"Revealed: New Evidence and Footage in Ruby Franke Child Abuse Case"

YouTuber Ruby Franke and her business partner were sentenced to up to 30 years in prison for child abuse, with details emerging of horrific abuse inflicted on Franke's children, motivated by religious extremism. The 12-year-old son escaped through a window, seeking help from a neighbor, showing signs of malnourishment and severe bruising. Franke's journal entries revealed months of abuse, including starvation, forced labor, and isolation, with Franke justifying her actions by claiming her son was possessed by the devil. The abuse included binding the boy's arms and feet with weights, using cayenne pepper and honey to dress his wounds, and withholding food and water.
