In audio obtained by Fox News<\/em> on Saturday, the 41-year-old social media personality\u2019s neighbor reached out to the police at around 10:50 p.m. on August 30 after a scared 12-year-old boy showed up at his doorstep in Santa Clara, Utah, begging for help. The worried man told the emergency dispatcher:<\/p>\n \u201cI just had a 12-year-old boy show up here at my front door asking for help, and he said he just came from a neighbor\u2019s house, and we know there\u2019s been problems at this neighbor\u2019s house. He\u2019s emaciated. He\u2019s got tape around his legs. He\u2019s hungry, and he\u2019s thirsty. He asked us to call the police. So he’s very afraid. I don’t think he needs an ambulance. I’ll let the cops decide that, but his ankles are taped up, and he won’t tell us why. \u2026 There’s sores around him.\u201d<\/p>\n Related: Police Were Contacted Multiple Times About Ruby Franke’s Family Over The Years<\/strong><\/p>\n The neighbor then seems to break down in tears before sharing these devastating details:<\/p>\n \u201cI think there\u2019s a good chance he\u2019s been …\u00a0 OK, this boy has been, this kid has obviously been, I think he\u2019s been detained. He\u2019s obviously covered in wounds. … He says what happened to him was his fault. She might come looking for him here soon. \u2026 We need the cops here as soon as possible. She\u2019s a bad lady, we didn\u2019t realize how bad.\u201d<\/p>\n At one point, the child identified his mom as Ruby.
