"Utah mommy blogger and YouTube parenting channel host pleads guilty to child abuse charges"

Utah mommy blogger Ruby Franke has pleaded guilty to four counts of second-degree aggravated child abuse. Franke and her co-defendant, Jodi Hildebrandt, who ran a parenting and lifestyle YouTube channel together, were charged with six counts of child abuse in September after two of Franke's malnourished and neglected children were rescued from Hildebrandt's home. Court documents reveal the physical and emotional abuse suffered by the children, including being forced to do physical tasks, denied food and water, and subjected to severe emotional harm. Franke's sentencing is scheduled for February 20, and she has agreed to testify against Hildebrandt as part of her plea agreement.
