Ruby Franke believed her children were possessed by demons | John & Jane Doe cases
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO GO STRAIGHT TO THE CRIME CONTENT, PLEASE CHECK THE RELEVANT TIMESTAMPS. Ruby Franke (8:28) Doe Cases (35:17) The diaries of former mommy YouTuber Ruby Franke have been released and go into detail about how she abused her children. Ruby believed they were possessed by demons and repeatedly wrote that her son and daughter were the “spawns of Satan." In a July 2023 entry about her son, Ruby wrote: “I will not feed a demon.” The children were found emaciated and injured in August 2023. Ruby has since pleaded guilty to four counts of aggravated child abuse and will serve her sentence in a Utah prison. She may face decades behind bars. In this age of technology and DNA advancements, it is unbelievable that some unidentified John and Jane Doe cases have never gotten their names back. We discuss two such cases in this episode. In June 2020, the remains of a male and female were found in Pinos Altos, New Mexico. A gun and suicide notes were found near their skeletonized remains. In August 2021 in Wadesboro, North Carolina, a barely clothed female was seen on a trail cam in the middle of the night, in the woods. Her remains were found the following year and she remains unidentified as of the time of recording. Could this Jane Doe be missing woman Amber Rae Johnston? In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss updates in the Ruby Franke child abuse case as well as some Jane and John Doe cases.

Just Another Scammy Cult | Twin Flames Universe
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO GO STRAIGHT TO THE CRIME CONTENT, PLEASE CHECK THE RELEVANT TIMESTAMPS. (6:55) - Twin Flames Universe Jeff Ayan met Megan Plante online in 2012. The couple had similar interests and were both interested in spirituality. Megan was studying under a spiritual guide at the time, and that person advised her that her spiritual name should be Shaleia. Megan has gone by that name ever since. Jeff and Shaleia moved in together and soon began to form ‘Twin Flames Universe’. A Twin Flame is a term that has been used to describe two people who are equals. Twin Flames are meant to push the other in their journey of self-discovery. Jeff and Shaleia have allegedly urged their followers to pursue their twin flame matches, regardless of the law. Some of their followers have been told to ignore restraining orders in order to match with their flame. Twin Flames Universe followers sometimes pay thousands of dollars for information from Jeff and Shaleia. One former devotee even had to declare bankruptcy after spending all of her money and up to ten hours per day studying Jeff and Shaleia’s teachings. Vanity Fair journalist Alice Hines described the classes as “a therapeutic-spiritual reality show”. Is Twin Flames Universe a cult? Jeff has denied that is it. He told VICE “We created an organization of love and harmony which heals and enriches everyone in it and everyone who is connected to anyone in it.” In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss Twin Flames Universe.
