However, her recent\u200b court\u200c appearance changed everything.<\/p>\n<p>The Frankes,\u2062 a Utah-based family, gained popularity through their YouTube channel &#8220;8 Passengers,&#8221; which had \u200bover two million subscribers. They seemed like the perfect family, but \u200din \u200dJune \u200c2020, subscribers started noticing some disturbing things. Ruby Franke&#8217;s \u2063punishing techniques, her children&#8217;s pranks, and one \u2062child sleeping in a beanbag raised concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Worried viewers reached out to Child Protection \u200bServices and\u2064 even\u200d started a petition, claiming that forcing a child to sleep in a beanbag was \u2064too harsh.\u200d However, Franke dismissed the criticism, stating that her child loved\u2062 it. In\u200b 2021,\u2062 she and her husband sought counseling from Jodie Hildebrant,\u2063 a \u2064business partner who \u2063became a mentor to Franke and her children.<\/p>\n<p>In August of 2022,\u2063 Franke faced more criticism when she refused to give her six-year-old daughter lunch after \u2063she forgot \u200bit. This punishment was clearly excessive for a young child. Police had visited the home \u200bbefore, but it wasn&#8217;t until August of last year that everything unraveled. Franke and Hildebrant were arrested after Franke&#8217;s 12-year-old son escaped, revealing\u200c the horrifying abuse he \u200dand his sister had endured.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/episode\/beyonce-fans-don-t-come-for-me-my-review-of-her-country-music-member-exclusive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WATCH: Candace Owens<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Hildebrant, who was supposed to\u2062 be \u2063a counselor \u200dto the children, had allegedly put \u2063cayenne pepper and honey on their wounds. \u200bWhen authorities arrived, they discovered another \u2062child in a \u200csimilar condition. As more details emerged, it became \u200cclear that the mother had convinced her children they were possessed, subjecting\u200b them to this abuse as a means of &#8220;cleansing&#8221; them.<\/p>\n<p>This entire situation is\u2064 absolutely infuriating. It <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/children-of-gaza-cheer-when-hamas-launches-missile\/\" title=\"Children of Gaza cheer when Hamas launches missile.\">involves innocent children<\/a> and \u2063a parent with a warped mind.<\/p>\n<p>This week, Ruby Franke and Jodi Hildebrant were sentenced \u2062to 30\u2063 years\u200c in prison. What makes this case fascinating is that Franke \u200disn&#8217;t \u2063fighting the charges.\u2064 Typically, defendants try to reduce their\u200c sentences, but\u2063 Franke&#8217;s acceptance of her punishment is uncommon. In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ev-sceptic-toyota-chairman-says-people-are-finally-waking-up-to-reality-of-electric-vehicles\/\" title=\"Toyota Chairman acknowledges growing acceptance of electric vehicles.\">surprising statement made<\/a> in court, she acknowledged \u2062her\u200b guilt and expressed her\u2064 belief that she deserves to go to prison.<\/p>\n<p>In her\u2064 statement, Franke explains how she became delusional, believing that\u200c the church and the government were against her. She thought inflicting these punishments on her children would save them. While working \u2064with the disturbed\u200b Hildebrant, Franke admits that she \u2064chose\u2063 to believe what \u200bshe heard. She apologizes to her husband, thanks\u2062 the police officers, and pleads to\u200b God for forgiveness. She ends by expressing her desire to one day stand before God, \u2064redeemed and ready to re-enter society.<\/p>\n<p>What Ruby Franke did is unforgivable, and her children have \u200bendured a tragedy. In a world where people often avoid accountability, Franke&#8217;s response is surprising. She takes responsibility for\u2062 her actions, seeks healing,\u2063 and acknowledges that she \u200bdeserves\u2062 the consequences.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s\u200b be clear, the true victims\u200d in this case are the children, and that can never be forgotten. However, Franke&#8217;s response is worth \u2063discussing. It&#8217;s a \u200crare conclusion that\u2064 we\u200c rarely see.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CLICK HERE TO GET\u2063 THE DAILY WIRE\u2064 APP<\/a><\/h3>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> How can child protection systems be improved to ensure\u2063 that\u2062 no child slips through the cracks and experiences prolonged abuse without intervention<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Mentor and counselor, was charged with multiple counts of\u2062 child abuse and kidnapping. Franke was charged with child abuse and child endangerment. The children were removed from the home and placed\u200c in protective custody. It was a stark\u200d revelation that the \u200c&#8221;perfect&#8221; family portrayed \u200con YouTube \u200bhad a dark and twisted side.<\/p>\n<p>The court appearance shed further light on\u2062 the \u2063abuse suffered by the children. They endured physical punishment, psychological torment, and confinement.\u200d The details of their ordeal were heart-wrenching and made\u2063 the public question how such abuse could go\u200d unnoticed for so long.<\/p>\n<p>The Ruby Franke case highlights various important issues that need to be addressed. Firstly, it raises concerns about the distorted image that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/one-year-later-how-bud-lights-dylan-mulvaney-fiasco-pushed-beer-industry-to-rewrite-its-ad-standards\/\" title=\"Bud Light's Dylan Mulvaney incident prompts beer industry to revamp ad standards\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/why-this-average-american-is-voting-for-donald-trump\/\" title=\"Why This Average American Is Voting for Donald Trump\">social media<\/a>\u200b influencers<\/a> often \u200cpresent to the public. The Frankes&#8217; YouTube channel showed a happy and harmonious family, while behind closed doors, there was nothing but pain and suffering. This case\u2062 serves as a reminder that online personas may not <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sunday-watch-party-dr-aseem-malhotra-from-vaccine-pusher-to-vaccine-debunker-how-i-changed-my-mind-about-the-covid-19-jab\/\" title=\"[SUNDAY WATCH PARTY] Dr. Aseem Malhotra: From Vaccine Pusher to Vaccine Debunker\u2014How I Changed My Mind About the COVID-19 Jab\">accurately reflect reality<\/a> and that caution should be exercised in blindly idolizing public figures.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, the case emphasizes the importance of vigilant viewers who spotted the \u200csigns of \u2063abuse and took action. Without the concerned individuals who reached out to Child Protection Services and started a petition, the abuse may have continued unchecked. The case serves as a reminder that everyone has a role\u200d to play in protecting the well-being of others, particularly when it comes to the welfare of children.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the \u200dcase exposes the flaws in child \u200bprotection systems. Despite previous\u2064 visits by the police,\u200b it took a brave escape\u2064 by one of the children\u2064 to reveal the extent of the abuse. This raises questions about the adequacy of the response and\u2063 intervention mechanisms in place to safeguard children. It calls for an evaluation and improvement of the existing systems to ensure that no child slips through the cracks of the system again.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, the Ruby Franke case brings \u200dattention to the importance of raising\u200b awareness\u200c about child abuse and \u2063providing resources to support victims.\u200d It serves as\u200d a stark reminder \u200cthat child abuse can happen anywhere, even in seemingly &#8220;perfect&#8221; families. Education and support systems are crucial\u200c in equipping individuals to identify and prevent such heinous acts.<\/p>\n<p>As the Ruby Franke case \u2063continues to unfold, it is imperative that justice is served, \u200cand the children involved receive the necessary care and support to heal from their traumatic experiences. The case should serve as a \u200cwakeup call for society to be more vigilant, to question the narratives presented by social media, and\u200c to take action to protect the vulnerable.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, the Ruby Franke \u200dcase \u2063has captivated\u2062 the attention of the public due to the shocking revelation\u200c of abuse within what seemed like a perfect family. It sheds light on issues surrounding social media influencers, the importance of vigilant individuals, flaws in child protection systems, and the need for \u2064awareness and support for victims of child abuse. It is our responsibility as a society to learn from this case and work towards a safer and more compassionate future for all children.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Has compelled me to speak out.
