Ruby Franke was sentenced to serve between four and 30 years in prison for aggravated child abuse.

Her estranged husband Kevin Franke and her own journals shed light on what was going on behind closed doors.

The case is now being unpacked in the new Hulu docuseries Devil in the Family: The Fall of Ruby.

The Frankes ' YouTube channel amassed more than 2.3 million subscribers.

Jodi Hildebrandt has agreed to a freeze of her mental health counseling license.

Jodi is the founder of ConneXions , which offers training "built on principles of Honesty , Responsibility, and Humility" Ruby Franke called police on Sept. 22 to request a welfare check on her younger siblings, according to police records.

Ruby Franke and Jodi Franke were charged with six counts of felony child abuse.

Ruby's 12-year-old son ran out of a window of Jodi 's home and asked for food and water from a neighbor's house.

His condition was "so severe," he was transported to an area hospital.

Police say they found evidence "consistent with the markings found" on the boy.
