    There are heavy Topics on today’s show, so remember everything is time-stamped on UA-cam if you want to skip anything. As always, I cover the law without sensationalizing the details. Kevin Franke found out that Jodi Hildebrant is selling her 5.3M home. He is seeking restitution from the sale to go toward the Franke children for their future care and treatment as they recover from the abuse at the hands of Hildebrant and their mother, Ruby Franke. The Judge has ordered that Hildebrandt's assets may not be disposed of until after a restitution order is made.
    In shocking news, Cheer coach Monica Aldama’s son, Austin, has been charged with ten counts of possessing or promoting illegal images of children. I review the grand jury indictment and break down the charges for the state of Texas. Coach Monica talked about how shocked she was when Jerry Harris was prosecuted for similar charges.

      I came to the comments for this.
      I saw the video from the parking lot of the police station where Kevin Franke was badgering two officers in a conversation about WHY he couldn't press criminal charges against his adult daughter who had entered the family home to retrieve belongings for the minor children after Ruby Franke was arrested. Clearly, his badgering took place after he asked inside to press charges and was denied.
      You have to wonder how twisted he is to INSIST he wants to press charges against his young-adult daughter in those circumstances.
      That man can be judged as a waste of oxygen for this act alone.

    It’s amazing that KF can go over a year without seeing, or protecting, his children, but the second he sees a way to continue using them for profit, he’s right there to collect. The children definitely deserve compensation, but it should be awarded only with a third party to manage it, and protect the children’s long term interests. KF should never see a dime, as he was right next to Ruby approving of, and participating in, the emotional abuse of those poor kids. Frankly, he should have been charged with abandoning/neglecting the children, at the very least.

      @@Mama_Bear524 exactly. i PRAY that if the money/restitution is awarded that it is awarded to the CHILDREN in the form of a trust somehow instead of to kevin himself. They need someone to truly advocate for their best interest. I can almost gaurantee if Kevin gets the money it will be gone and the kids will be left holding the bag into adulthood to pay for their own medical/mental health care. This is likely going to be a long term issue for kids who were raised like this. The older children ALSO deserve mental health care IMO too for what they had to live with and the trauma of growing up being forced to see what their mother/jodi was doing to their younger siblings , the 2 middle girls who were staying with Pam seemed emotionally disconnected from what was going on and even just THAT has consequences mentally- having to dissasociate and emotionally detach from how your siblings are being treated and the situation at home... they were also probably brainwashed to some degree to think it was ok . This is the kind of cult mentality that needs 'deprogramming' via counseling and then when you realize what you've been thru it can be a whole other level of retraumatization that needs even more mental health care. All of these children need help and I hope they have someone making sure they money will end up in the right place, in the right hands, for THEIR benefit, not their neglectful (opportunistic and money hungry) father

When they are adults, if they choose to come forward and discuss these things publicly, then they can do that as they are ready to. It breaks my heart knowing people like this exist in the world. I would die to protect my child and I don't think I could live with myself if I wasn't able to protect her, even if it wasn't my fault. I even feel guilt for these kids who aren't even mine.

      Until you have the complete story and FACTS you can't accuse someone of things you have no actual proof of.

      He likely wouldn't get the house, he just doesn't want the $5.1million to disappear and Jodi to say "oh no, I have no money and no assets, I'm broke, too bad so sad". Liquidating assets is kinda a red flag.

      The house is one of Jodi's biggest assests (if not the biggest) & it's currently for sale. If it sold without this claim, then Jodi gets the money & it would quickly disappear. This way, the children will get any & all profit from the sale of her home. Kevin isn't actually wanting or asking the court for the house itself, like to live in it. He's just asking for the money/profit from the sale of the home. The house can't sell now until the judge has ruled on this filing.

    As someone that went through that type of child abuse. As someone that was raped as an adult. I will never understand why the punishments are not more severe. In my opinion, doing that to people is worse than murdering then because they have to live through the pain and the trauma every day of their life. They have a life sentence, they never are free or normal or back to what they used to be ever again. And these people are getting away with either probation or two years in jail. Like what? The Punishment needs to fit the crime.

    It seems the children should get funds from Ruby's half of the estate since they were essentially used as child labor on the Franke family's podcast.

    Sorry Emily... you're wrong on the idea that "most of the big operations" for CSAM (Child Sexual Assault Material which is the current proper reference to what your call CP) is done by the federal government. The LIONS share of cases are initiated by State and Local departments, often working in ICAC (Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force which is a Federal partnership). Feds often take over prosecution of the case that was initiated by Local. Just to give credit where it is due. ICACs often but not always receive cyber tips from NCMEC (National Center for Missing and Exploited Children) which is the official clearing house for Cybertips about people transmitting or receiving CSAM. Just offering a little info about the people that have to look at that crap constantly and pursue the inhuman garbage that trade in it.
