Chad is the only teen I’ve ever hear that liked more the wilderness therapy than their own house. Kids die in those places, they see terrible things, still was great for Chad. That gives an idea of how stressful their lives were.
Yes those "troubled teen" camps are just evil, so much to detail about them that Im sure you already know. I was shocked and just so saddened to hear that was a BREAK for him, how shattering
He loved it there because he had food to eat and actually put some weight on while he was there. What a damning indictment for the 'care' and 'nurturing' he received from his so-called parents.
@sodapop83 typically you see the "counselors" taking advantage of their power and mentally and psychological abuse the children that are entrusted in their care. Sometimes there's even physical abuse.
I remember when Shari was younger she said she wanted to be an attorney. I wonder if that still stands true because she'd be an amazing family lawyer. So impressed by her!
“There is no such thing as a moral or ethical family vlogger”. Family vlogging should be outlawed.This is the voice of an intelligent, well spoken woman who has lived these experiences and was victimized by her own parents. Please, let’s listen to her wise words and act on them. Making your kids live their entire lives online is disgusting. It's abusive. More strangers have cried for these children and worried about their welfare than their own parents. I DO not believe Kevin Franke should EVER have custody of his children.
Morally, I agree. Unfortunately most if not all of the previous events that Kevin was involved with weren't necessarily criminal. At the very least, it would've been nearly impossible to prove that they were criminal acts of abuse in court. Compare that to Ruby, who literally journaled about her felonies. Also, something that really helped out Kevin is the fact that Ruby's journal literally never mentions him.
@@jennifergrove2368 Amen! Total BS that he is walking around without being held accountable for when he was involved in their very troubling yt channel.
He’s guilty of deliberately ignoring then failing to act on the abusive behaviour of his wife, as a father he was automatically a mandatory reporter or should have viewed himself as one. Morally, he was complicit, he failed his kids by staying away, that was probably the worst, if he said she threatened the end of the marriage if he didn’t comply, he should have said bring it on, my children are more important than anything.
I want to say, thanks to the neighbors that even when Shari went estranged, they continued paying attention to what they could see about the kids and contacted Shari. At least at the end, the police had record that there was a family member interested in the kids, that is in part thanks to those brave neighbors too. Thank you for seeing something and saying something.
This! They cared about those kids, even left them food when they were left alone for days. And they kept Shari informed as well as repeatedly called child protective services. If you see something, do something, stand up for what's right. Especially when there are children involved.
Ruby's malignant narcissism was definitely there before Jodi's psychopathy entered the chat. How classically paranoid that she became Jodi's "victim." Having a "parent" with an infantile mind is such a profound burden. Wishing Shari the best.
what an amazing young woman! standing up against family vloggers is so important in today's day and age and i'm glad someone who has been exploited by it it's speaking out.
The fact that the dad got away with everything completely Scott free by feigning ignorance is insane.The kids deserve true justice.He was in several connections videos,like the one where they only let half of their kids have Christmas presents and made the others watch them open them.
You need to read Shari’s book. I’m not saying Kevin was innocent, but saying that he was feigning ignorance is wildly inaccurate. It’s completely incorrect.

This is the book that every “family vlogger” needs to read and understand. Because people were calling out that family for years and now that there’s proof and first hand information people need to PROTECT THEIR CHILDREN!!
just merely filming isn't "exploitation" in my eyes. It's what is filmed is the issue. Shari puts every family vlogging family into the same abusive box like her own sadistic family. 8passengers exploited everything..from feminine hygiene for preteen and teen girls to emotional abuse for the younger ones. but not all vlogging families are like this.
I'm happy that Shari is exposing her "father" too. This whole time he's been denying knowing anything about the abuse his kids were being put through, but that's clearly a crock! He knew and now his daughter gets to expose him for the coward he is. He should have criminal charges pressed against him as well.
@@sarajames5451 How is or where does it state that Shari is now exposing her father as the coward he is? I don’t recall that being seen her book unless I missed it somehow
It was so obvious. Jodi had been a Jodi all along. That’s why in all of her couples counseling she would push the husband out of the picture, or try her best to. That vest she’s wearing too…🤣🤷🏻♀️
Shari , I wish you the absolute best! You saved their lives. You persevered! You didn't give up. As a mom, I am so proud of you. I'm so sorry Ruby and Jody caused so much pain. Congratulations on your engagement! You deserve a life filled with happiness! You will be a GREAT mom some day!
Sounds like Kevin was doing everything to keep his wife happy instead of being the man he should have been and taking care of his family and loving them kids. He should have taken them kids away when they met Jodi and the crazy started happening
I don’t think he could have mustard enough awareness at the time to even do anything. I think he has codependent tendencies. Not making excuses for him. But it happened.
That DA and the CPS should be ashamed of themselves. It's insane that somebody is already pleading for their help and they still turn a blind eye instead of investigating further.
Does anyone remember a video that came out, can’t remember if it was on Shari’s channel or 8 passengers channel, but Shari was talking about how all of the money she had earned and saved for college, one day just vanished from her bank account. She thought her account had been hacked and her money stolen. Starting to feel suspicious that was Ruby who stole Shari’s money. Does Shari speak to that event in her book?, I’m yet to get the chance to read it.
In the book, she talked about how, after she had gone to college, she secretly opened a separate bank account from the one that had Ruby’s name on it too? and transferred all her own of money to the new account.
@@sarah.93.31 …..I think it was a video I saw sometime back. I could be wrong and I don’t know where I heard it. It seems to be and again, I might be wrong, that when Kevin called the police on Shari right after Ruby was arrested and Shari went into the home (that she apparently had been kicked out of or something), to get clothes for the little kids, it was mentioned then. Kevin called the cops and demanded the laptops back and wanted to press charges (cops said no, it was a civil issue) and people were saying the real theft was stealing Shari’s college money and not paying the kids for being in Ruby’s videos in the first place. There were so many of the videos like that back then though, no idea where I saw it or heard it (and again, I might have gotten it wrong or the other person might have). I just remember people saying the real thieves were Ruby and Kevin, not Shari.
I am glad Shari ended her therapy sessions with Jodi after realizing not only Jodi was trying to brain wash her mentally BUT realized that Jodie was such a total nutcase
I just started the video and I was about to comment "I'm convinced they were lovers bc its the only way her being so deep into Jodi's beliefs makes sense" and what do ya know I was right 😅
Don’t forget the videos with Ruby threatening the youngest daughter with cutting her favourite stuffed animal head off? There was a big petition to stop that video and charge them with abuse? Utah has a lot to answer for?
I'm shocked that it wasn't a live video. She looks uncomfortable in the video when she says the viewers don't know that yet. I'm glad people finally listened to these kids.
They all grew up in the Mormon cult and they all were obsessed with the book Visions of glory by Thom Harrison... brainwashed people doing Culty things
Because he was being kept out of things and he and Ruby were “separated”. I think he worms out because all he could do was maybe send the police to do a welfare check on things but presumably he was getting updates. I haven’t read Shari’s book yet myself but he seems to have been shut out entirely from what was happening.

I am surprised that Shari didn’t mention in her book about where Ruby posted a video of her having a meltdown due to her daughters school playing the Apple bottom Jeans song
Anyone who defends the father, Kevin, needs to be reminded that after Shari was disowned by Ruby, Kevin allegedly never called her or contacted her once. Not even in 'secret' to avoid Ruby knowing. All through college, he never sent her any money for suvival or checked to see if she needed anything. Disgraceful coward that father is.
I remember the episode when the youngest girl aged 6 forgot her school lunch. When the school phoned she told them not to give her any food as missing lunch would teach her not to forget again. Sick
When my son was a senior in Highschool, if he forgot lunch , I would drop it off at school for him. This women belongs in jail for life....child abuse is horrific!
That was the girl found in the house. Based on Ruby’s journals, she had a particular hatred for her (the boy too but she wrote way more about the girl)
Get rid of these family vlogs. These kids can't concent. They dont wanna do it. Dont watch either ppl. We r contributing to this by giving views & follows. Please unfollow all of them.
24:44 who ever that DA is/was should be sued by the kids for aiding and abetting child abuse/failure to act. I bet that DCF never actually examined the children or had them examined by a doctor away from Ruby. Never spoke to any school staff or neighbors. Never had the kids speak to a trained psychologist before closing the “investigation”. SMH.
The children were told not to answer the door, not talk to anyone, so without a warrant, and with the Free Range Law, they said their hands were tied 😬
FANTAS|TIC that you covering content from Shari Franke's Book - -- She is so deserving of the proper attention and care that all those children were denied while living with Ruby and the Enabler Father. Shari is taking us along her healing journey - while offering facts about the way RUclips Filming Clobbered her families privacy and fed a sick woman's projects using her children as content. I watched her give testimony to that panel - at it was great - so well presented. Shame that many people were absent from that in person testimony - and those in the seats behind her fidgeted and scrolled on their phones while she gave her heartfelt missive. Thank you for doing this follow up piece. I hope Shari Franke's book Sells Millions of Copies and helps inform the public what to watch for in regard to hidden child abuse in an affluent home and makes people stop supporting Mommy Baby Daddy Blogging.
I am not sure it's fair to call them ardent members of the church. It seemed like by the time she was arrested Ruby hadn't been to church for quite a long time, because the bishop was trying to tell her how wrong this all is.
Neighbors and others have talked about how they stopped seeing them at church. Once she kicked Kevin out she didn’t want to deal with the questions. She was difficult to get along with and people had a hard time tolerating her.
Right...cos we know how moral the LDS church is!? How ANYONE with a functioning brain could believe the absolute nonsense this church (and every other tbh) spews is astonishing!
Honestly their should be laws at this point to prevent the modisation of children on the internet. Its one thing to post a cute photo of your kid, kids or family its a whole nother to make money off of basicly publicly exposing your child for money its gross. I could never imagine using my children for fame and money. A kid would not have their privet life so public. I cry for these kids
Heartbreaking. This is such a betrayal of wives and mothers. I grew up with so many great matriarchs, but we were always allowed our independence and freedom of thought. I can't imagine living with this sort of nightmare. Prayers for healing for these children.
I had a suspicion there was hanky panky going on when I listened to the husbands interview and how the women would sleep together and him essentially being kicked out of their marital bedroom. Wow, and to find out it was one sided physical love…
I’m so glad that Sherry snapped out of it because during their time on RUclips Sherry mimicked her mother in so many ways she was also known to be a tattletale and purposely get the children in trouble, and then she would be involved in assisting with their punishment.
The father that is legally being protected for some reason abandoned his young kids being abused all by themselves. He was obviously also on board when they were being abused on tape... Funny how that works
Ruby writing that working with Jodi was a dream come true for her inner mean girl, and that the best part was that it was framed as a healthy way of building self-awareness, is both ironic and vile.
13:30 yeah wow 😮 That's not a friendship touch. Even when you're upset (in that video, Jodi looks like she was crying bc she wipes her eye). That is where you put your hand on your lover to show others that you two are intimate.
I'm thrilled Shari has written this book for herself to heal and move on and also to show Ruby she isn't as powerful or important as she always believed she was. Honesrtly, I hope Ruby and Jodi both are tremendously embarrassed by the revelations in this book! For all the shame and embarrassment they both put all the kids/clients in their atmosphere....this ones for you!
What's really scary is that this is only " one " family that we know of whom tortures their children! Imagine all of the other parents out there that we don't know of who are terribly abusive and manipulative with their children and family members!
kevin should be in jail.. he knew for years before jodi was in the picture rudy was abusing the children and he called the cops on sheri when she went to the family home to get items for her your sibs after rudy was in jail..kevin is a pos
She was the breadwinner by a huge margin. His language is a pathetic attempt to gain sympathy from the incel crowd. Looks like it’s working with y’all 😂
I worry a lot about the relationship between Chad and his younger brother. I am under the impression that visits between the 3 adults and the minor children are supervised visits, but one day that will end. Joking around and sarcasm should never be used with the youngest children after what they have been through.
After seeing the other video about all of this - the Dad was a weak man who desperately sought his wife's approval more than he cared about his own kids.
🌸 I followed this from day one and I actually grew up in the LDS church I am no longer an active member however I understand all of the nuances.... but I really have come to believe after watching this whole thing unfold very closely that Jodi is not the horrible one it is Ruby that's the worst one.
Taking a cut from your child is wild…why not put the cut in a college savings or if they don’t wanna go to college give them the $ to live and survive when they’re an adult.

I also read this in a day. Ruby and Jodi are more psycho than I could have imagined. I’m so proud of Shari and wish her nothing but the best life!
Best wishes Sherri! You should be very proud of yourself! I hope you have a beautiful life!❤
this is so sad, but very proud of Shari. i used to watch 8 passengers RUclips channel religiously when i was in high school. 😢
Anyone who defends the father, Kevin, needs to be reminded that after Shari was disowned by Ruby, Kevin allegedly never called her or contacted her once. Not even in 'secret' to avoid Ruby knowing. All through college, he never sent her any money for suvival or checked to see if she needed anything. Disgraceful coward that father is.
I can’t imagine how alone those kids must feel. I hope they have some awesome aunts/uncles/cousins/grandparents to step up and be there for them.
I remember the episode when the youngest girl aged 6 forgot her school lunch. When the school phoned she told them not to give her any food as missing lunch would teach her not to forget again. Sick
When my son was a senior in Highschool, if he forgot lunch , I would drop it off at school for him. This women belongs in jail for life....child abuse is horrific!
That was the girl found in the house. Based on Ruby’s journals, she had a particular hatred for her (the boy too but she wrote way more about the girl)
I was just watching EWU's video on this case. Absolutely horrendous.
Kevin playing the i dont know anything game is inexcusable. He was complicit
Get rid of these family vlogs. These kids can't concent. They dont wanna do it. Dont watch either ppl. We r contributing to this by giving views & follows. Please unfollow all of them.
13:25 body language. These women are sitting like a married couple. 😳
And you wonder why we use to not let them vote
@@Femtoisbackandbetter-g1band you wonder why women avoid you like the plague when you desperately want their attention
So much yuck
This story is WILD, ive been following it before they were arrested
Absolute power, absolutely corrupts. Ruby overdosed on her power and influence. Her children paid the ultimate price
The way she freaks out when her kids speak for themselves….crazy. 🤔
24:44 who ever that DA is/was should be sued by the kids for aiding and abetting child abuse/failure to act. I bet that DCF never actually examined the children or had them examined by a doctor away from Ruby. Never spoke to any school staff or neighbors. Never had the kids speak to a trained psychologist before closing the “investigation”. SMH.
The children were told not to answer the door, not talk to anyone, so without a warrant, and with the Free Range Law, they said their hands were tied 😬
FANTAS|TIC that you covering content from Shari Franke's Book - -- She is so deserving of the proper attention and care that all those children were denied while living with Ruby and the Enabler Father. Shari is taking us along her healing journey - while offering facts about the way RUclips Filming Clobbered her families privacy and fed a sick woman's projects using her children as content. I watched her give testimony to that panel - at it was great - so well presented. Shame that many people were absent from that in person testimony - and those in the seats behind her fidgeted and scrolled on their phones while she gave her heartfelt missive. Thank you for doing this follow up piece. I hope Shari Franke's book Sells Millions of Copies and helps inform the public what to watch for in regard to hidden child abuse in an affluent home and makes people stop supporting Mommy Baby Daddy Blogging.
Should children’s rights to privacy outweigh parental consent in such cases?
Yes.
Yes it should
EWU brought me here.
Literally 😂😂 they just posted the video
Haha I just watched that too
same lol
I thought I couldn't dislike Ruby anymore. She is pathetic, and grateful justice has been served.
Great summary, thank you.
Fours years in prison for their atrocities is a crime in and of itself.
I am not sure it's fair to call them ardent members of the church. It seemed like by the time she was arrested Ruby hadn't been to church for quite a long time, because the bishop was trying to tell her how wrong this all is.
Any evidence??
@edcastaneda9708Ruby said it herself during her sentencing statement.
Neighbors and others have talked about how they stopped seeing them at church. Once she kicked Kevin out she didn’t want to deal with the questions. She was difficult to get along with and people had a hard time tolerating her.
Right...cos we know how moral the LDS church is!?
How ANYONE with a functioning brain could believe the absolute nonsense this church (and every other tbh) spews is astonishing!
Honestly their should be laws at this point to prevent the modisation of children on the internet. Its one thing to post a cute photo of your kid, kids or family its a whole nother to make money off of basicly publicly exposing your child for money its gross. I could never imagine using my children for fame and money. A kid would not have their privet life so public. I cry for these kids
I hope all the Franke children are doing ok 😢
I had forgotten all about this. Perfectly timed book release honestly. She'll make a fortune.
Ahaha ! Even the editor was smarter than Ruby. That woman was so oblivious on so many levels.
They are so evil. Keep them locked up
3 years isn't long enough!😡
Heartbreaking. This is such a betrayal of wives and mothers. I grew up with so many great matriarchs, but we were always allowed our independence and freedom of thought. I can't imagine living with this sort of nightmare. Prayers for healing for these children.
This is Ruby's world. We're all just invited to stay as long as we follow the rules.
Just when you thought you'd seen Ruby's worst. Kevin is complicit.
Kevin left his kids knowing his wife was crazy and he didn’t face any consequences.
This is sooooo messed up.
I had a suspicion there was hanky panky going on when I listened to the husbands interview and how the women would sleep together and him essentially being kicked out of their marital bedroom. Wow, and to find out it was one sided physical love…
Mormons are a cult the girls are arranged for breeding once they leave HS.
I’m so glad that Sherry snapped out of it because during their time on RUclips Sherry mimicked her mother in so many ways she was also known to be a tattletale and purposely get the children in trouble, and then she would be involved in assisting with their punishment.
I'm almost done reading the book. Her mom was such a horrible person! It's such a sad story
The father that is legally being protected for some reason abandoned his young kids being abused all by themselves. He was obviously also on board when they were being abused on tape... Funny how that works
This is crazy
Such a strong young lady! ❤
Ruby writing that working with Jodi was a dream come true for her inner mean girl, and that the best part was that it was framed as a healthy way of building self-awareness, is both ironic and vile.
wasn‘t it Shari, who wrote this?
How crazy that in the recording, Jodi has her hand on Ruby's leg
13:30 yeah wow 😮 That's not a friendship touch. Even when you're upset (in that video, Jodi looks like she was crying bc she wipes her eye). That is where you put your hand on your lover to show others that you two are intimate.
Edge of the knee cap. Y’all reaching real hard with this 😂
21:00 man she cannot handle them laughing and having a moment. She’s quite the worst.
Shari’s book was very well written!
Can’t wait to read the book.
It is crazy they are bleeping out minor names when You Tube has these family influencers.
I'm thrilled Shari has written this book for herself to heal and move on and also to show Ruby she isn't as powerful or important as she always believed she was. Honesrtly, I hope Ruby and Jodi both are tremendously embarrassed by the revelations in this book! For all the shame and embarrassment they both put all the kids/clients in their atmosphere....this ones for you!
I'd almost guarantee all these family blogger parents are doing similar things. Nothing disgusts me more than using your kids for clout/money
What's really scary is that this is only " one " family that we know of whom tortures their children! Imagine all of the other parents out there that we don't know of who are terribly abusive and manipulative with their children and family members!
kevin should be in jail.. he knew for years before jodi was in the picture rudy was abusing the children and he called the cops on sheri when she went to the family home to get items for her your sibs after rudy was in jail..kevin is a pos
"My wife invitied me to leave while I pay all the bills." Fellow men, have some dignity.
It’s actually embarrassing 😂 he needs to be charged just for that
@Femtoisbackandbetter-g1b She must have absolutely destroyed his self esteem, as narcs do.
She was the breadwinner by a huge margin. His language is a pathetic attempt to gain sympathy from the incel crowd.
Looks like it’s working with y’all 😂
@@TF-vb9us Huh? You seem confused
Chad sounds like he s as mean as his mother.Brought up in cruelty they ve learned how to be bullys
I worry a lot about the relationship between Chad and his younger brother. I am under the impression that visits between the 3 adults and the minor children are supervised visits, but one day that will end. Joking around and sarcasm should never be used with the youngest children after what they have been through.
After seeing the other video about all of this - the Dad was a weak man who desperately sought his wife's approval more than he cared about his own kids.
🌸 I followed this from day one and I actually grew up in the LDS church I am no longer an active member however I understand all of the nuances.... but I really have come to believe after watching this whole thing unfold very closely that Jodi is not the horrible one it is Ruby that's the worst one.
Ruby always had noticeably different parenting styles for R & E, especially for R. It's such a shame it escalated to so quickly
Whoa. Worse than I even thought. That is a true personality disorder, RF. That is all pure nuts.
Taking a cut from your child is wild…why not put the cut in a college savings or if they don’t wanna go to college give them the $ to live and survive when they’re an adult.
