Premiering December 30 on Netflix, Fremantle’s Evil Influencer: The Jodi Hildebrandt Story will pull viewers inside the disturbing rise and unraveling of the Utah therapist whose child-abuse arrest, alongside parenting YouTuber Ruby Franke, shocked the nation.
On August 30, 2023, Hildebrandt was arrested at her home in Ivins, Utah, after Ruby Franke’s 12-year-old son escaped through a window and ran to a neighbor for help. This gripping documentary unpacks the layers of manipulation, power, and control behind the case of Hildebrandt, revealing how as a so-called “trusted” mentor she weaponized her influence and left lasting devastation.
In a measured, unflinching examination, renowned true crime director Skye Borgman (Abducted in Plain Sight, My Father, The BTK Killer, Unknown Number: The Highschool Catfish) turns the lens toward Jodi Hildebrandt to take an in-depth look at the reach of her influence. Through firsthand accounts, the documentary traces how a web of psychological dominance and authority shattered lives.
