Will Ruby Franke's Husband Face Charges Too?

Will Ruby Franke's Husband Face Charges Too?

Can the pursuit of personal introspection and reconciliation save a broken home? In the recent episode of the podcast "Hidden Killers," host Tony Brueski delved into the complex dynamics of the Franke household, seeking insights from attorney and former Federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani.

Kevin Franke, husband to the now infamous Ruby Franke, relayed a message through his attorney, emphasizing his commitment to prioritize their children's well-being. He stated he's been separated from Ruby for 13 months and wishes to "rebuild and bridge relationships," steering clear of blame games. But, as Rahmani queried, "Is this someone who's trying to get in front of this and not be charged as well?" The skepticism surrounding Kevin's intentions stems from disturbing allegations surrounding the household.

The chilling details brought forward allege instances where children's wounds were treated with a concoction of cayenne pepper and honey. Rahmani remarked, "It really takes a special kind of evil when you're dressing wounds with cayenne pepper and honey." Such horrendous accounts beg the question of Kevin's involvement or awareness and if he too was a victim of Ruby's manipulation or abuse.

Neighbours had consistently raised red flags about the Franke household's unsettling atmosphere. In their attempts to offer aid, some even left food at the doorstep, suspecting the children were malnourished. But their concerns seemingly fell on deaf ears, as interactions with the Utah Division of Child and Family Services left them believing that the agency's hands were tied due to Utah's free-range parenting law.

Rahmani criticizes this inaction, asserting that the evidence against Ruby Franke was compelling enough for intervention. "You can't tell me that law enforcement, social workers can't come in," he argued, emphasizing the ease with which a search warrant can be procured if there's probable cause of a crime. For Rahmani, the situation speaks to a broader, systemic issue, where child protective services, time and again, seem ill-equipped and overwhelmed.

"The crimes are committed in the dark," Rahmani points out, highlighting the hidden nature of such abuses, shielded further by the veil of secrecy that covers juvenile cases. He suggested that the lack of public scrutiny on such agencies – a result of the confidentiality shrouding child-related cases – might be hindering their accountability. "There's nobody that can hold their feet to the fire or not as easily hold their feet to the fire until something goes horribly wrong," Brueski concurred.

In Rahmani's view, the differential treatment and pressure experienced by various prosecutorial bodies play a significant role in their efficacy. While certain investigators are held accountable, either directly or indirectly, through electoral mechanisms, organizations like the DCFS don't necessarily share the same level of scrutiny. "DCFS obviously operates a little bit differently or Child Protective Services," Rahmani remarked.

The Franke case shines a spotlight on the pressing need to reassess and reform child protective systems nationwide. Without appropriate resources, training, and accountability mechanisms in place, such agencies risk repeating the tragedies that befall families like the Frankes.

How many more hidden tragedies must unfold before our system wakes up to the silent cries of the vulnerable?

Family, Fictions, and Flying Plates The Franke Household Unhinged

Family, Fictions, and Flying Plates The Franke Household Unhinged

In a riveting episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," Jennifer Coffindaffer, a retired FBI Special Agent, peels back the layers of the perplexing case involving Ruby Franke, her estranged husband Kevin, and the eerie influence of Jodi Hildebrandt. With a tone that could cut through steel, Coffindaffer casts a critical eye over Kevin's claims of shock and ignorance regarding the unsettling events in Ruby's home, raising eyebrows and red flags alike. Here’s the scoop: Kevin's "Shocked" Stance: Despite Ruby's alarming behavior and her connection with Jodi Hildebrandt, Kevin insists he was merely a bystander, estranged and oblivious, fueling Coffindaffer’s skepticism. The Estrangement Excuse: Coffindaffer isn't buying Kevin's portrayal as the passive, unaware husband, hinting at a deeper involvement or, at the very least, a willful ignorance rooted in his own choices. Family Dynamics Under Scrutiny: The discussion highlights the alleged dynamics within the LDS community, questioning the plausibility of Kevin's hands-off approach given the traditional male-dominant family structure. A Question of Character: Coffindaffer points to a body cam footage incident as revealing Kevin’s true priorities—seeking charges against his own daughter over familial concern. Supernatural Deflections: Kevin's venture into the supernatural as an explanation for household disturbances is met with a healthy dose of skepticism by Coffindaffer, suggesting a strategic defense maneuver rather than genuine belief. #HiddenKillersPodcast #CoffindafferInsights #FrankieFamilyFiasco #EstrangementEvasion #SupernaturalScapegoats #LDSFamilyDynamics #CharacterConundrums Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Ruby's Radical Shift: Ruby's phone calls depict a drastic change in her stance towards Jody, raising questions about the authenticity of her transformation or the psychological turmoil she's experiencing.

Inside Ruby Franke's Home: Husband's Interview Reveals Shocking Details

Inside Ruby Franke's Home: Husband's Interview Reveals Shocking Details

Recent disclosures from an interview with Kevin Franke, the estranged husband of influencer Ruby Franke, have unveiled distressing insights into the atmosphere within their household. These revelations come in the wake of Ruby's arrest on child abuse charges, shedding light on the restrictive dynamics and concerning behavior that characterized their domestic life. During the interview with authorities following Ruby's arrest, Kevin Franke provided a candid account of the stringent rules imposed upon him while he and Ruby were living together. He detailed how Ruby's business partner, Jodi Hildebrandt, moved into their home, prompting a series of restrictions that significantly impacted Kevin's autonomy. "I couldn't come into the kitchen to eat until Ruby gave me permission," Kevin revealed, emphasizing the extent to which Ruby controlled their interactions. Moreover, Kevin recounted Ruby's involvement with a group named ConneXions, which he characterized as a "religious cult." He described how Ruby's behavior underwent a drastic transformation, alleging that she claimed to communicate with divine entities and experienced trances. "The upstairs where Jodi was was completely offline. I couldn't go upstairs anymore in my own house," Kevin lamented, underscoring the unsettling nature of the environment. The dire situation escalated when both Ruby and Jodi were arrested for child abuse after Ruby's son sought assistance from a neighbor. Subsequent investigations revealed two emaciated children in Ruby's home, leading to legal action against Ruby and Jodi. Both individuals pleaded guilty to four counts of child abuse, resulting in the imposition of the maximum sentence of 30 years in prison each. Throughout the legal proceedings, Ruby expressed remorse for her actions, extending apologies to her husband and children for the turmoil they endured. "For the past four years, I've chosen to follow counsel and guidance that has led me into a dark delusion," Ruby lamented during her sentencing hearing. "To my babies, you are a part of me. I believed dark was light and right was wrong. I would do anything in this world for you. I took from you all that was soft, and safe, and good." The release of this interview footage, coupled with chilling journal entries detailing Ruby's mistreatment of her children, has ignited public interest and prompted discussions about accountability and the impact of toxic environments on familial relationships. As the legal process unfolds, further revelations may emerge, shedding additional light on the complexities of this troubling case. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
