DESCRIPTION:
(from Lifetime's press release, September 2024) Together, six adorable kids, a loving husband, and Ruby (Emilie Ullerup) made up "8 Passengers," a web series documenting the group's every-day-life and Ruby's LDS-influenced parenting style. To viewers, Ruby had the perfect life, but everything took a turn for the worse when Ruby's marriage counselor Jodi Hildebrandt (Heather Locklear), entered their lives. After Jodi moves into Ruby's home, the environment becomes toxic and Ruby's husband is forced to move out. Jodi and Ruby's views of disciplining children were not "strict parenting" but actually abuse. But when Ruby's 12-year-old son escaped from Ruby and Jodi's real-life house-of-horrors with clear signs of abuse, the truth came to light. How could this idolized family-friendly mother of six and her spiritual guide transform into convicted child abusers? Find out in this riveting Lifetime original movie.
