The private investigator hired by Ruby Franke to “protect the family” is speaking out about his experience with the YouTube mom. David Corrington said the “level of abuse” endured by the family is “horrendous.” Franke and her business partner, Jodi Hildebrandt, were charged with six counts of child abuse after Franke’s son escaped from Hildebrandt’s Utah home. The Law&Crime Network’s Jesse Weber gets the inside scoop from Corrington, a licensed private investigator and retired U.S. Department of Homeland Security special agent.

so essentialy. No the Investigator did not see anything. What a waste of 24 minuts
As a former long time mormon I have observed that there is a very large undercurrent of “enlightened” mormon women who believe that they are enriching each others lives and families with very poor advice regarding marriage and family. These women are often very inexperienced but feel somehow “special” and empowered by the “Holy Spirit” to dispense this ill advice. Vallow, Hildebrand, and Frankie are just the high profile members of this disgusting group.
She’s really arrogant isn’t she? I bet she’s not arrogant in prison!!!
So he did nothing. It's easy to get ip address.
Bullied children tend to become bullies. With a bully as a mother, it explains why Chad bullied Russel. He probably also saw his mother bully Russel
U need to learn to count that’s 8 people total not 3 u ssi 3 people, Kevin, his wife and the children there r 6 kids total
The father is weak little coward.He never got upset about the abuse he got upset about her going to prison.The cop and to push him to get a reaction it was very bizarre.He also is religiously disturbed and sexually disturbed as most religiously obsessed people are.
Everyone hones in on that the eldest son has no bed for a year ..but i cant help but notice how everyone laughs at the mean things being done to russel .. abusive families sometimes choose a scapegoat in the fam
Any one else get the impression that the whole family sort of gains up on or gets enjoyment at Russel 's expense
Shes not going anywhere now.
He was very vague for a private detective. I think he knows more
And why do/did they have all that money?! Bc oh the exploitation of 6 of their “passengers”!!! Disgusting!
This investigator looks very unconcerned about this situation. Another person that did not really help
And the threat was always inside the house.
Maybe he was hired for a diversion. also the dad not having any communication that we know of. Is that was the kids all say they never spoke to their dad for 15 months?
She is so evil. She even laughs when she talks about what she does/has done to her children. She should be thrown under the jail. She should have to endure every single thing she did to her children over and over again until “she is made so uncomfortable she will work out all the evil she has in her soul”. Just like she did to them. She is a monster, and knew exactly what she was doing and saw herself as superior to not only her family but to everyone in general. Jodi, just helped her justify her actions, and Jodi saw her as an easy mark.
There is not much this man could add. He was totally kept out of the loop for a reason.
Their channel is still up… juz fyi!!! 🤔
Why is this video titled in a way that makes it sound like this PI witnessed horrendous abuse?
Did they ever go to Disney Land or any holiday.
Agree Jesse. It is highly suspicious that the father didn’t see his kids for a year!! And when being told the situation, he puts his head in his hands?! My husband would have been through that ceiling!!
None of this is funny!!!
I agree with the PI that at that earlier stage the videos were not how most of us would deal with a child but were not the extreme crimes that Jodi and the mother did later illustrates on that heart wrenching 911 call. Nor is not going to the home at all strange – most fairly well known families even youtubers do not want everyone coming to their home so typical would speak to lawyers, accountants, PIs even from a different office address to maintain privacy at home.
Her punishments escalated. Sadly children had to suffer horribly. Sad that it was not discovered earlier. How a Mother could do that to her children is beyond my comprehension.
This boy is trying to tell us he was being abused.
What a hypocritical family, they talk about how evil police are (Ruby even said that in her Oscar nomination speech😂😂) and brainwashed their children that way, but as soon as they need help who do they go to????… Yeah the evil police😂😂
"I'm not going anywhere"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
.. straight to jail jail is where you went 😂😂 and we all hope it's for a very very long time 🤬🤬🤬
