Yes the little girl’s wails and banging were displays of “evil and manipulation” . What kind of mother actually thinks her children are evil and tries torture for rehabilitation?
That older gentleman neighbor that called 911 deserves recognition for his role….I can’t imagine if the child had gone to a house with someone else unwilling to help….the young man was so brave and the man was exactly the one he was meant to ask for help

@@lisawagner6076 As long as they're with adults that don't treat them like Ruby and Jodi they'll probably be alright. They'll take time to heal, but they're strong. Russell especially.
I love how Franke said "The worst part is how misunderstood I am." Is she talking about the wounds on her escaping son's body? Were those misunderstood?
I think it probably was a decision and results more fraught w/ unsure feelings on his part rather than 'pure relief,' bc ppl who are abused will be convinced by their abusers that they deserve the abuse and not to be helped.
The difference is control. She was in control in the situation with her kids. Random strangers screaming and she can't block it out or off? She has no control over it.
@@777LoveStory Or perhaps it was cause. I think she's a sadist who just plain enjoys causing pain. I also think she's gutless and should never be allowed near children or the elderly. Or animals.
Abusive people will stick up for their rights but will act like you asking for the same thing (to be understood) is always seen as a completely ridiculous request (in one way or another).
Ruby was saying how awful it was for her to hear other inmates screaming and banging, yet we learned from her own journal that she wasn’t phased AT ALL by hearing her own children doing the same thing
I equally love the officer saying “that’s great, step out of the house” when she first says “I’m on the phone with my lawyer” 🤣 like no one cares about you and your lawyer right now Jodi
When I hear Russell saying “it’s personal business “ I feel so horrible. No child would say that unless they’ve been brainwashed and forced to say something like that
R was weak he had no strength 30 to one hundred years if you don’t want your children children Services would have placed them with another situation no excuse 30 years she don’t need to be around children shame on Ruby ❤
After everything he was put thru, this brave boy made sure to still be polite and respectful. He asked for a favor so gently. And still showed blind loyalty to his family by not wanting to discuss “personal business.” I’m in awe. I would love to give them both a taste of their own medicine, but they don’t even deserve my energy. We need to focus all of our healing energy towards those children. ☹️
I agree that he was incredibly polite and showed excellent manners and intelligence and bravery, but I wonder if the trauma he went thru might've informed those very qualities, rather than the opposite. Ppl who are abused will often be scared to break the rules, bc they've been so badly abused for supposedly doing so.
Ruby knows how to cry and manipulate. She did it all the time for her views. The frustrating part is, she's still going to be treated better in prison than she treated her actual children. I pray she has to get used to being "uncomfortable" in prison.
Exactly, they will get 3 meals a day, won't be made to jump into cacti, run on gravel roads barefoot and stand in the sun for hours when it is 110°. They are pure evil. She is lying during her sentencing. I firmly believe the children will never be safe with her or her husband.
Ruby is emotional vampire! She keeps her life force intact by sucking the emotions of other people and feeding on them. Especially the domination, manipulation and controlling of her children gives her the ultimate meaning of life. Her extreme hubris and narcissistic behavior was validated by her cult leader Jodi. These wannabe cult leaders with their extreme religious parenting and lifestyle was the beginning of their endeavor. The children were their experiments.
Ruby also characterised Jodi as an evil child of six or seven who deliberately pees behind the air conditioning - while likening herself literally to a baby who pees anywhere because they don’t know what is right/wrong yet.
@@kenziewenzieasmr9800 it's disgusting that she thought that the boy's festering wounds didn't need medical attention, let alone the children being emaciated to such a dangerous degree. They were incontinent at that point and Ruby blamed that on the kids being evil. 😡
The DA claims that Ruby Franke expressed remorse. I see no evidence of that in any of phone calls. She expressed remorse because jail wore her down. She couldn’t endure it. Her kids endured much worse. They’re stronger than she is. They endured 8 years of abuse. She should endure more than four.
@@Inspiredlife808Our justice system guarantees defense attorneys so that we can assure that convictions are rigorously tested. Do not denigrate our system of checks and balances.
Kevin Franke should be there too... his 12 year old emaciated son is more of a man than he is.. he saved himself and his little sister.... what a sad excuse of a father...
Jodi asked the fathers to separate and have no contact with the kids or wives for therapy to reunite with them later on. He had no clue what truly went on at the house.
He knew for sure. He was 100% involved. Ruby and Kevin denied their kids food regularly. It’s all on the internet. Clear. Also, I beleive the case is so simple: Kevin was “separated” as a hoax to make it look that way for an Alabi. He knew Jodi and Ruby were going to get property in Arizona and murder those 2 kids. So they needed an outsider to look out (Kevin) the first step would be to go to Jodi’s and start the severe abuse. But that luckily has ended! It is so clear to me. And Utah law makers are disgusting. Do they abuse kids in Utah? Max sentence in Utah for child abuse is 30 years??? wtf.
@@AmandaMollyread my comment and wake up. He knew! Ruby and Kevin regularly abused their kids on their 8 passengers videos! Denied them food and beds etc. he knew. Jodi separated them for Kevin to be the “lookout” Ruby and Jodi wanted Arizona property to murder those 2 kids! The first step was seeing what they could get away with at Jodi’s and luckily that was stopped by the kid who escaped!!!!!!! You’ve got to be kidding me. What grown man doesn’t demand court and take matters into his own hands w the law and not try a single time to see his kids?????? You’re sick!
It's true! There was abuse when it came to all of those kids! I think the oldest slept without a bed for a long time because of a brotherly prank on his sibling. @@veganmermaidyogi3299
Jodie says the worst is that she is COMPLETELY misunderstood. What is there to misunderstand about rope burns, cuffs and untreated open wounds, rubbed with cayenne pepper!
Her diary is plainly worded about the deprivation of food and water on a regular basis. No mention of depriving games, like any other normal parent. Misunderstood, is a bunch of lies. Read her diary in her own handwriting and you get an accurate measure of this torturer.
@@elainemunro4621 Pity that torture is outlawed in prisons today - or they could maybe practise some of the Franke-Hildebrandt techniques on those two women.
One correction: Jodi is NOT a psychologist. She has said that she is but in reality she's far from it. Jodi does not have the academic degrees, clinical work or licensure to be a psychologist. I believe she practised in Utah as a mental health counselor. She has a history of making herself sound more accomplished than she really is.
She said on the phone 📞 the worst thing is that she is misunderstood, but what was done to her Children, that is not so bad. I don't have the words to describe these two women 🤮🤮🤮🤮
She will also have the chance to finish college. And, if she finds a way to, she will still exert sociopathic charm and control over as many as possible. L.
@@96JazangelI was just about to say this! All those mothers in prison who haven’t seen or been able to hold their children in years are going to lose their minds on these women if they knew the truth.
That's really not true, most prisoners aren't going to risk getting more time on their own sentences and child offenders are often kept away from the general population anyway.
@@moe6313 You don't know what you're talking about. Inmates serving life don't give two shits about getting more time. They also aren't "kept away". They HIDE in solitary! Solitary will break you eventually and when those two ladies enter general pop they better enjoy the taste of salmon because they will be eating a lot of it... especially Ruby.
@@moe6313not every prisoner has potential for release, and not every prisoner possesses the level of reason and impulse control required to choose freedom over revenge… I’m sure many do, but we aren’t talking about the general population here. We’re talking about the worst of humanity, who’ve already demonstrated questionable life management skills. You give these losers a lot more credit than they deserve.
So the kids had no protection against these women and the torture they received in Jodys prison house, it's not fair these women will be protected in this prison. Let them experience what they inflicted onto those innocent kids.
Don't worry. They may BE protected, but they won't FEEL protected. 24/7 women will be screaming threats at them and telling them what they want to do to them. Women will be banging on their cell doors and screaming threats whenever they are cuffed for shower.
Her speech to the judge was self serving! She was upset that she got caught and was looking for sympathy from the judge. Prison will be an eye opener for her!
Exactly. I won't let my kids watch them either. So many of my kids friends love Ryan and all these kid bloggers and it's just so sad... I've been against it since the Daddy o 5 incident. And THAT, just like this, was right in everyone's faces. I've got a feeling that a lot of these views are just little kids, watching these things like it's normal. My kids get MAYBE an hour of RUclips a day and I sit with them and make sure they only watch certain channels and videos for these reasons. You just never know.. Not to mention how so many kids are walking around with the same attitudes that these parents and kids have nowadays, thinking having mansions and personal bounce houses and giant pools and everything is just normal.
Even if the parents aren’t abusive, family flogging inexcusably exploits children, in my opinion. It’s similar to forcing children to be child actors, and often scars them for life. It also invades their privacy and makes a permanent public record of them as children.
Its not only that. Daily family vlogging is, at its core, ethically and morally wrong to do to children. It needs to be regarded as child exploitation worldwide and RUclips needs to demonitize channels that overexposed children to the public.
I was shocked by the amount of time they got considering what the mother did to her kids and that she allowed another woman to abuse them in the harshest way. For the mother to cry about the sounds in prison and how she is misunderstood?? Did I hear that correct? Seriously, this tells me that she does NOT understand the abuse and crimes she committed against her children. Wow.
She's getting exactly what she did to her kids, no privacy, no technology, no doors, no autonomy, no friends, and no freedom. Karma really came for them and it was about time. I hope Kevin also gets charged becuase he is just as complicit.
Yes. For some reason Ruby seems to me to be even worse. More calculating, more aware of societal norms, and just unable to hide her glee and satisfaction at the children’s suffering. She likes to play with her victims and headf*** people. Jodi seems more “genuinely deluded”, if that makes sense. Somehow less aware of her own appetites (her greed and her need to dominate & control others). She seems much less guarded, less crafty, more self-deluded. As daft as that sounds.
That little boy is so strong and such a hero. His persistence saved him and his sister... and I believe his other siblings as well. Bringing this to light is extremely brave, going against his mother was extremely brave. My heart aches for ALL of those children. I have a 13 year old and it makes me sick to think of him having growing pains, much less being abused to such a disgusting degree. Ruby and Jodi should be under the jail, and that's just the start.
What she did is disgusting, but I've done work in the prison system where inmates served 6-10 years when the child victims didn't survive the battle. It's all so tragic
Yeah her true sentence is down to a board of people, I have no doubt she'll only serve 4 because I think that it's all anonymous and Utah is still a highly religious state
The photos of the children on the 20/20 special were horrific. I have no doubt had R not escaped those children wouldn't have survived much longer. These women need to to serve every year they were given. I realized after watching the 20/20 episode that R initially asked to be taken to the police station not to report Jodi and Ruby but because they had essentially told him that he was so evil that he would go to jail after the abuse. Imagine how awful it must have been for that child to believe that he was going to jail and to choose that over living with these witches.
And when he changed his mind and only asked for that “favor”, giving up the second “favor”. I wonder if that was either to help his sister, which he realised he would need the cops for anyway - or if the second thing was - he was willing to not ask for water / food, if they would only take him to the cops.
Even Jessi Hildebrandt (Jodi's niece, who uses they/them pronouns) said in one interview that they begged the police to have them arrested because they were desperate to get away from Jodi. Hearing Jessi's story was so sad as well. I can't imagine what they went through at the hands of their aunt.
Thank you to the neighbors. I always hear reference to the gentleman’s call, but has anyone mentioned how the woman who knelt down in front of R did it as a caring mother would. Ruby had no caring spirit for her children. Praying for the children to find loving and caring arms!🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
@@ticketyblue3080 Yes, I’ve been saying that for months. Ruby didn’t want 6 kids. But her religion brainwashed her into becoming a mother of multiple children. Sad. The resentment is so obvious. I think she admitted to not wanting the 5th or 6th child but her husband wanted more kids.
i wonder what happens to child abusers in prison. imagine finding out your cell mate is in for torturing her kids. i hope they won’t give her a single second of peace in there
I hope they are placed with cell mates who were abused in childhood. Those emotional wounds never heal. Time for some prison justice. The court sentence will not be long or harsh enough for justice to truly be served.
Unfortunately, a lot of people who were “throwaway” kids gravitate to exactly these kinds of manipulators as adults. Or rather, their psychological wounds and continuing vulnerability attracts the kind of people who have a sharpened sense for it - since they like to crate it.
From her jail house phone calls, it seems like she took this sooo lightly. Assuming she’ll be let out on house arrest and describing the whole thing as being “exaggerated”. Her husband on the phone sounded like he was more committed to Ruby than the wellbeing of the kids. Spineless… he should not get these kids either!
@@Justice55339h you should listen to the jailhouse phone calls and the police questioning video. He had no questions or regard for the kids. Only for Ruby to know he stood by her. Also when they were together plenty of viewers called child protective services on them since he was part of the abusive tactics. It’s all recorded on RUclips. No excuse. Children don’t ask to be born. Parents have a duty to protect them. Not seeing your children for months to a year is completely unacceptable and negligence at the least.
They told the kids that they are "never" going home. If R would not have gotten out, and they would have completed the move to a more secluded location, I doubt they would have survived. Hearing what is written in the journals sent chills through me. Praying that they get the help needed.
And his other sister was occasionally brought to the home as well, which is why the little boy thought that they were two more kids in the house. so I’m wondering if some of the blacked out stuff is about the other child, and that more charges will be brought on. Because if she was brought to the torture house, she definitely had things done to her too. I’m wondering if she was also going to be moved to the Arizona house with R & E.
i highly doubt a 3rd child was abused as much...the two middle girls are already 15 and 17 years old and can't be pushed around mentally or physically as easily as the 10 and 12 year old kids@@laurawhite9822
The interview with the public defender was very informative. I appreciated the insight into some of the ins and outs of prison life, and I took pleasure in the fact that Ruby and Jodi will be living SO FAR out of their comfort zones. All those restrictions....gee, kinda like the restrictions they imposed on those poor kids. Minus the actual torture. Maybe there will be some "prison justice" imposed by the inmates.🤔
That's wild to me they're only getting 15 years, not just because of the nature of the crimes but I think they found journals saying they wanted to kill a couple of the kids? Thankfully if they serve their full sentence both women will be infertile and all the kids will be nearly adults, so there's that at least.
She sounded very condescending when she said “Having kids is so much fun😢😢😢 “ entire time she was starving, psychologically and emotionally and physically abusing her younger children!😢
I hope those children show up to every single parole hearing Ruby and Jodie ever have. I hope the preceedings are broadcast. And I hope I get to watch!
What’s upsetting is that this mother inflicted physical and emotional pain on her children and ignored their screams, pleas to be loved and cared for as they deserved.
The neighbor said something interesting. When he was on the phone with the dispatch, he said, ‘and we know there have been problems at this neighbors house’. It makes me wonder ‘what’ kind of problems🤔
@@palace927... And that makes me wonder if CPS personnel deliberately avoided checking up, if they were MORMONS themselves !! That wouldn't surprise me in the least !!
@@palace927 The neighbors from Ruby’s home in Springville, UT, well as Ruby’s oldest daughter, Shari, had been calling CPS. As far as I know, no one had called from Jodi’s neighborhood in Ivins, UT. Maybe they did, I just haven’t read or seen any reports about it.
"I beat you because I love you. Mama duck? My 6 little chicks." So absolutely sickening. Their sentences were too arbitrary and way too lenient. Disgusting excuses for mothers and women! And that father? Who does what he did? Staying away from his children like that? I absolutely believe he knew what his wife was all about and he left those poor kids alone with her. That young boy who went for help is a hero. And just think of how brave he had to be to do that.
She didn't look like she was having fun at all. Was it supposed to be an obvious joke? Because it looked to me like she was trying to fake it and failed.
Poor Ruby . . . she's so "misunderstood". Kinda, sorta like what her kids might have felt while being mentally, emotionally, and physically abused by Ruby and her toady friend.
Ruby saying she is "so misunderstood" mwkes me feek sick. How does she think her kids felt been punished for nothing. I hooe the two youngest kids get to escspe this crazy family and find a safe home
the worst thing i heard about this case was that when police had interviewed the kids after being rescued, it was concluded that the children actually believed on some level they DESERVED what was being done to them. it was psychological torture and emotional abuse just as much, and THAT will stick with these poor kids much longer than the physical scars. There is not enough words in any language in the world to describe how evil this woman is.
Same here. Delusional hag tried saying she's just misunderstood in prison that's the real issue for her...smh like what??? I hope they use that recording to deny parole
I hope, for their sake and not hers, they're able to eventually forgive her. I would hate for them to fall prey to an enduring hatred, which would just be an extension of the abuse they've suffered.
@@jeongyeoniee__ - That would depend on the conditions of her parole. Hopefully, they'll only allow contact with her children if the child initiates it.

That bit made my skin crawl. No one misunderstands the results of her actions and there is not a single excuse for them.
The only ones that misunderstand are her and Jodi.
When she gets out of prison she'll write a book "How I Was Martyred for Christ."
😢 They spread Honey & Cayenne pepper on their wounds - those poor kids.
The pure relief that boy must have felt when he finally got help.
He was so polite and well spoken. Strong young boy.
That young man was so brave to run. He saved his sister's life.
I think it probably was a decision and results more fraught w/ unsure feelings on his part rather than 'pure relief,' bc ppl who are abused will be convinced by their abusers that they deserve the abuse and not to be helped.
That neighbor deserves recognition.
It's torture and upsetting for her to hear strangers screaming, but it didn't bother her when it was her own children. Poor Ruby!
The difference is control. She was in control in the situation with her kids. Random strangers screaming and she can't block it out or off? She has no control over it.
@@777LoveStory Or perhaps it was cause. I think she's a sadist who just plain enjoys causing pain. I also think she's gutless and should never be allowed near children or the elderly. Or animals.
The most upsetting thing for her is that she's "misunderstood" yet she thought her kids were evil.
Abusive people will stick up for their rights but will act like you asking for the same thing (to be understood) is always seen as a completely ridiculous request (in one way or another).
Same as what Lori Daybell said to family, from within prison
She is evil 😈
to the point where she had to document it in her diary!
That’s how psychopaths justify their evil deeds. Wasn’t Ted Bundy misunderstood also?
Ruby was saying how awful it was for her to hear other inmates screaming and banging, yet we learned from her own journal that she wasn’t phased AT ALL by hearing her own children doing the same thing
Nice copy and paste from mamasmurf7830's comment.
Who else loves the 'WHOA, WHOAH, WOAH, WHOAH! Of Jodi, yanked out of her house!!!!
I equally love the officer saying “that’s great, step out of the house” when she first says “I’m on the phone with my lawyer” 🤣 like no one cares about you and your lawyer right now Jodi
Totally gratifying!
@@corneliusdinkmeyer2190Agreed. 😂
And she cries out about the handcuffs, her shoulders…whatever beech, feel it hard.
That officer who said "thats great step out" is my favourite. Jodi crapped her pants when she was yeeted out that house xb
Ruby has dead eyes. Absolutely no emotion or feeling behind them. She’s only sorry she was caught.
Dead eyes like a shark.
"You guys, having kids is so much fun "- with a fakeass smile. Sick woman.
That's the modern woman on social media.
@@mikejohnson9960beta male alert 📢
Jim Ross: DOES SHE HAVE NO CONSCIENCE? DO U HAVE NO HEART? DO U HAVE NO SOUL?!
The boy was so educated and nice...." Just this one is fine " broke me ..... probably he would ask for water or food 😢😢
When I hear Russell saying “it’s personal business “ I feel so horrible. No child would say that unless they’ve been brainwashed and forced to say something like that
When you hear that older gentleman break down in the 911 phone call, you KNOW it must be BAD !!
I heard the entire 911 call he made. He had trouble explaining to the dispatcher how weak and sick the kid looked.
The way R walked to the chair to sit down broke my heart. Looked like his little legs were gonna buckle
R was weak he had no strength 30 to one hundred years if you don’t want your children children Services would have placed them with another situation no excuse 30 years she don’t need to be around children shame on Ruby ❤
A big reason he broke was also his wife’s tone of voice, when they realised he was an abused child who was severely scared to open up.
Shocking how both of these women are smiling while talking to their lawyers!? You would think, especially Ruby, would be devastated!
After everything he was put thru, this brave boy made sure to still be polite and respectful. He asked for a favor so gently. And still showed blind loyalty to his family by not wanting to discuss “personal business.” I’m in awe. I would love to give them both a taste of their own medicine, but they don’t even deserve my energy. We need to focus all of our healing energy towards those children. ☹️
I agree that he was incredibly polite and showed excellent manners and intelligence and bravery, but I wonder if the trauma he went thru might've informed those very qualities, rather than the opposite. Ppl who are abused will often be scared to break the rules, bc they've been so badly abused for supposedly doing so.
I think her husband sued her
Ruby knows how to cry and manipulate. She did it all the time for her views. The frustrating part is, she's still going to be treated better in prison than she treated her actual children. I pray she has to get used to being "uncomfortable" in prison.
Exactly, they will get 3 meals a day, won't be made to jump into cacti, run on gravel roads barefoot and stand in the sun for hours when it is 110°. They are pure evil. She is lying during her sentencing. I firmly believe the children will never be safe with her or her husband.
Yes she sure does. Funny how she keeps saying how manipulative E is in her journals but she’s exactly the same way.
She was projecting.
Ruby is emotional vampire! She keeps her life force intact by sucking the emotions of other people and feeding on them. Especially the domination, manipulation and controlling of her children gives her the ultimate meaning of life. Her extreme hubris and narcissistic behavior was validated by her cult leader Jodi. These wannabe cult leaders with their extreme religious parenting and lifestyle was the beginning of their endeavor. The children were their experiments.
Ruby: “I would do anything for my babies”
Her kids: “Please give me a sip of water, I’m dehydrated”
Ruby: “No 😙”
What a liar. “The momma duck who was leading her ducklings to safety” 😤😤😤
That made me want to 🤮when I heard her say that.
🤮
Ruby also characterised Jodi as an evil child of six or seven who deliberately pees behind the air conditioning - while likening herself literally to a baby who pees anywhere because they don’t know what is right/wrong yet.
Made my skin crawl.😢
This woman damaged momma duck's reputation. Another defamation case.
Hearing her jail calls saying this is all being blown out of proportion is CRAZY. No sympathy expressed for her children AT ALL
Well, selfish people never welcome the competition. She is just so smart. Better cons are going to love playing her.
The fact she said they didn’t need a hospital is wild 🙃 like did you forget what they looked like Ruby? They absolutely needed medical attention

@@kenziewenzieasmr9800 it's disgusting that she thought that the boy's festering wounds didn't need medical attention, let alone the children being emaciated to such a dangerous degree. They were incontinent at that point and Ruby blamed that on the kids being evil. 😡
I pray these siblings heal and are happy and healthy the rest of their lives. Blessings
The DA claims that Ruby Franke expressed remorse. I see no evidence of that in any of phone calls. She expressed remorse because jail wore her down. She couldn’t endure it. Her kids endured much worse. They’re stronger than she is. They endured 8 years of abuse. She should endure more than four.
The DA should be in there with her. His job was to advocate for kids. Being eligible for parole in 4 years isn't justice. Should have been 15 minimum.
Her attorney should go to jail with her.
@@Inspiredlife808relax lady
That's not what remorse means.
@@Inspiredlife808Our justice system guarantees defense attorneys so that we can assure that convictions are rigorously tested.

Kevin Franke should be there too... his 12 year old emaciated son is more of a man than he is.. he saved himself and his little sister.... what a sad excuse of a father...
Damn right
Jodi asked the fathers to separate and have no contact with the kids or wives for therapy to reunite with them later on. He had no clue what truly went on at the house.
He knew for sure. He was 100% involved. Ruby and Kevin denied their kids food regularly. It’s all on the internet. Clear. Also, I beleive the case is so simple: Kevin was “separated” as a hoax to make it look that way for an Alabi. He knew Jodi and Ruby were going to get property in Arizona and murder those 2 kids. So they needed an outsider to look out (Kevin) the first step would be to go to Jodi’s and start the severe abuse. But that luckily has ended! It is so clear to me. And Utah law makers are disgusting. Do they abuse kids in Utah? Max sentence in Utah for child abuse is 30 years??? wtf.
@@AmandaMollyread my comment and wake up. He knew! Ruby and Kevin regularly abused their kids on their 8 passengers videos! Denied them food and beds etc. he knew. Jodi separated them for Kevin to be the “lookout” Ruby and Jodi wanted Arizona property to murder those 2 kids! The first step was seeing what they could get away with at Jodi’s and luckily that was stopped by the kid who escaped!!!!!!! You’ve got to be kidding me. What grown man doesn’t demand court and take matters into his own hands w the law and not try a single time to see his kids?????? You’re sick!
It's true! There was abuse when it came to all of those kids! I think the oldest slept without a bed for a long time because of a brotherly prank on his sibling. @@veganmermaidyogi3299
Jody: "don't worry we'll get our day in court"
Oh damn right you will! Enjoy your years in jail monsters!
So now the kids go to the dad? The same guy who said he was too uncomfortable to disclose to the police how he disciplined his kids when he had them ?
So far, they are still in foster care. I hope he never gets them as he is guilty of neglect if nothing else
I hope he never gets custody of the kids! He is pathetic and just as guilty.
We need to file a petition. Seriously. He doesn't deserve the kids. He didn't check on them for a year. He was partying and watching ESPN.
We all know he will abuse them too following in the footsteps of his wife if he gets the authority to take care of them…
These kids sweet kind parents
Dads to weak to be counted on to protect those children.
Jodie says the worst is that she is COMPLETELY misunderstood. What is there to misunderstand about rope burns, cuffs and untreated open wounds, rubbed with cayenne pepper!
The starvation wasn't misunderstood by any first responders
That was Ruby that said that.
Her diary is plainly worded about the deprivation of food and water on a regular basis. No mention of depriving games, like any other normal parent. Misunderstood, is a bunch of lies. Read her diary in her own handwriting and you get an accurate measure of this torturer.
@@elainemunro4621 Pity that torture is outlawed in prisons today - or they could maybe practise some of the Franke-Hildebrandt techniques on those two women.
And starvation & poking with cactus spines.
The real heroes , are those wonderful neighbors! Thank you to the wonderful couple that saved the children!
One correction: Jodi is NOT a psychologist. She has said that she is but in reality she's far from it. Jodi does not have the academic degrees, clinical work or licensure to be a psychologist. I believe she practised in Utah as a mental health counselor. She has a history of making herself sound more accomplished than she really is.
Embellishing her credentials, in true narcissistic fashion.
Yup... typical feminist mindset...
I wondered how someone who got a degree in psychology could behave the way that she did. This makes sense.
How did she afford that 5 million dollar home? Probably offed her husband
She's basically a life coach. Jeez
every day they are in prison is a day the children have freedom
and a safe place to heal🌻
Amen!
They both messed up royal 😕 😮
My hope is the kids get to be adults before ruby gets out.
Wait do you think she has a chance of getting custody again?
She said on the phone 📞 the worst thing is that she is misunderstood, but what was done to her Children, that is not so bad. I don't have the words to describe these two women 🤮🤮🤮🤮
She will still be better treated in prison than how she treated her own kids.
Fed, warm, bed to sleep in, no torture, paradise compared to the children.
She will also have the chance to finish college. And, if she finds a way to, she will still exert sociopathic charm and control over as many as possible. L.
Fair point
Not if the prisoners find out why she’s there…
@@96JazangelI was just about to say this! All those mothers in prison who haven’t seen or been able to hold their children in years are going to lose their minds on these women if they knew the truth.
Anyone going to prison will have trouble. Even the worst inmates don’t tolerate child crimes.
They will be ruthless by stealing her shampoo.
That's really not true, most prisoners aren't going to risk getting more time on their own sentences and child offenders are often kept away from the general population anyway.
Women don't do that in prison. They will hate them more because they have money.
@@moe6313 You don't know what you're talking about. Inmates serving life don't give two shits about getting more time. They also aren't "kept away". They HIDE in solitary!
Solitary will break you eventually and when those two ladies enter general pop they better enjoy the taste of salmon because they will be eating a lot of it... especially Ruby.
@@moe6313not every prisoner has potential for release, and not every prisoner possesses the level of reason and impulse control required to choose freedom over revenge… I’m sure many do, but we aren’t talking about the general population here. We’re talking about the worst of humanity, who’ve already demonstrated questionable life management skills. You give these losers a lot more credit than they deserve.
Ruby's plea for leniency: "Me me me, me me me me, I was me, and more me, poor me, pity me, me, me, me."
So the kids had no protection against these women and the torture they received in Jodys prison house, it's not fair these women will be protected in this prison. Let them experience what they inflicted onto those innocent kids.
Then tell them their in distortion when they complain.
Agreed!!
I was thinking the same thing.
Don't worry. They may BE protected, but they won't FEEL protected. 24/7 women will be screaming threats at them and telling them what they want to do to them. Women will be banging on their cell doors and screaming threats whenever they are cuffed for shower.
Yeah, right? At least they stand a better chance than the poor, malnourished, little kids.
How absolutely sad he thinks asking for help is a "favor"
That means he’s been told that people won’t care about him or his problems
🥺🙏🏽
😢that precious little boy………..😢
Her speech to the judge was self serving! She was upset that she got caught and was looking for sympathy from the judge. Prison will be an eye opener for her!
This is why I don’t support family bloggers. We never know what is truly happening behind closed doors 🚪
She had 2 MILLION Subscribers, how, it's crazy?
Exactly they are all fake. I never watch them
Exactly. I won't let my kids watch them either. So many of my kids friends love Ryan and all these kid bloggers and it's just so sad... I've been against it since the Daddy o 5 incident. And THAT, just like this, was right in everyone's faces.
I've got a feeling that a lot of these views are just little kids, watching these things like it's normal. My kids get MAYBE an hour of RUclips a day and I sit with them and make sure they only watch certain channels and videos for these reasons. You just never know..
Not to mention how so many kids are walking around with the same attitudes that these parents and kids have nowadays, thinking having mansions and personal bounce houses and giant pools and everything is just normal.
Even if the parents aren’t abusive, family flogging inexcusably exploits children, in my opinion. It’s similar to forcing children to be child actors, and often scars them for life. It also invades their privacy and makes a permanent public record of them as children.
Its not only that. Daily family vlogging is, at its core, ethically and morally wrong to do to children. It needs to be regarded as child exploitation worldwide and RUclips needs to demonitize channels that overexposed children to the public.
I was shocked by the amount of time they got considering what the mother did to her kids and that she allowed another woman to abuse them in the harshest way. For the mother to cry about the sounds in prison and how she is misunderstood?? Did I hear that correct? Seriously, this tells me that she does NOT understand the abuse and crimes she committed against her children. Wow.
When you think that the little boy was hours away from being too weak to escape, perhaps a day away from sepsis, gangrene or kidney breakdown.
Sickened me when she said she’s misunderstood. Hiding behind her religion.
@@lifeisgood7740 exactly!
@@eh1702 breaks my heart

What did the man mean when he told 911 that they knew that there had been problems at this neighbor’s house? Has anyone ever explained that statement?
She's getting exactly what she did to her kids, no privacy, no technology, no doors, no autonomy, no friends, and no freedom.
Karma really came for them and it was about time. I hope Kevin also gets charged becuase he is just as complicit.
No peace and no empathy

@@nessarolla she’s getting fed 3 meals a day though.
Both of them have terrifying eyes in different ways, one has red hot rage and one cold
Yes. For some reason Ruby seems to me to be even worse. More calculating, more aware of societal norms, and just unable to hide her glee and satisfaction at the children’s suffering. She likes to play with her victims and headf*** people.
Jodi seems more “genuinely deluded”, if that makes sense. Somehow less aware of her own appetites (her greed and her need to dominate & control others). She seems much less guarded, less crafty, more self-deluded. As daft as that sounds.
Very well said...I totally agree.
I think that too-devoid of empathy at the very least. Disturbing…
Jodi is scary.
That she isolated the children and R hadn't seen E in something like 10 months. Jodi isolated them.
"is it possible their physical safety is at risk?”
“it is posible. I would hope so.”
There should have been a full stop lol
That little boy is so strong and such a hero. His persistence saved him and his sister... and I believe his other siblings as well. Bringing this to light is extremely brave, going against his mother was extremely brave. My heart aches for ALL of those children. I have a 13 year old and it makes me sick to think of him having growing pains, much less being abused to such a disgusting degree. Ruby and Jodi should be under the jail, and that's just the start.
A 12 year old boy needs so much more nourishment during this growth spurt time. L.
From Eight Passengers to Two Prisoners.

😂😂😂😂
What she did is disgusting, but I've done work in the prison system where inmates served 6-10 years when the child victims didn't survive the battle. It's all so tragic
Those who work for child services should be locked up with them for failing these children
I agree

My favorite moment is when they drag Jodi out of her house. Everything else is just heartbreaking and sickening.
That was a VERY light sentence for both those abusers. Shame on the judge
He sentenced them to the maximum sentence available to him. The Utah sentencing has an unusual sentencing structure.
Yeah her true sentence is down to a board of people, I have no doubt she'll only serve 4 because I think that it's all anonymous and Utah is still a highly religious state
@@TheDoctorDaveyYes, and apparently the judge wrote a recommendation for the board to give her the minimum sentence. Shame on him.
The judge did what he could do according to law. It will be up to the parole board to keep these women behind bars forever!!!
The photos of the children on the 20/20 special were horrific. I have no doubt had R not escaped those children wouldn't have survived much longer. These women need to to serve every year they were given.
I realized after watching the 20/20 episode that R initially asked to be taken to the police station not to report Jodi and Ruby but because they had essentially told him that he was so evil that he would go to jail after the abuse. Imagine how awful it must have been for that child to believe that he was going to jail and to choose that over living with these witches.
And when he changed his mind and only asked for that “favor”, giving up the second “favor”. I wonder if that was either to help his sister, which he realised he would need the cops for anyway - or if the second thing was - he was willing to not ask for water / food, if they would only take him to the cops.
So sad
Do you have a link for the 20/20 special?
Even Jessi Hildebrandt (Jodi's niece, who uses they/them pronouns) said in one interview that they begged the police to have them arrested because they were desperate to get away from Jodi. Hearing Jessi's story was so sad as well. I can't imagine what they went through at the hands of their aunt.
@phillipsmom6252 I watched it on my directtv replay, but ABCs website has full episodes usually of news or ABC RUclips has clips
Thank you to the neighbors. I always hear reference to the gentleman’s call, but has anyone mentioned how the woman who knelt down in front of R did it as a caring mother would. Ruby had no caring spirit for her children. Praying for the children to find loving and caring arms!🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
Thanks to both of them. Nobody knew about the lady until the video came out. I'm so glad they were home and took care of the little boy.
Yes, she was very loving and empathetic. Thank goodness for these two neighbors. And of course for R’s bravery to search them out.
It’s like Ruby resented her kids. Didn’t want them and took out the anger on them. Evil.
@@ticketyblue3080 Yes, I’ve been saying that for months. Ruby didn’t want 6 kids. But her religion brainwashed her into becoming a mother of multiple children. Sad. The resentment is so obvious. I think she admitted to not wanting the 5th or 6th child but her husband wanted more kids.

I hope they are placed with cell mates who were abused in childhood. Those emotional wounds never heal.
Time for some prison justice. The court sentence will not be long or harsh enough for justice to truly be served.
Unfortunately, a lot of people who were “throwaway” kids gravitate to exactly these kinds of manipulators as adults. Or rather, their psychological wounds and continuing vulnerability attracts the kind of people who have a sharpened sense for it - since they like to crate it.

From her jail house phone calls, it seems like she took this sooo lightly. Assuming she’ll be let out on house arrest and describing the whole thing as being “exaggerated”. Her husband on the phone sounded like he was more committed to Ruby than the wellbeing of the kids. Spineless… he should not get these kids either!
Yes. His attitude was shameful!
Sure was!!
Agreed. The husband is just angling for appearances, favor and access to $$. He doesn't care at all about the children.
He didn't know what to believe yet. He obviously trusted her and hadn't seen the kids or photos yet
@@Justice55339h you should listen to the jailhouse phone calls and the police questioning video. He had no questions or regard for the kids. Only for Ruby to know he stood by her. Also when they were together plenty of viewers called child protective services on them since he was part of the abusive tactics. It’s all recorded on RUclips. No excuse. Children don’t ask to be born. Parents have a duty to protect them. Not seeing your children for months to a year is completely unacceptable and negligence at the least.
They told the kids that they are "never" going home. If R would not have gotten out, and they would have completed the move to a more secluded location, I doubt they would have survived. Hearing what is written in the journals sent chills through me. Praying that they get the help needed.
Yup. Would have been a JJ and Tylee situation
And his other sister was occasionally brought to the home as well, which is why the little boy thought that they were two more kids in the house. so I’m wondering if some of the blacked out stuff is about the other child, and that more charges will be brought on. Because if she was brought to the torture house, she definitely had things done to her too. I’m wondering if she was also going to be moved to the Arizona house with R & E.
i highly doubt a 3rd child was abused as much...the two middle girls are already 15 and 17 years old and can't be pushed around mentally or physically as easily as the 10 and 12 year old kids@@laurawhite9822
Yes,the journal clearly says they were going to kill them.They said they were going to get rid of them.
The interview with the public defender was very informative. I appreciated the insight into some of the ins and outs of prison life, and I took pleasure in the fact that Ruby and Jodi will be living SO FAR out of their comfort zones.
All those restrictions....gee, kinda like the restrictions they imposed on those poor kids. Minus the actual torture.
Maybe there will be some "prison justice" imposed by the inmates.🤔
Religious reading materials are the LAST thing these two need in prison!
That is what I was thinking! That is what started this whole shitshow!
Sounds like they’d just create their own 🙄
No Book of Mormon.
The need the Bible (Isaiah 53). Not the Book of Mormon
Exactly. Their religious BS is just a ruse. All part of the act. Like with so many others.
15 years is pathetic for what they haved done
It should have been 15 years for each count, served consecutively imo.
They should never be able to see the light of day again.
That's wild to me they're only getting 15 years, not just because of the nature of the crimes but I think they found journals saying they wanted to kill a couple of the kids? Thankfully if they serve their full sentence both women will be infertile and all the kids will be nearly adults, so there's that at least.
It’s because the state of Utah allows these things to happen. Utah hates that one of their own got caught. You think she is the only one?
Should be life without parole
@@sageo7618journal implied that, not clear

Neighbor said to dispatch that they know that there has been problems at Jodi's house before, I want to know what those were!
He had probably seen their RUclips channel.

Lock her and Jodie up and throw away the key
How about Jodi's big face looking up at the judge from below? 🤬
What’s upsetting is that this mother inflicted physical and emotional pain on her children and ignored their screams, pleas to be loved and cared for as they deserved.

Hope she gets the message: you can’t beat, torment & torture your precious children.
She's not getting the message anytime soon FOR SURE!
the worst thing i heard about this case was that when police had interviewed the kids after being rescued, it was concluded that the children actually believed on some level they DESERVED what was being done to them. it was psychological torture and emotional abuse just as much, and THAT will stick with these poor kids much longer than the physical scars. There is not enough words in any language in the world to describe how evil this woman is.
I hope her kids never speak to her again.
Same here. Delusional hag tried saying she's just misunderstood in prison that's the real issue for her...smh like what??? I hope they use that recording to deny parole
I hope, for their sake and not hers, they're able to eventually forgive her. I would hate for them to fall prey to an enduring hatred, which would just be an extension of the abuse they've suffered.
I don't think she'd be allowed to communicate with them ever again because of the crimes she committed
@@jeongyeoniee__ - That would depend on the conditions of her parole. Hopefully, they'll only allow contact with her children if the child initiates it.
They better get their 30 years. Which isn't even enough time
How about an update on how the kids are all doing and whether they are with family and all still together
They both deserve to rot in prison!
I need 10 minutes with these two🤬
Give me 5 minutes!
I was about to say give me five but fk it I’ll take 2.5😂
Their nit worth it, guys....
Pretty sure there would be a queue but like Kylea said they aren't worth it.
Sure use would lol
