Evil Family Channel Mother Finally Facing Justice

Ruby Franke, the evil woman responsible for the 8 Passengers YouTube channel is finally facing justice for the horrible things she has done. Today, we talk about what she could have in store. Buckle up.

And Jodi Hildebrandt currently considers herself the victim and the CHILDREN she abused as the perpetrators. I’m not buying Ruby Franke’s sudden remorse but Jodi is a monster. She’s ruined a bunch of people’s lives

[Babyrang]

Now let’s hope she’s kept away from children permanently

[DrDubMemes]

As a psych student, there is a ton of messed up stuff that happens when you are abused as a child. Like, it is literally so bad there can be GENETIC CHANGES that can get passed on to your children. Child abuse absolutely deserves harsh punishments when it is this severe. I hope the children have people who will love them and help them overcome this trauma.

The absolute best part of the sentencing is when the Prosecutor tells the court that Jody Hildebrandt has shown absolutely no remorse since day one. They got her on recorded prison line saying that she was the victim and that the kids were to blame. Such a horrible woman!

[JustTristan]

Honestly every parent that uses their own CHILDREN as a cash cow need to spend the rest of their lives in jail.

[belantww]

Jody is an evil cult leader and Ruby, with her already radical parenting methods, was ripe for the picking. They are both horrible human beings, but if Jodi is ever released, she will do the same thing again.

As a person who was born and lives in Utah, I can't tell you how relieving it is that this piece of garbage has been locked up.

Also, yes. She can serve up to 60 years. How it works is that, because she's serving 4 consecutive sentences, when her first one is done, whenever that happens, the next one will start, and it'll remain like that until she's served her sentences.

I never heard this mom, but I'm happy that the justice was served

I work as a Courtroom/AV Technician for the state I reside in. The audio quality often suffers due to outdated technology in my courtrooms. Sometimes the audio is clear, but other times it's extremely muffled. Our courthouse, constructed in 2009, still relies on technology from 2004-2006, such as projectors, VHS/DVD players, and VGA for video and audio. Consequently, we have to use VGA to HDMI converters, which is far from ideal. Recently, our state lost a case because our technology inexplicably failed. It seems like our equipment has a mind of its own. I imagine the Judicial OIT team at UT struggles with these challenges daily. To make things work, I often have to borrow AV equipment from one courtroom to use in another. However, this makeshift solution sometimes results in disrupting an entire courtroom. While this is not how audio should function, I can attest that things can and have been much worse based on my experience.

"8 Passengers" is a chillingly ironic name for a family-friendly YouTube Channel that would succumb to such a fate. Ridley Scott's quintessential horror movie "Alien" was titled "8th Passenger" in international theatres way back when it came out in 1979.

The husband definitely deserves jail time as well. He was involved in the channel for years and he took part in the punishments and also never stepped in and said "hey maybe we shouldn't STARVE our children" It is LUDICROIS that he is just free!! Makes me so angry but I really hope his kids do NOT let him pretend to be innocent. Not now, not ever.

[korbinbattson]

I’m so disgusted that she’s trying to blame others for HER actions. I hope she stays in prison for at least 20 years.

[Nezsecretchannel]

OH THANK GOD! I’ve been waiting for this for over half a year. I’m so happy she’s finally facing justice. I can’t explain how happy I am

[spicytrashpanda]

The state may go comparatively soft on her, but I tell you, her new room mates might very well commute it to a life sentence. People who hurt kids don't do well in prison.

As a Utahn, I feel compelled to give an extra bit of context here.

TLDR: Jodi Hildebrandt's services were often recommended by local LDS leaders.

The ubiquity of Mormonism is perhaps the most common stereotype about my state. And deservingly so. A lot of people base all of their decisions around religion to the point where they'll go to their bishops for everything from marriage counseling to career advice. Because of this, a lot of bishops have lists of psychologists and counselors that they recommend to followers.

Now, somehow or other, Jodi Hildebrandt found her way to the top of a lot of bishops' lists, and a lot of people were hesitant to stop seeing her once they started because they trusted the word of their bishops so heavily.

I highly doubt that Ruby is the victim she claims to be since she was pretty obviously a child abuser beforehand. But I will say that if Hildebrandt lived in a different state, it would have been way more difficult for her to inflict this level of damage. These are just the issues that come with allowing your faith to dictate you every action, unfortunately.

Is it that hard to not abuse their children 😭😭😭 people are messed up

[lisapop]

Jodi's niece came forward & said that she was treated the same way when she was sent to her custody.
Imho, the publicity will die down & she will be quietly released after the minimum. 10 years max.

[flarestriker]

Glad she's finally facing justice, hopefully the inmates put that monster through that same abuse she put her kids through. As the old saying goes, all kids deserve parents but some parents do not deserve kids.

1 family channel down. 100s more to go. That’s the sad reality. But, we can still help. 1 can turn into 10 then 100 then thousands. This kids are counting on us, so we need to help

[RayvenLunaNite]

I survived familial (stepmother) and d.v abuse for a majority of my life. It fills me with a sense of relief that justice is being handed out
