Join Becky and Rachel on True Crime Trash for a deep, no-holds-barred dive into one of the most disturbing influencer cases in recent history — the shocking downfall of Ruby Franke and Jodi Hildebrandt.

Once a beloved Mormon mommy vlogger with millions of followers on her 8 Passengers channel, Ruby Franke went from posting “wholesome” strict parenting content to systematically torturing her own children. Starvation, duct tape, shaved heads, forced labor in extreme heat, isolation, and demonic possession delusions — the details are truly horrifying.

In this extended episode, Becky breaks down the full timeline: the early red flags that viewers spotted, the messy divorce, Ruby’s full descent into Jodi Hildebrandt’s cult-like ConneXions program, the nightmare that unfolded in Ivins, Utah, the brave escape by Ruby’s 12-year-old son, and the disturbing evidence found by police — including Ruby’s own 60-page journal.

Rachel brings the fire with her signature savage commentary on hypocritical “perfect mom” influencers, religious extremism, and how this abuse was hidden in plain sight for years.

From viral YouTube fame to guilty pleas and decades behind bars — this is the complete story of how two women turned “family values” into a house of horrors.

Trigger Warning: This episode contains detailed descriptions of extreme child abuse, starvation, torture, and neglect.

If you like your true crime raw, unfiltered, and full of rage — this is the one.
