    Ruby Franke: worst mom ever

    "Devil in the Family" (2/27/25, 3eps, 50-min, Hulu) This documentary charts the rise and fall of Ruby Franke's "8 Passengers" Youtube channel. Hulu did a really good presentation with this, but the visual and audio redactions were annoying and apparently unnecessary since you can find a short 20/20 presentation of this on YT which has no such restrictions. When you watch you'll wonder how it took so very long for her abuse to be identified and stopped, especially regarding the Utah state agency whose JOB it is to investigate such matters! And husband/father, Kevin, is a sorry, pathetic character. He should've been prosecuted for criminal negligence, so much disgrace to spread around. And we find at the very end that she is eligible for parole in Dec 2026! That's horrifying, this monster should've been sentenced MUCH more harshly to 25 yrs hard time w/o the chance of parole. Finally, I hope people don't miss the incredible religious irony that in her effort to battle the evil in her children, she and Jodi exhibited the most heinous evil we dared imagine.

    a metaphor for life today!

    So frightening that the Father and son, believing that they were being lied and deceived to by police about Jody and Ruby all the way until the very end of the documentary. Father still loving his wife despite everything she had done. And, from the very beginning, the millions of followers believing in the "cult" of Ruby despite evidence of craziness.

    Not only is this family nuts, but the neighbors, the male therapist, everyone being interviewed sitting in their perfect living rooms all gave me chills. ...and then, OMG, reading that the son is now an internet influencer despite all the abuse he received from day of living in front of the camera all his life. His scars are not physical like his baby brother, but boy will they be mental.

    As observed by other reviewers, the only breath of fresh air and sanity is the oldest daughter. I"ll also add to that the police officers. The one that found the daughter, stating he that couldn't help but break down and the female cop that said this was the weirdest interviews she had ever.

    This documentary is not only a metaphor but cautionary tale of life in the U. S in the 21st century, where seems like everyone is brainwashed about everything via the bombardment of info via the internet.

    And the craziness didn't stop there as every ad (in the version I watched) was sponsored by HIMS and HERS and how hair loss, weight loss, depression can all be achieved discreetly via ordering online pills and/or potions. These ads remind me of the snake-oil salesmen of the Old west.

    Ruby a crazy betch

    Documentary is great. Shows how terrible Ruby & Jodi are. The father was obviously brainwashed but he had to know some sort what was happening....probably just did this for the paycheck not the story.

    Anyway, it is entertaining cause you see a manipulative Karen (Ruby) throughout her videos but the abuse she did to her children was the sad part. She was extremely controlling and it was funny how all her neighbors did not like her. Cutting off your children is insane when they did nothing, I feel like she started cutting off the older children because they couldn't be controlled anymore and she couldn't profit off of them cause they were becoming adults. Terrible person.

    She was the devil

    Ruby Franke is where she belongs - in jail. Why isn't Kevin? This doc wants to make him the victims too. I understand he seems very weak, and he was completely infatuated with Ruby and would have done anything to make her love him. How he allowed Jodi Hildebrandt to move in with them is a mystery. He also let his wife sleep in Jodi's bed, under the auspices of protecting Jodi from the demons that she possessed. He gets kicked out of his own home by these two nut jobs; here a man would put his foot down and fight for the kids. Not Kevin. He left. His daughter Shari tries to reach out to him, she also shunned by the mad women. What does Kevin do? Blocks her from calling him again.

    Honestly this doc should have been called: "Why is this guy not in jail with the other two".

    We need to talk about Kevin.

    This doc was interesting far more detailed than what i was getting on TikTok.

    I would like to put Ruby and Jodi aside from my review. These are two evil, mentally unstable, delusional psychopaths who were made for each-other.

    Good riddance to both of them. I hope they rot in jail.

    Now let's talk about the husband. This guy absolutely sucks and should be held just as responsible and investigated. His priorities are all over the place. He literally went with everything his wife said and condoned everything she did because he lacks the balls and intelligence (this grown ass man doesnt know what the word emaciated means fyi) to stand up for his kids. He knew exactly what his wife was capable of and he stood by and let it happen like the pathetic greedy fool he is. Be a man and pull yourself together and get these kids out of her clutches! It should have been easy task!

    This entire doc series, he acted as one of Rubys victim, but in actuality he was an enabler. Zero awareness. No thought process. Were we supposed to empathize with this sad sack? This guy ABANDONED his entire family and is blaming it on being brainwashed, no sir you were not brainwashed, you were just a pathetic excuse of a father and took zero accountability. The truth is, he got away scott free with no consequences.

    He literally didnt do anything to help his children, all he thought about was himself, his greedy thirst over the YT money. He keeps blaming it on not having any contact for a year when he got kicked out of the house but couldnt pick up the phone to see what the kids were up to? He also had his oldest son and daughter's phone numbers blocked, so they couldnt reach him. I cannot believe he wasnt investigated for pure negligence at this point.

    I only feel sorry for the two youngest children who missed out on the "youtube cash flow fairy" and instead got stuck with cult hell misery.

    I seriously hope the kids are happy and healthy.

    And I hope Kevin lives a miserable life.
