Mormon Mom Gone Wrong: The Ruby Franke Story

Together, six adorable kids, a loving husband, and Ruby made up “8 Passengers,” a web series documenting the group’s everyday life and Ruby’s LDS-influenced parenting style. To viewers, Ruby had the perfect life, but everything took a turn for the worse when Ruby’s marriage counselor Jodi Hildebrandt, entered their lives. After Jodi moves into Ruby’s home, the environment becomes toxic and Ruby’s husband is forced to move out. Jodi and Ruby’s views of disciplining children were not “strict parenting” but abuse.
