The Arizona mother accused of exploiting her adopted children for her YouTube channel died in a Scottsdale hospital before she could go on trial. Machelle Hobson was facing multiple charges, including those for abuse and neglect, at the time of her death. Hobson rose to fame for her YouTube channel Fantastic Adventures, which featured her seven kids, but authorities say there was a dark side to her videos and the children faced serious abuse if they forgot their lines.
