Jodi Hildebrandt and Ruby Franke are both currently serving prison sentences of four to 30 years after pleading guilty to charges of aggravated child abuse in 2023. They were arrested after Ruby’s son escaped Jodi’s house and asked a neighbor for help. He was severely malnourished, with duct tape around his extremities.
Officials launched an investigation into Jodi’s home, where they discovered the young boy’s little sister in a similar condition. A search of the home unleashed more horrors about how the children were treated.
