at one time or another… this was after she became of age & was out on her own attending college. She also has her own channel.
Plus Jody destroyed many marriages. She put her own niece through terrible trauma as well. She (niece) also contacted the police. Nothing was done to protect her. Was years ago when her niece was only 16 years old. No one protected her!
There is a channel exposing the Mormon way & beliefs… by other exMormons. Many are coming forward exposing what is going on within the church & their teachings. Unfortunately I cannot recall their channel names. So sad to learn of just how many lives have been negatively affected through the guidance of the Mormon church. Many couples were referred to Jody Hildebrandt by the Mormon Bishop himself. I feel there is a money trail. Kickbacks. (?)
They all need to be investigated! If you do a search here on RUclips… I’m sure you’ll find the niece(same last name), and other channels I’ve mentioned here.
I stopped watching it about a month ago. It became too depressing. Those poor children & others who Jody traumatized.
Narcissist witch!
On another note… I knew these two would throw each another under the bus… blaming one another. Here we are, both blaming the other in this video. I pray 🙏 they both spend the rest of their lives in jail👍
@loribaker8339 I always wondered if jodi was in love with ruby.. you make a good point! Especially with her husband going along with it - I know he knew!! I didn't watch their channel, before or after. I watched enough true crime and saw enough of the craziness there!
Is that when Jodi had moved in with Ruby and Kevin? That’s probably when all the abuse started from Ruby. She did what Jodi told her to do. That’s why the kids didn’t receive any Christmas gifts, cause Jodi had control over Ruby and her family while living with ruby’s. Why did Jodi need to live with the franke family?
Ruby was treating her children badly before connections and Jodi, not giving her young daughter food, sending her son away. Can’t blame it all on Jodi
Did it say she just met her when it happened? I think she’s been friends with her for 4 years
When she said : “this world is full of really good people”, she should have finished that with a : “and im not one of them”
Ruby is a self serving narcissist.
and a Sociopath as well..
Most definitely
Your children are not healed and will require a lifetime of intervention 😢
These monsters got off easy.
Way too easy
She could have put this in a diary
We do not need to hear her Bullcrap
I agree it was a slap on the hands justice what freaking justice those kids got
Ruby’s statement is like an Oscar’s acceptance speech!!….which is ironic considering her horrible acting. Her entire speech was an act.
Yes, and you could hear people actually clapping For her at the end of it how disgusting😮
Something is very wrong with her mind. She is a danger to society. I hope Ruby loves her new home
WAIT! So you are saying that Ruby was NOT being genuinely sorry? Golly gosh, she sure had ME convinced!🤔
I love how Ruby’s statement was mostly about her being a victim. What about your son who literally brought the neighbor man to tears because he was so visibly abused or your other children? Those are the true victims.
That's right u know how bad that little boy must haved looked to bring a grown man to tears I know he's gonna remember that one moment for the rest of his life I pray for him and his wife also
So what sentence would they have gotten if those children died in their care?? This is outrageous. What is wrong with these judges?
They have to give them life, 😢😢 ,those kids are not going to be well with all the abuse they went thrue, what is wrong with the judge, anyone could SEE that there where Evil to the childten, You donot have to be a judge to SEE the Monster of people that there are
She doesn't seem to be fully accepting of her responsibility for acts that she perpetrated upon her children. She did cause many injuries to her older children minus Jodie Hidlerbeand, she may have bought into Jodie's destructive ideas but she was already using severe abuse as a way of life to all of her children. She must serve her full sentence, recieve no income from her years on social media, she must not in any way profit from her abusive ideas & actions. These children may never be functional adults & may require many continual years of treatment bith physically & mentally. The video of her explaining that her kindergarten aged child not having a lunch was the childs fault showed a particularly evil attitude. I raised my children with care but expected them to grow into good adults. At kindergarten I would never expect a child to make their own nutritional lunch. I think she's a lot more to blame than she wants to accept.
She's not accepting at all. You can't be taken seriously when every time you 'accept responsibility' you blame somebody else.
Theye only care about themselves!!
Ruby delighted in abusing her kids long before Jodi was in her life!! She would smile when punishing them. So Disgusting!!
Ruby's job was to be a loving, caring, patient and understanding MOTHER. Instead she stands in front of the court diminishing her responsibility of the torture she put on her children. I hope these children can learn through therapy,they can trust, love and be loved and cared for without consequences. I hope they also learn, they can make mistakes like forgetting their lunches or playing tricks on each other without being punished.
💯% perfectly & sincerely put! Hopefully they do get good help! & That whoever is in charge of them isn't still under Ruby's thumb in some way shape or form!
Absolutely. When I think that my own Mother had all the good qualities you describe, never ever raised her hand or voice to us yet, through our love and respect for her, kept us in line and in good behaviour - we both did well and respectful. It makes me so very angry that woman tortured her own children.
This isn’t about you, it’s about your abuse of your little ducklings😢
Jodi looks shell shocked. Like she is stunned she is being held accountable after all these years (and years and years) of getting away with the most heinous crimes and no one standing up for her victims. She straight up cannot figure out what is going on.
It’s wonderful seeing Jodi get her comeuppance.
@@matthewbrooks1556Yes it is and I hope these children receive the intensive counseling. Their abuse and torture has done serious damage to them mentally.. 😢
You're right, it 100% sounds hollow and self-serving. Her statement never took any personal responsibility and reads as if she is a stranger who heard about the case on the street and is commenting on it. This Judge has her number!! Good for him!!
I think 60 years is what it should be
Yes, so that they can't get to destroy more lives.
She’ll be eligible for parole in 2 - 30 years.
They should get the 60 year sentence with parole.
@@paulabodine5317
No, at least 3.8 years according to a Utah lawyer.
Also, the crimes are too awful, international news, and the system will make them squirm a little.
Ruby may do 5 to 8, Jodi definitely longer, 10, maybe 12-15.
@@abelis644That's a travesty of justice especially Ruby getting that light of a sentence. Ruby deserves the maximum sentence Utah's law's allow for abusing torturing and neglecting her children.. 😢
That little speech if so filled with “I, I, I, my, my, my, me, me, me”. And truly sorry person wouldn’t do that. Let her get maximum sentencing. It’s still less than she deserves
She should never get out

She’s only sorry she got caught. Had she not been, those kids to date would still be suffering 😢
….. If not worse. She could have killed them if she was able to continue doing what she did to them.
It sounds like the youngest son had open wounds from being tied up and both he and the youngest daughter were severely malnourished.
Or dead
They would have died. Severe dehydration, malnourishment and been forced to stand in blazing sun for hours, I'm actually surprised they survived.
They’re both sadists with different manipulation styles. Max for both of these heinous monster. No brownie points for faux contrition that is nothing more than a path to escape accountability.
💯💯💯
Agree
Ruby should get double what Jody gets. The mother who tortured and allowed someone else to do it as well.
These children were on their way to the same outcome as the 15 year- old boy,from Michigan, whose mother tortured him to his horrific death. These women got off too lightly by the option of as little as 1 year times 4, if the 1-15 yr sentences are on the lighter side. It is appalling that the judge accepted pleas for 1 yr possibilities due to the fake piousness of these disgusting women. Horrified is how I feel having worked for DV shelter as a Children's Counselor, advocating for, listening to and hearing the utter helplessness, and sometimes resignation that these innocent, in every way, victims endured and courageously managed to survive from their abusive ordeals. I'm tired of children suffering at the hands of people who "LOOOVED" THEM, AS THE PERPETRATORS SEEM TO ALWAYS SAY. It made me sick to hear these abusers use that term. People don't realize the lifetime of suffering the residual effect of abuse will have on the children. Even with therapy, they will be dealing with perception of people through the lenses they have been forced to use due to the distorted reality they were dealt by their perpetrators. No more innocence of childhood as they all deserved to have without abusive beliefs that were forced upon them. Shame, shame on these "light, indecisive" sentences. Four 15- year consecutive sentences would have been more appropriate because the children's lives will be permanently altered, even with long-term therapy, which they may not have access to due to finances or availability. SHAME ON OUR SO- CALLED "FAIR" JUSTICE SYSTEM. Perhaps their physical appearance had something to do with light sentences. After all, they don't visually "appear" dangerous or villainous. Poor kids and what they went through and will continue to suffer for a very long time. SICK OF IT!!
Timothy 🥲
She's blaming the other woman?!?She's the mother!!
I was in jail with both last month and what the attorney said about ruby being remorseful is BS! I spoke in depth to both and that’s not the persona you get from both….
Do tell! I want all the details. What all has she said about this and her children?
She still thinks what she did was ok and that it wasn’t abuse. She has serious mental issues even though she denies it
@@772amanda237 well ruby loves the attention the media is providing. As this has brought a whole wave of men putting money on her books. Jodi seems to feel god has called her to help make an example out of ruby by “heavenly fathers teachings”. She feels absolutely no remorse, she said she didnt do anything wrong.
@@TheSamjane4 Oh yeah, Jodi needs serious help. Her mind is deranged and honestly its a bit scary with how much she believes she is doing gods work.
Where is the "I'm sorry children for what I did to you?"
You're right! Where is saying each child's name and telling them she loves them and that she is sorry? Thus is her only chance to do so, and age didn't.
She doesn’t realize that we are not buying what she’s selling. The only thing missing from that Narcissist abusers speech was the emphasis glee and wink at the end.
She only appologised to her friends. Jodi is worse! She tried to get the tears going but could only manage the voice.
BOTH of these monsters deserve the maximum sentence of 60 years! Anything less is a disgrace!!
Now she'll understand what her children went through. I raised 3 children on my own never did i harm humiliate i raised them with love and now they are beautiful loving adults.
As a mom, I can’t even imagine hurting my kids like that. She did not have a sudden change of heart just because she went to jail. Anyone that can treat kids the way they did, needs serious therapy and isolation. She is evil and just trying to trick the system.
They better investigate the father too..Ask the older what happened when he broke his his leg, mother and father never took him to hospital, her mom was yelling Ruby, but it was more important to go out to eat, with her husband then take her kids to hosipal..
That whole family needs to be investigated..And those kids should not be able to visit her in Prision..She might put something in there heads..
I Hope the children are getting the love and care they will need. ❤❤ I so hope that Kevin dos'nt get custody.
Healing her children, she is delusional, these children are damaged for life, for what these to monster did to these children, i don't buy her remorse, if her son hadn't escaped, they would have continued abusing those children, and the reality is the children could have died,. They are heinous monster's.
Ruby Franke is manipulating everyone to feel sorry for her. Therefore, she can get out of prison early.
Her family is helping her to plan a way out of this.
I don’t think anyone feels sorry for her. except maybe her family
I can only imagine how ruby's siblings treat their kids.
I think it would be unfair to assume that they are like her and abuse their children. This has to be painful and embarrassing for them. Even though Marjorie Taylor Greene is a relative (on YOUR FATHER’S SIDE of the family as my mom often reminds me) we don’t share her hateful, bigoted mindset or feel entitled to be cruel towards anyone we don’t understand. And we aren’t all so terminally stupid. I can’t imagine what the relatives of these two women must be dealing with because the media is so eager to get new info and a response to the sentencing.

They are both fully responsible for the abuse of the children.
Doesn’t she have a husband? He’s guilty too.
Oh yes, i believe that she's grateful for the people who arrested her. She thought that by saying all that, it would help with her sentence
She sounded like she was giving her acceptance speech at the Oscars. She even thanked the judge and his staff--like they are on her side? No way, abuser!
and she thanked her church because she doesnt want to be excommunicated...that was all that was for. this was an academy award acceptance speech which she should have spent purfusely apologising to her kids.
getting busted has that effect on people
Why is she making out she is a victim, I hope she rots in prison 😡
Do you know what’s so sad about all of this? So many parents abuse their children and don’t get caught, it’s horrific to think that there’s a child out there suffering. I wish they could all get caught, and I also wish the children had safer families to raise them, but unfortunately, things can be very scary in foster care… almost worse. At least these children have other family members to raise them. I hope their father goes to therapy and does not blame the children for running away and seeking help, that would be disgusting. We all know toxic families do this type of thing. Let’s hope he has learned a great lesson!
Why does Ruby’s speech sound like she won an Oscar?
I love how they cry while they are locked up and it's happening to them....I bet they didn't think one time while they were abusing those kids.
Narcissist speach at its fullest
I can’t wait for the inmates to get a hold of these two.
Hopefully 15yrs so the kids have a good chance at a somewhat normal life.
She told the teacher that five-year-old is supposed to make her own lunch 😂
Right that pissed me off and here’s another thing. I don’t make lunches for my kid’s anymore since they are teens but I make sure they have money in their school lunch accounts and money in their pockets. No kid should starve or watch other kids eat cause they don’t have food. 😢
" it is my preference to serve a prison sentence " ....... No Ruby its the courts preference you serve a sentence and hopefully a very,very long one!! This woman is more dangerous than we think, if something inside you as a mother or any human being doesnt tell you your ways and treatment to a living breathing being is wrong and abusive youve got something missing not just in your heart but your mind.
🎯💯👏👏👏👏
Agree, she thinks its her choice..
Why is she playing the victim?? Her abuse towards her children started way before she met Jodi!! I cannot stand this woman. She should never be let out of jail.
I just can’t believe a word coming from her, it just doesn’t feel like she really means it
Both of them need life in jail
Man, that’s a good defense attorney right there. To somehow spin this and make Ruby the victim of her FRIEND’S philosophies on parenting that she subscribed to is laughable! And to see Ruby’s downturned face while her attorney explains why she’s the victim was even more hilarious. She was playing the part, that’s all I’ll say.
I have a feeling her children are beautiful souls and I just pray they get help ASAP. This is horrible.
Hopefully the cycle of abuse stops with them.
@@kellykebo3497 Please pray for that and I will too ❤️
Most likely they will struggle with CPTSD for the rest of their lives, in effect serving a life sentence which may have disastrous effects not only on them but on people around them. These two monsters should have received life sentences as well for the recreational abuse of these kids. These were two psychopaths on a power trip together.
It would have been amazing to hear either one of them say : “I was wrong and I am sorry for:”. And then list what she did, and how she will make amends for her actions.
Instead, all we heard were more excuses for the irresponsible behavior they both chose daily, to put upon the innocent children they were blessed to be in charge of. Sad😢
Why didn’t the judge say the same thing to Ruby that he said to Jodi? She terrorized her own children. Tortured them. Parents are supposed to protect their children. Her philosophies are detached from reality, decency, and even common sense.
Because she's pretty and she spoke about God. That's all.
Ruby used Jody as an excuse for her behavior. Jody simply became an excuse to give Ruby permission to escalate her pre-existing behaviors with her children. Watch videos of 8 passengers with her kids as props and the abuse the abuse that occurred! Ruby did NOTsuddenly get well & open her eyes once away from Jody. Her mental health issues were pre-existing! Jodi only gave Ruby “permission” to escalate the abuses vs being a victim of Jodi. In her testimony she never once acknowledged the abuses to her children but only discussed her manipulation from Jodi and her parents, her defense atty & possibly the judge are falling for it!! 🧐😡😵💫🙉
Ruby is a narcissistic character at her best 👌
Both of them are.
What can you say listening to this the last 4 years tosh this was going on long before she met Hilderbrant
Her jail buddies told her that she needed to show remorse to get LESS time she told her sister Julie that in a JAILCALL , she is a LIAR she needs to face NATURAL CONSEQUENCES for what she put her babies through.
1-15? Get real.
It’s 1-15 years per count. They both have 4 counts to be served consecutively so it would have been 4-60 years however the maximum allowable sentence in Utah is 30 years so their sentence is 4-30 years.
In order to get out anytime under 30 years, they would have to go before a parole board and plead their case for early release. The earliest that can happen is at 4 years but that doesn’t guarantee they’ll be granted parole. If they are not, they continue to serve their sentence up to 30 years.
Given the severity of the abuse both women inflicted on the children, I doubt they’ll ever be granted parole and will serve the full 30 years.
4-15 years.... not 1-15
@@brian5o At Parole Hearing's the Parole Board's places a lot of importance on whether or not the prisoner expressed genuine remorse and took full responsibility for their own actions.. I doubt Ruby or Jodie will ever express genuine remorse or take full responsibility for their own individual actions.. Ruby portrays herself as a victim of Jodie..
boo hoo no feels sorry for either of you! You are quite lucky it’s only CA you are on trial for. Very easily could have been much worse
"There are two sides to every case..." I'll bite. What's the other side of treating a helpless child like an animal?
Am I wrong, or did the abuse not start before she met that other woman? So the two of them found each other and they got along splendidly because they are alike?
I've read several times that Ruby was abusive to her children BEFORE she met Jodie.. Ruby increased the severity of her abuse after meeting Jodie but they're both sadistic Sociopath's
.
Lock these people up and throw away the key. She's only remorseful because she got caught !
Jodi's body language tells a lot! She is acting like something terrible just happened to her, and she is clueless why, when the judge sad the boy who escaped probably couldn’t survive any longer she slightly shook her head and blinks like she just heard something so strange and not true. She still believes to be innocent and will sure do the same if let out. She is a danger to society.
I have absolutely no doubt that they won't even serve 5 years before being released
36:01 Jodi’s Statement
What about how she behaved before Jody
Exactly they're both sadistic Sociopath's..
The whole story is deep and diabolical. Sadistic.
Do you know why the oldest son was denied a bed to sleep in for a year?
Because he woke up his younger brother early in the morning and told him to pack his bags because they were all going to Disney World. Then when they get to the family car? He laughs at him! And says how so sad we are not going! 😢 I found this out because Ruby was video taping her oldest son regaling the tale while laughing.
He learned that behavior from his parents.
Yes, the two youngest didnt get Christmas Presents on Christmas Day.
I have zero comprehension of such corruption, let alone the physical torture.
She acknowledges her behavior, which is hopeful. But I don't understand. How could she get so twisted even before meeting Hildebrandt. She and Kevin received tons of cash exploiting their children on You Tube. Without the children's consent. Openly abusing them in front of a camera for anyone to see. Cruel, inhumane, denying food, degrading them.
This is way deeper than we know.
Hildebrandt is motivated only by sadistic control cleverly hidden under a cloak of intelligence and manipulation. The Mormon church endorsed her. When Ruby hooked up with her? All I can say is thank you God for helping that young boy to be courageous! To seek help and save himself and his sister!!
Hildebrandt, in my opinion, should not be let back into society. Furthermore, she is not safe around anyone! Even in prison! I firmly believe she ought to be in solitary confinement with access to a priest or a counselor for the rest of her life. She is 100% not repentant.
She may be in solitude in prison because the other inmates will give her the torture she gave the kids
You make an excellent point, the boy learned that sadistic behavior from his parents.
I agree, I think he was also to his mom, trying to be dominant,and that wasnt his place.
Her children will not be healed in 4 to 30 years. TRUST.
They will never fully heal, ever
Ruby wants to blame everyone else
No way he could give her much defense, but he gave what he could. He even blocked the camera when he could.
He can't express remorse and take responsibility for Jodi.. Jodi needed to express it from her own mouth but she's still indignant and unremorseful.. I'm glad her attorney wasn't able to block Jodi from the camera the entire time she was in court..
Why was she allowed to go on and on. Not one word is believable
What a horrible trauma these children went through.
Wow is she a stone cold sociopath. Completely unbelievable speech. I don’t know how the judge could even sit thru that.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻Prayers for the little victims .😢💫✨💫✨
And the older one's as well they all walked on egg shells and lived in fear ..
So these monsters can get out in 4 years but those poor kids might suffer forever for what was done to them
What a master malignant manipulator thanking law enforcement officers, medical staff, etc. and not taking full responsibility for seriously abusing her children. She fully made choices and she is the only one to blame for the abuses she inflicted onto her children, no one else!!!!
Where was the father!!??
She deserves 40 years in a harsh prison without any early release for any reason, as well as the co-defendant.
I hope the children haven't been placed in their immediate family who let them down in the most horrific ways possible.
15:24 the face of a sociopath. She cries because she got caught, not for what she did.
THEY WERE IN IT TOGETHER, she is shifting the BLAME into the other women .
Ruby should never be released.
