All of her children have puffy dark eyes. And you rarely see them eating protein just carbs and sugar.
You are a monster Ruby 😤
She and her husband started the abuse during her YouTube days.
Ruby will lie to get out of jail.
If they give the kids to the father, they will fail the kids once again .
She is a pure evil person to do that to her child.
Evidence is clear. Look at her children and the condition of her children when they found them.
This is a close case, and she and her poor excuse of a man kevin.
I hope the system does NOT fail these kids….they should never have access to her children again.
She is so evil.
The Father went 14 months without eyes on his kids, that was so bad. The kids had two parents who were done with parenting and they paid a horrible price.
I think her need to look perfect kept her kids getting help. If there was an issue you know she wouldn't have took the kid for therapy.
My husband broke his leg in his sleep as a kid and didn't know for a week, because the pain kept getting worse he finally went to hospital.
Thanks: I have learned to Stay away from the Mormons, Stay away from the Mormon church, AND stay out of Utah!!!! Thank You!
Sad really when you look at old videos of them all. She gave them food willingly. I think she had problems when they grew up. She became obsessive and super controlling. She should of got a job away from them all.
The defense before even hearing it will probably be that, she was treated and raised this way as a kid so that's all she knows…BULL…even CPS DID NOTHING!!!!
Sounds like RA
What they did drink the kool-aid
0h and tell your parents i don't say hi .
Please please for the love of God please let this be the end of the "women are more nurturing' myth.
Oh look. Yet again. THE FISHMOUTH.
Kevin SHOULD Of known what was going on and retrieved his children asap as there were no court orders saying Ruby had full care. He’s just as bad. You fight for your children no matter what . Imo
This so often happens when you've been brought up in a cult religion I've heard.
Kevin was right there, on the videos condoning taking the kid's bed away for months, he was also right there condoning the survival camp training also. So no, he cannot plead ignorance.
She’s going down…
Even my doggies and cats have 24/7 food and fresh water.
I'm really feeling sorry for you as a lawyer
Please redact the minors’ names. They don’t deserve their privacy being stripped as victims.
I had know idea that things were this serious, so sad to hear as they were my favourite American family to follow on social media. I do hope the children are fine and safe. Sending love and prayers to them all❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽
she clearly has a ton of personality disorders. its pretty scary how many people are walking around that act exactly like her. definitely not insane in my opinion. she needs to pay for her crimes. she should be ashamed of failing in this way as a mother.
Some similarities to Lori Vallow. Also look into the rates of filicide committed by LDS women.
I think that little boy who got out the window and escaped is a hero. Whoever hurt those children need to be locked up and the key thrown away.
