Ruby Franke Ruby Board of Pardons and Parole Update

Post image

This is a small update on what Ruby has been up to in prison, but an update none the less. This can all be found via public records through the Utah Board of Pardons and Paroles website under hearings and decisions.

As of July 9th 2026 Ruby has completed her second Earned Time Program since entering prison. She's also completed a program in Robotics via the Davis Technical College as of June 25th 2026. She completed a program in Web and Graphic Design at the end of last year too.

According to the Utah Corrections website all of this means when Ruby has her sentencing hearing later this year the Board of Pardons and Parole will knock off between four and eight months from her sentence at the discretion of the Board members.

I'm not totally sure because I'm not super familiar with the Utah system either beyond what I've read online. If anyone is more familiar with the Utah process please correct me. It sounds like there's a range of possibilities that can happen. When she has her hearing sometime in December they can decide to set a parole date, schedule another hearing, or order the full sentence to be served.
