Ruby Franke’s sister Bonnie posts scathing message after sentencing

Ruby Franke’s sister Bonnie Hoellein posted a scathing message after the disgraced YouTuber was sentenced for aggravated child abuse.

“A world full of distractions, and I only have eyes for them,” Hoellein, 38, captioned an Instagram reel of sweet moments with her four kids Friday.

“Satan himself could not come close to making me harm them. #valentinesday #valentines2024.”

Fans wrote supportive messages to Hoellein amid her family scandal.

“Sending you and the family all my love ❤❤❤,” commented one person.

“I hope your family (all of you) can start to heal from here ❤️,” added another.

“Your family’s been in my prayers extra this week. Only God knows how much you really do love your children. Been looking up to your parenting for 10 years now ❤️ sending you guys love,” said a third fan.

Hoellein’s cryptic post comes three days after her sister Franke, 42, was sentenced to up to 60 years in prison for four counts of aggravated child abuse. (Each count carries a term of one to 15 years, which would be served consecutively.)

The mom of six, however, will only serve 30 years maximum due to a Utah law that caps imprisonment time on consecutive sentences.

The former “8 Passengers” host will have 30 days to appeal her sentencing once the Utah Board of Pardons and Parole determines her exact amount of prison time.

During the hearing, Franke issued an apology to her “six little chicks.”

“To my babies, my six little chicks. You are part of me,” she said in court Tuesday, per “Today.”

“I was the mama duck who was consistently waddling you to safety. I can see now that over the past four years, I was in a deep undercurrent that led us to danger.”

In August, Franke was arrested after one of her children escaped through a window to a neighbor’s home, where the child asked for food and water.

The neighbor alerted police after they saw the “emaciated” child who was also bound with duct tape. When authorities arrived, they discovered another child, who was also malnourished.

Ruby’s estranged husband, Kevin Franke, filed for guardianship over the former couple’s 16-year-old daughter, Abby, earlier this month.

He has also tried to regain custody of their four minor children — Abby, Julie, 15, Russell, 12, and Eve, 10 — ever since his estranged wife was arrested in August 2023.

They also share two adult children: Shari, 20, and Chad, 19.

Jodi Hildebrandt, Ruby’s former business partner, also received the same sentence after the judge told her she “terrorized” the children.
