Its long been known that the batshit crazy mormon "mommy vlogger" Ruby Franke had a sadistic streak when it came to her kids. She'd frequently post about new and increasingly draconian ways of abusing her 6 children under the guise of "tough love". Forbidding the children from having friends, denying them food as a punishment, forcing the oldest child to sleep on the floor for several months for using a mobile phone to text- the list goes on.
However, in 2023- the abused seemed to have escalated to the criminal when her 12 year old son managed to escape captivity. The boy is seen limping onto an elderly neighbor's property without shoes to beg for the police to be called.
Why do so many insane fundamentalist christians have so many damn kids when they're just gonna abuse the shit out of them? The Duggar family comes to mind...

May these kids find peace and love and heal from this </3
Child abusers have a special place in hell.

Bro I hope she's tortured by other inmates the way she tortured her children. What a fucking worthless excuse for a human. I don't really deem things evil, but this shit is.

The mother of this boy blames her behavior on the other chick she was making youtube shit with. About parenting advice. You can't make this shit up.
Something that stood out to me when I was watching this bitch being sentenced was the lack of mention of the fathers of the two abused kids in this case. Where are they? There's no way the abuse the mothers were inflicting on these kids would be unnoticed, not a fucking chance- which either means the fathers were in on it, or they weren't in the kids' lives enough to see the signs of abuse.
But that still leaves us with the ringing question that so often comes up in so many different kinds of cases: Where, was, the, father?!

He left the home to get his addiction issues under control, hadn't seen anyone in the family in the previous year.

So, not a great father, but at least he wasn't actively involved in hurting these kids like this.
I find it hard to believe that he knows nothing about what was being done to his kid while he was away. Someone was giving these two women these ideas, right? Idk, it just feels like there is more to this sordid story.

Women are, supposedly, capable of having ideas of their own.
Possible the woman's violent insanity caused him to drink, he left and was one of those who was just told he'd never win if he tried to take custody so just be happy you're not paying $2000/month in child support and get out because she'll never let you see the kids anyways.
I'll let him walk on jury nullification if he murders her when she gets out.

All I know is I hope they don't let her out early or at her minimum I'm sure she will try to play model
inmate as well. She's got a rude awakening to come. Most women 
in prison 
would 
do desperate 
things to be with their children 
again so they don't take kindly to women 
who hurt their kids. Rightfully so.

I hope so. They should have their meals fucked with. See how they like it. Starving your own kid in a house full of food is a special kind of fucked up.

It definitely is and that's a very real possibility I hope they starve them!

I never understood why "You can't make this up" is a saying. People can make anything up, it's a dumb saying.

Let me help you to understand: It's so absurd, that not even the most deranged or imaginative people could comprehend someone doing something like this. I don't see what is so difficult to understand about this very, very simple turn of phrase.
I used it here because so many variables had to fall perfectly into place, each one equally absurd and outrageous, to form this fucked up story. Do you understand the phrase "Life is often stranger than fiction"? It's the same concept. Hope that helps.

It's not stranger than fiction nor is it impossible for people to make it up is my point. I understand the saying. It just doesn't align with how creative people can be. Look at the beliefs of scientologists.
I don't have a hard time understanding it, it's just a stupid phrase that isn't accurate.
If you're going to say I stated I didn't understand, that itself is also a simple phrase people use.
