No one wants your company data, but above you pasted a problematic
snippet. Based on this, can't you create a minimal test case from it?

I was having similar problems with Nokogiri until I figured I need to
set encoding manually because the automatic detection failed for some
reason. But it's premature to suggest anything without a smaller/real
test case.
