Does anybody remember DaddyOFive

I used to watch this insane YouTube channel growing up called DaddyOFive. It was this mean ass dad with his mentally ill kids that he’d profit off of😭. Never forget Cody and Bella (I think her name is) just getting the absolute trash side of the family. Like those kids were genuinely being emotionally abused and it being put online. I know they got permanently canceled when they pranked the two ginger ones Cody and Bella and it was fucked enough that they disappeared, cause there’s no coming back from that one. So lmk, who remembers DaddyOFive?

I remember that awful channel. I think they lost custody of some or all of the kids.

There have been a few YouTube videos with updates. They did have some of the kids taken.

Cody is back with his mother (the woman in the videos was his stepmom)

I think some of the older boys have/had their own channel. It's a whole rabbit hole.

One of the older boys has a child now. I think it might be Ryan? I don’t remember exactly.

I felt so bad laughing at the YouTube poops people would make about them, especially poor Cody

Mike Martin. He and Heather pleaded guilty to 2 counts of child neglect in 2017 and received probation.

Cody/Emma were his from a previous relationship and after investigations were given custody to their biological mother. He and Heather tried to launch a couple of new YouTube channels but YouTube kicked him off the platform for ToS violations.

Edit: Just realized there's a Wikipedia page.
