Vinny, I wonder if this pervert got Maddie pregnant and he murdered her to hide his secret? Do you know if a pregnancy test was done? He also had child p*rn on his phone since 2020, why wasn’t he in prison for that?
Love Vinnie but he needs to stop saying “as I investigate…” he’s not an investigator. He’s a former prosecutor who now acts as something of a TV performer. What new evidence has Vinnie offered for the defense or the State? No offense but Vinnie and court tv need to know their place. They are for entertainment purposes only
I unfortunately find this channel, members only opinions disrespectful. I will not click again.
I absolutely hate how HE describes her when mom is right there & police asked her,not him!!!🤬🤬🤬
The biggest red flag here is, that when police asked about Maddie's medical condition, they didn't mention that Maddie has asma, and needs her inhalator. They didn't mention that, because they already knew she wouldn't be needing it..
Her mom says Maddie was 110 Lbs. The CREEPS jumps in and says 112 Lbs. What difference does 2 Lbs make? How would he know Maddies exact weight. Thats Creepy.
Power and control.
Right, my husband wouldn't even be able to say what our daughters weigh, what boyfriend would know that....they both are absolutely disgusting! She was serving her daughter up to him frequently!!! Who sends their daughter to bed with their boyfriend!!! 🤬🤬🤬
No boyfriend should even know the weight or feel comfortable enough to even comment about it!
@@lisamariedesignboutiquewell said
What man that hasn't lived in the house for months and months know what she weighs ?? What man would know what a child weighs anyway???
"This girl knows nothing but love here in this house."You killed her,monster
yeah by love he meant sexual abuse. 😡
This comment was repulsive. He is VILE
Too much love😅😅😅
@@ritaranee4787 nothing funny about this
@@ElsaRose-vq8wb true
That mother is guilty as sin… She allowed that poor child to bed down with that monster and out of her own selfish needs kept him in a home with her daughter. She knew she knew she knew that child was dead. She knew that child was being molested. She’s disgusting. She needs to be in prison yesterday.
YESTERDAY. WHY WHY WHY are they not charging her??? We are getting angry!!
That mom served her daughter on a platter to that monster 👺 probably for her own thrills …..
Totally agree! She knew what was happening to her daughter 😢
Agreed. That mother is as evil as that monster. She knew & she didn't care. She only cared about her own selfish needs.
They broke up. He comes to stay there after 3 months of being broke up and she says" you two go sleep together in the other room" SERIOUSLY? No one talks about this. A break up is usually somewhat emotional or awkward. So to have that happen and then the child is missing and Jenn is SO CALM it is just so weird.
She's a freaking idi*t!
Agreed!!!!!
To be fair, Jenn and Stephen said he moved out to his parents to do a job that fell through. So they claim they were not broken up
He was in it for the girl from the get-go
And the fact that she couldn’t wake her ass up to take her own daughter to school after missing her birthday party…
The more I watch these. I'm convinced she was covering for this sicko
I’m starting to feel like she is part of this and knew what was going on.
I think she was part taking in this horrible disgusting sad situation this little girl went thru I have a 13 year old lil girl and man does this hurt my soul god bless her soul
Of course she is! First he said “we” dropped her off at school…but she doesn’t correct him the way she did when she told him she wasn’t at the party! He gave her the story! Any loving mother will make sure to get that story right if you want to find your child! She should be charged for lying!
She sure was.
That's the probably the only way that he would stay with her long as he can have the daughter
Sterns stating her height & weight creeped me out from the start.
And the beauty mark 🤮
And right after Jen already told them. He's so effing weird and disgusting.
I know right…it’s disgusting to think of him looking at her body in any kinda way.
Her menstrual cycle too. Makes me sick.
And he even knew her weight so well that he CORRECTED her mom...
If my CAT was missing for eight hours, I would be crying, screaming, rolling on the f-ing floor! Mother is weirdly calm and doesn't have a photo ready to give police???
Boom!
Exactly.
My cat did go missing one evening last month.
I live in a village and most here have their cats fixed and vaccinated, and indoor/ outdoor cats are the norm here.
My beautiful old man “Ringo” usually comes inside at 6PM, every evening, for years.
When he didn’t come in, by 630 I was a mess. Sobbing, terrified, and blaming myself. I think I had an anxiety attack. It felt like I couldn’t breath and had to breathe into a paper bag.
About and hour later, my son texted me for his room (we have a huge house) that he let Ringo in “about 5” and the cat had been sleeping on my son’s bed the entire time.
Not my child gone all day, but my cat who wasn’t at his usual door at his usual time. ❤
My cat Has been missing for 3 weeks now & I'm loosing my mind!! Ive been crying on a daily basis. I've got flyers of her up everywhere, posted her all over online & I'm Heartbroken! I couldn't Imagine if it was My KID!! I'd probably be locked up in a mental ward. And no way in Hell I'd let my 13year old girl go sleep with my boyfriend....wtf is wrong with her???
Exactly. My cat was gone about 20 hours before I figured out he was gone. I was Tripping and blaming myself. 2-3 hours later he popped out of my neighbors stairway. I felt like an ass… I was blaming myself going absolutely crazy.
@russianaloha4576 I pray you find your friend 🧡
@@embracegrace723 Thank you, I hope so too. I miss her so much 🥺😥😭
When mom says, “she never made it.” It always stands out to me. She needs to be charged soon.
Now.
She needs to be charged yesterday. She needed to be charged when he was charged… She’s a disgusting human being.
Omg me too! Like how do you know she didn't make it? Maybe she went and met with her friends and decided to skip school. Why keep saying "she didn't make it". "Nope nothing is traceable nothing is available to look at" like what?
Yep, I just went in depth about that "phrasing " .Sed coldly like "She didn't cut the mustard " sort of ring to it !! X❤X
Rip Maddie darling , blossoming Beautiful girl x❤x
What bothers me is not that she says it, but that she says that exact phrase at least twice if not more with both police and news. It sounds like it was them making up what they would both say. 😢
Mom stated she didn’t see her in the morning but she corrected Stephan saying she was wearing shorts not pants. Right there she’s lied.
Oh good catch!
But in one interview Jen mention she saw her before school. Too many different stories.
Sadly having some channels and people defending Jennifer so much they name call and attack anyone who questions the Mother. I can't believe some people think it's ok to let a grown man sleep with a child and teen. Anyone IMO who defends that gives me huge red flags.
This is so much better than grah hughes
She also said she loved her presents and bday party which she told friends the opposite. Her mom didnt get her anything and no one came to the party.
Not her scrolling for 10 years to find a picture of her kid..
Stephen had over 1500 photos and videos of her 😡
WTF 🤬 hours later
I thought the same. I take a picture of my kids atleast every other day
@@MonikahHernandez right and have multiple of them as my background.
@@MonikahHernandezI take more pics of my dog!! Maybe it was because she had “accidentally” reset her phone too. Shame.
The biggest red flag here is, that when police asked about Maddie's medical condition, Jenn didn't mention that Maddie has asthma, and needs her inhaler, any other mom would be panicking.
Jenn didn't mention that to the police, because she already knew Maddie wouldn't be needing it..
@Hope-NotToday. Wow, that’s a huge thing that you caught there!
I’m a mom and an RN, so catching detail is usually my super power, and I totally missed that.
I think you’re right.
HOLY SHITE, that’s like she came out and said,
“Officer, we unalived her.”
@@JaimeMesChiensIt was Maddie's teacher that said she struggled with asma and had an inhaler in her locker❤
Grizzly true crime caught that fact
@@Tylerrr86 Maddie's teacher stated that, its on record....
And it's all over TikTok and Reddit.
So not really an inside information.🤦♀️🤷♀️
@@Tylerrr86 I love Grizzly, she’s amazing. I have asthma and have since childhood. That’s one of the first things my family members would be concerned about, absolutely.
As soon as laptop is mentioned she looked at the cop WITH FEAR
That’s what I was thinking too- and if it were me- I would have immediately said oh my gosh I don’t know- that’s a good idea let’s do that. But she immediately says , no it’s not. How in the world would she be so sure that the school issued laptop isnt traceable. That just sticks out to me majorly! I’d be jumping at the bit to have it traced!
SS looks like he's about to pass out at 10:52 when the officer is looking at JS Phone.
The golden question is…clearly Jenn lied about seeing her that day..but why would you lie? That alone should’ve raised a serious red flag. ARREST.
What I don’t get is in the first interview when officers asked what was she last wearing. Stephen describes and then Jenn corrects the color of pants. During that interview she also claims she last seen her morning of around 8am. We know now that in a later interview she then switched her story and said she in fact didn’t see her day of but day before.. if she never seen her day of how is she correcting Stephen on what she was wearing day of disappearance? I see so many inconsistencies and question a lot of the way Jenn is responding.
She clearly is involved. No panic at all in her face especially recently learning that she never made it to school. She is reciting a gathered story she and Stephen played. If officers didn’t respond till 4 hours later. I can tell you right now I’m not gonna just sit around and wait for a response. I’d be out searching the “last known area” and talking to each of her friends in person. She knew Madeline was being sa as well. The only panic I see in her is the fact that she is worried truth will be discovered.
@@christinalock9937sorry but imo she’s guilty for allowing this monster to sleep with Madeline. Cops found sex lube and a tripod set up in the room they were in. Sorry but that is child endangerment and abuse in and of itself! You can’t tell me otherwise that she is not guilty
She is 100% guilty! Told her disgusting bf and preteen daughter to go sleep in guest bed! Wtf?!
Actually no she didn't. She didn't say she saw her wearing shorts. Stephen couldnt even remember his own lies and maybe at at some point had told Mom she was wearing shorts, so when he got it wrong to the cops, she had to correct Stephen.
The mother should be in jail. I am 53, struggling with complex ptsd. my mother turned her head to my stepfather abusing me and torturing me starting when I was 3. Her brother started abusing me when I was 4😔. I cut her off 7 years ago. I quit drinking 3 days later, after drinking a bottle or two of wine a day to self medicate for 11 years. My heart aches for what this poor little angel went through, As I am grieving what happened in my childhood as it haunts me constantly. RIP madeleine 🙏❤️.
stop lettng them hurt you. my dad was not physically or sexually abusive, but verbally and emotionall he was a monster. sitting around gettingptsd is stil letting them win. shake it off. i did. it wasnt easy, but you have to or it ends up being an excuse and it continues to hurt your life. dont let them do that anymore. i cut off all the relatives, and i havent been happier in my whole life. i dont believe in ptsd. thats for weak people. you have to know you were not a bad kid, kit wasnt your fault, you cant pick your family, and you are worthy! once u get that, you will be free! btw i accomplished everything and more i ever wanted to after letting them all go, and not allowing memories to hurt me again.
Sending healing light and energy to you. You should've been loved and protected. And while you can't go back and save lil 3yo you, you can help her heal by loving her and letting her know she is not to blame for anything that was done to her. May you find the courage to overcome the trauma inflicted on you. And may you find the love for yourself that you need to heal completely. Keep your peace of mind and stay away from those who don't deserve you in their lives.
I’m so deeply sorry what happen to you, this is something so difficult to overcome but, the best you can do it not live there and move forward however you can, I suffer something similar and now I don’t let the shadows of the past to hunt me, I do art and it’s fuels my soul, we can’t change the past but, we can change our future if we decide it.
God bless you, sweetheart. I’m so sorry. 😢
I'm so sorry you went through this. You're a survivor, turn that pain into doing something to help other children who might be going through similar experiences. ❤
I’m mortified at how well he could describe Madelyn it’s almost like he comes to life for her description! RIP! I hope he gets the DP!
And Jenn too, she's a pedo and approved/participated
stephan barely says a word until they're asked to describe Madeline, so creepy that he corrects Jen about Madelines weight
Mom's face looks afraid - scared of being caught. She's wondering if they are buying her story. She already knows. Her rocking is self-soothing / stimming, trying to calm herself. It's so uncomfortable to watch.
ITA-- the rocking back and forth isn't from a mom worried for a missing daughter. It's like nervousness and trying to subconsciously distract police from her guilty knowledge.
Guilty!! It’s written all over both of their faces! Fear!! Of getting caught, evidenced by her swaying side to side and him with arms crossed in front. In this video she doesn’t seem to interact with SS. When he describes Madeline’s “ beauty mark” on her face (is nauseating) but Jenn is slightly turned away from him the whole way through the interview!
Once she found out Madelines laptop was traceable she started "dancing" & no sense of urgency/panic.
She innocent she didn’t know they where having sex
This will be a grave injustice if the mom is not brought up on charges also. She is far from innocent in all of this, IMHO.
Similar to the Anthony case!
@@IreneAnderson-t1q Funny, I thought of her, too. And she’s quickly becoming one of the most hated women in America, just like Anthony.
Yet, as someone else here said, they may have to offer her immunity to get the goods from her on SS. I, however, feel her danger to society as a negligent mother is almost as great as SS. Hand in glove. Any minor children left in her care should be, to borrow a phrase from the Read case, “rehomed”.
And she should be charged with what?
And what proof do you have.
Because I'm sure if the Cops had anything they would arrest her.
Did she make a lot of stupid and reckless decisions?
Yes, without a doubt but that's not illegal...
@@MsMarplethey don't need the goods on him they already have enough to lock him up for good two times over.
If anything they'll take the DP off the charge to get the goods on JS and lock her up.
I can’t even look at SS, he makes me sick, knowing what he did to Madeline. Freakin CREEP🤢🤮
I know I haven't even been watching this case I just can't imagine what this turns out
Don’t you like just staring into his eyes
I agree. He is the creepiest POS. I can't say what I'd like to see happen to him or I'll be in trouble. He is a loathsome, evil scumbag.
All those people standing around should’ve been scouring the neighborhood not standing around like a bunch of goofs .
They didn't bother looking or even checking her home address to see if she had gone home.. They all knew the truth and are now protecting that freak excuse of a mother.
I found that terribly weird. ALL of them. Like they're all trying to get "casually" draw attention to themselves in the background. A whole bunch of weirdos!
27:18 see Stephans attention when Jen answers the phone then he does a BIG exhale when she says “hi principal” like he was worried someone found Madeline. CREEP
The first giant red flag was Mother not going into the school when Maddie didn't come out. There are a number of reasons a child would still be in the school after hours. Mother didn't go in because she knew Maddie wasn't ever there . IMO.
Omg I think so too
🤦🏽♀️😞
I never even thought of that ....
Will monster Sterns accuse Jen of unaliving Maddie when it goes to court?
That's right, I would park it double lines to go inside. Let people complain. She was all about keeping the line long, so what? She is not a smart person.
When he said she just celebrated her 13th birthday it literally gave me the chills 😢
Me too...creepy af
He's disgusting
Same
Yes and mom gave Maddie's birth date!! IMO Mom knows something 😢
It came out in the 896 court papers that Madeline would have worn black shorts that day to school because she had PE that day. Jenn was taking a guess while trying to come across as if she had seen her. Very suspicious.
That casual "hey there" makes me unreasonably angry every time I hear it
Black shorts. He was the one who allegedly dropped her. He knows pretty well she wasn't wearing black shorts. These two are both guilty for the miserable life they caused to Madeline until one of them or maybe both ended her life.
Probably he told Mom that Madeline was wearing shorts, which is why she corrected his own story .
He knows what color cuz he dressed her
My daughter disappeared for about 2-3 minutes in Walmart when she was under 10. I was frantic! Jen is way too calm.
Agreed
Exactly!!!!!!
Yesssss !!
True statement.
I agree. She also has a very fearful look in her eyes, rocks back and forth, (like Chris Watts did), she looks as if she is hiding something.
Mother is so calm in this video as if it was normal for her daughter to go missing. Then she starts the back and forth movement..
So right Alice.
Self soothing
That back and forth looks stranger each time you see it.
@@janetcampbell5678 Yeah, but she looks like a nutjob doing it.
The Chris Watts swaying 😮😮😮smh
He was MOVED OUT. Since December.
Jennifer called him to COME BACK.
He got there 15 minutes after Madeline got home from her birthday party.
The next morning, Madeline is murdered.
Coincidence?
I think NOT.
Is it possible he killed her before mom got home and mom assisted in the clean up? Or is it too early based on her condition in the car? I wonder if we have the actual times that they came to the residence (via the video footage at gate) or if we are just relying on their word.
I don't get it. What do you think the motive is? Only thing I could think was she was going to tell 😢
Whoa
I did not know that….. wow! That’s terrible.
@@kaylariggs5188I think he was SA her the night before or that morning and she threatened to tell and he strangled her. He put her in the car and dumped her and the evidence. I don’t think it was planned but I still think it should be 1st degree murder.
Mum wasnt at the birthday, Stephan wasnt there, many of her friends werent there. Everyone let Madeline down.
Not to mention the fact that she allowed her bf/ex bf & daughter sleep in same bed. IN. ANOTHER. ROOM. Who tf does that!!???
Madeline was upset because she didn't get much for her Birthday. Along with the no- show for the party by both of them, it made me wonder why. Also, who throws a party for her 13 year old (a big deal becoming a teenager) and doesn't attend?
It still doesn’t make sense to me why Jenn would send SS and Maddie to another room because she “needed to get sleep.” What did she know about what would be happening that would disrupt her sleep? Shouldn’t everyone just be sleeping? That is shady AF.
She pimped her daughter out. She knew exactly what she was doing
Great point, hopefully to investigators it's a huge red flag and prosecution has caught on
Exactly. Disgusting.
Right? Send them to bed together instead of him sleeping on the couch even. Disgusting 😊
How can he state “like every other morning”, when it was also stated that it wasn’t common for him to drop her off. This Mom is annoying me and definitely knows more than she is sharing. She needs to be in custody.
Right? And he hadn't even been living there. How would he know what was typical?
He's trying to sound like a "good caretaker" he's such a freak. He literally thinks he's duping everyone. He thought he was so smart.
Exactly… he is sus
She pimped her daughter out … clearly… sent her to sleep with Stephan from an early age… they both clearly groomed her
I have said this from day one! “Like every other morning” and “her regular routine”… 🤦♀️ so so bad.
Its the casual "Hey there" greeting for me. No way.
"Hi Principal! I'm okay! How are you?"
😬
As if a bicycle is missing
My husband went to pick up our daughter from school and we completely forgot she had her first day of Theater class. He called me saying that she wasn’t coming out like she always does! He began crying, called the police and then was walking toward the office and our daughter came out. He told the police oh my gosh she’s here! And the police told him it was good that he called anyway. He had a panic attack and the office staff were helping him to breathe. All was ok and now we look back on this and know that we’ve been watching too much of this case but definitely would call the police asap all over again.
Yes! One time my son was in an after school program in kindergarten and the van didn't drop him off at the usual time. I had such an anxiety attack I couldn't stand up and I called my mom and begged her to help me find him. She made a bunch of calls and found out the van had a flat tire but I know that there's no way I would've been able to calmly search my phone for a photo and answer questions. One of my family members would've been doing it for me. And btw, what Mom wouldn't download and share a picture of her beautiful daughter on her bday IMMEDIATELY?? She had to search for it!
If only Maddie had had parents like you guys. So glad your daughter was ok.
It drives me absolutely crazy when the police officer is getting her description and he is answering with Jen about her beauty mark her weight it just creeps me out
100% with you on this! Also, the way he corrects his use of past tense and says ‘(if you) see it’ rather than ‘(if you) saw it’ when he mentions Madeline’s beauty spot.
Especially when you know the kind of videos he took. ARREST PICK-ME JENN
It looked like the mom had to look at her photo to verify the mark.
The mom is so calm. My child (16 years old) was missing like 3 month ago. I scream and call police everyone. Police come home whit her in 2 hours. I cry and was so worried 😢
I disagree because everyone processes things differently and I personally am a take care of business and cry later.
In this world hell no for me be this calm
My kids are my life. I will not just stand there late in the night and NOT CRYING and screaming plzzz help med my baby
I was more upset when my bird flew out the door then this woman was over her child missing.
@@Tammy_26Irwinyou’re not a mother. We can all tell
@@Tammy_26IrwinI agree, I’m the same as you. My son went missing and my focus was on giving the police all the information they needed to be able to find him, I wouldn’t have been able to do that if I was a blubbering wreck, it would have taken longer to tell them what they needed and I wouldn’t have been able to call his friends or even think straight to be perfectly honest! I fell apart when they brought him home safe.
It’s so revolting seeing him answer questions and her nervous, stupid little dancing. These people are so vile I could vomit. Cop walks in and she says,” Hey there!” I have a teenager. There’s NO WAY.
They should have been separated & questioned privately, away from all those ppl there also
Missing person report
Everyone handles stress/grief differently, I get that. But some things are just plain obvious. As a mother, and just as a normal human being, this woman knew this man was abusing her daughter. No mother or woman, on this planet would ever allow & encourage a grown man to go into a bedroom alone & sleep in the bed with her little girl. Never! She allowed everything that happened to this poor sweet girl & was involved. In my eyes, even though what he did was unspeakable, her part in this is even more unbearable & she should be put away for life.
I agree 100%. That’s neglect & abuse in the highest form imo.
@@shaunahale6769 Yes!! In the highest! 💯
An unrelated male! A father can be with his daughter. My dad used to tell me bedtime stories when I was little whilst I was snuggling up with him until he was asleep, not me. That was in 70s Germany and it is one of my many and most cherished memories. Nobody would protect me more than my own parents.
@@dingo1666first of all the man wasn't her father. He was her mother's boyfriend.
@@florencehaber9847 that’s what is meant by “an unrelated male”….
I have a child that age and I would be like a wild animal if my child was missing.
Same!!
🫂 Amen.
Their demeanor is as if a bicycle is missing. Ridiculous
His description of Madeleine’s body and her beauty mark turns my stomach. He makes me feel ill. How dare he say these things about her.
mom is 1000% covering for him. she’s guilty too. she knew even if that meant turning a blind eye… disgusting.
RIP baby girl. 😢
They both sound scripted to me, I don't believe the mother (if she can be called that) didn't know what was happening. He used her to get to Madeline it went on for years. At the least she should be arrested for child neglect. She let the monster into her home and gave access to her daughter.
Such a twisted mess they both belong in prison.
Apparently there was a tripod set up in her room too. Mom didn’t find that odd ? Or it odd he still wanted to sleep with her daughter even thou they were broken up ? (It wasn’t normal when they were together either but in her weird brain .. but even worse once they weren’t together)
Poor child. Can't imagine how she lived in her head.
I know 🥺😞
Mrs H 🇬🇧 ... I believe it's the only place she lived dreading the next time that creature abused r*ped her...Devastating...💔
I can I went through the same thing at 7-10 by my half brother he threatened me etc his dad was the lead singer of iron butterfly wish he was in jail wish I said something 😢
It must have been horrible. So sad
yeah I've actually been crying over this girl here. Its so sad she never had a chance even with her own mother. This world is getting more evil by the month now not years.
The way she’s rocking is so hilarious and very telling. That’s that guilt rock
SELF REGULATING
It’s the Chris Watts Sway.
I still think it’s weird that she missed her daughters 13th! You change your shift, take a holiday or ask someone to cover for you, it’s like it was planned that she wouldn’t be there or she didn’t want to be .
Ella no fue al cumpleaños porque sabía que él iba a matarla. Me gustaría saber qué regalo le compró. Por lo visto ni siquiera invitó a sus amigos, hizo la fiesta para no levantar sospechas pero todo estaba planificado.
I thought that too.
@@GG-cj4jxhe didn’t have the party Maddie’s grandmother had the party and she didn’t invite him, she did not like him.
It’s interesting that the mom says to the officer that,”She was dropped off “ instead of saying that, “Stephan dropped her off” or “ my boyfriend dropped her off “
It’s like she doesn’t want to tie him to what happened.
Good point!
Cos if he's caught she's caught
What kind of mom takes THAT long to find a picture of their daughter….
All I know is that if my daughter who is 14 was missing for 12 hours, I would be flipping the hell out. And I definitely would be out looking anywhere I could think of. Also, I’d be bugging the cops and telling them they need to be out looking for my child. I wouldn’t be rocking back and forth stuttering and struggling to get my “story” straight. I’d be telling Mr. “Step father” to uncross his arms and go look for her as well. I can’t even imagine acting the way these two are acting. I don’t think that I have ever seen two people look more suspect than they do. I mean thank God the detectives had enough sense to do what they needed to do to find her and get all of that digital evidence.
Why isnt that mother in cuffs already...The quicker they arrest her, the quicker she'll turn on him and start singing...
So creepy seeing her murderer standing there. Justice for Madeline.
Her killers cuz she helped him may be tried to stop her to said she will tell everyone what they did to her they get angry and turned violent to this girl and some how kill her
I can't stand to see this horrible mother danced his leg sc
I was on edge through that whole video - he looked so GUILTY😠
then spotting the little girl in the background, I shuddered as she was so close to that monster...
Jen is so casual. I hope she ends up in jail for trafficking her daughter
I’m wondering after hearing the cop say on his walkie that they’re looking for a second missing child why they didn’t ask, “Is there another missing child?” I mean I would ask because these “abductions” may be related. We know of course they are not now. But if I’m a mom of a missing child I’d be asking.
Her side-to-side motion is a form of self-soothing. Her daughter is missing and you are being questioned by the police. Both of them are strangely un-emotional. If your child is missing this long, you would be deranged, beseeching the police to find their child. I'd be going crazy with distress. They seem evasive.
Stephen had that fake scared/sad face/voice, like Chris Watts and Barry Morphew.
So glad you are staying on top of this. Thank you Vinnie
Look how long it took for JS to find a picture of her daughter! My kids are adults and they’re still my lock screen.
Soooo my daughter was dropped off…. Not my daughter is missing!!!!!! We need to find her!!!!
Yeah, she's telling a story alright, just not well!
She has friends but doesn’t know where they live. I found that unusual
Bingo. Even if she’d never gone to their houses, she would most likely still know what neighborhood, apartment complex, etc
I hate when Jennifer Soto laughs during this interview. Evil
Stephan Sterns was NOT at her birthday party..
Documents state that he drove from his mother's house in Northport to
Florida to Jenn's house and arrived at around 8:25 p.m. on Sunday February 25th, the day she celebrated her birthday 🙂
Right. Such inaccuracies for a huge tv channel
No 13 year old is gonna forget their mobile at home, that’s awful convenient.
A 13 year old would have noticed she'd left her phone at home in the car, so she'd want to go back for it. He said he returned for the gate clicker, so wouldn't she have asked him to get her phone too? Also she would only be searching in her bag for earphones had she had her phone with her.
Jenn Soto deserves LIFE in prison NO parole. She is invovled deeply with what was happening. She washed Maddie's clothes and bedding. My Lord she was 8 yo😢to 13yo. Prison.
RIP Madeline 💖🙏✝️🌸
2:22 Why does Jen soto look like Quasimodo from that Disney movie "hunchback of notre dame" lol
😂😂😂 i cant unsee it now hahahahahahahahah
Because she wants to cower underneath her guilt. It’s comforting her to stand like this and refrain from looking at officers or any others properly!
She also looks like the penguin in Batman
@@mimix6303 OMG yesssss lmao 🤣
@@gamer4ever1234 true I hate how she's making her eyes bulge out like that like she's overly concerned or like overly observant to everything like she's trying so hard to look so concerned I feel like I done that before when I knew I was lying about someone but I tried to act like i didn't know what was going on lol it's only a matter of time we see she was arrested lol
This woman should be in jail along with her boyfriend. She was a big part of the problem.
Sterns is very concerned about his hat covering his forehead...I wonder if he has traces of a fight right there..That scumbag, standing there with his arms crossed, whilst knowing he dumped poor Madeline in the bushes, just hours ago. May he rot in jail🤮
He did have scratches and finger wound that he said he smashed changing the tire.
She looks more nervous than scared...He just looks dead inside. Pure evil...this world is sick
Why didn’t the creep just provide pictures of the missing girl to police? Apparently he had a ton of them. This guy won’t make it a month in prison. The guards will look the other way
God willing!
I hope hes as scared in his final moments as poor madeline must have been.
He also had child p*rn on his phone for years!! I don’t understand why he wasn’t in prison for that!! Law enforcement knew about it, he had been charged in 2020!
@@bbe3034 seriously?!?!?
@@bbe3034Jesus that makes it even more sick. Jenn must have know her bf was a child sex offender!
My dogs escaped the backyard and I was absolutely frantic searching for them. I was crying and so upset and these were grown dogs not my 13 year old daughter. I can't imagine being so calm if she had been missing for 12 hours.
This isn't the first time we've seen this Vinnie. Vinnie's on repeat
Naturally today is a National Holiday. You will notice you won’t have mail or trash pick up.
yea I noticed that too, he does the same topic/video at least twice a week. 🤦🏻♀️ at least do new updates lol.
@@ruthmarland835 Not everyone on UA-cam is from U.S and A.
@@stayblessed.272 I love Vinnie's dramatic pauses too. It is a horrific case though, it's so damn sad.
@@Weebay_213 Definitely is a horrific case, I remember when the child alert went off. I'm here in Florida, I'm patiently waiting for the mom to get charges!
His "beauty mark" comment is creepy af
And correcting Jen when she said 107lbs & he said 110-112lbs
@@sarahpohl9282 He got confused by the dead weight when he dumped her
He knows wear it’s at cause he’s seen too much of her unfortunately so that’s why it’s creepy
Mrs H 🇬🇧 ... For me the Mother knows more than she's saying ... Jeez she allowed her 13 yr old, Impressionable daughter to sleep in the same bed as the so called Step Father...What Sort of man allows that also.... This case is extremely distrubing... If it was my teen that I'd be panicked to hell.... Mother needs charging too....This young girl was extremely Used, Abused & Failed.... RIP Madeline...🙏💔
Is this Mrs H 🇬🇧?
100% the mother has been complicit in her daughter's sexual abuse for many years. She encouraged and directed it. If they don't charge her and she has another child? She will likely do this again. She is a lethal danger to human life. Wicked, uncaring, flippant, selfish, cruel.... did not love her daughter 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
The mother is rocking back and forth and laughing . I really think she is involved . She knows something.
I feel sad and sick for the Jurors that will have to be a part of these trials with all of the disgusting evidence.
Do you think they’ll have to see that porno
They seriously thought they were going to get away with this...
It's really disgusting that this creepy guy already knows exactly what happened to Maddie 😡
He probably woke Jenn in the middle of the night and told her what he did. They spent the whole day trying to figure out how to cover it up. I think she knew about the abuse and thought she could get him bk living in her house and be with him, if she offered her child up to him. Absolutely sick. She was probably jealous of the attention madeline got from him....who knows what her involvement is
When my two youngest children went to a circus, I never got a note from school. They were missing for 7 hours, The police finely found them. After that happened, parents were called every time there was an event. My children were 5 and 6. I nearly had a nervous break down. My heart was beating so fast, and I could not stop crying!!. My children were hungry and thirsty. I have never been so angry in my whole life. The police men were so angry at the principle and the teachers. They wanted to bring them to jail, It was terrible. Of course they changed their policies and parents are given a permission note. I never want to go through that again.
Why is no one noticing the lack of eye contact with Jen & Stephan?? She has SERIOUS distain for him. Also, her hands in the “pregnant” belly position whilst rocking states her loss. Ffs, NONE of these SO CALLED “body language experts” picked up on this. Shame
My 14 year old ran away about a month ago. As much as I tried to remain calm when I was giving the police her information, I was a mess. I had pictures ready for them, what she was wearing, everything. I had a hard time getting out that information between bawling my eyes out. I couldn’t imagine as a mother how anyone could be as calm as Jen Soto was. She knows something if she wasn’t involved.
I have a 12.5 year old and even if you don’t have a printed pic from recently, I would have pulled the last printed photos in addition to my recent phone photos! She had hours to wait until the police got there! And then she didn’t give the police Maddie’s phone! She left it at home!
Did you find it
I really didn’t like the way the officer was talking to his coworker or maybe Sargent about looking for “another” missing child in front of the mother. Whether or not she’s involved or not I would have FREAKED out hearing that while reporting my own child missing!
mom should be locked up for life for allowing her daughter in her bed and being complicit in her daughters demise disgusting if she walks
She (Maddie) was 12 years old+1 day …. people think 13 years - she did not get to live in her 13th year & was abused 7/8 yrs old till her death … mother never pressed LE to find her daughter in a frantic attempt…. She is abusive too ! She served her daughter up freely with intent & this perpetrator arrested for the murder of Maddie got the directive’s & permissions from Jenn Soto the bio mother -
Howard is she not responsible??
no, when u turn 1 uve been alive 1 year. so she was 13 + 1 day...
Are you sure you passed kindergarten?
The look in her eyes is fear... Fear of getting caught!!!
How exactly can you determine that
HOW ON EARTH WOULD HE KNOW WHETHER MADDIE HAD ANY SCARS, JUST THE THOUGHT MAKES ME CRINGE. . .
bc he had been molesting her for at least 5 years. theres videos and photos in his phone all the way back to when she was 8 years old. who had a phone for that long?! 😳
Cause he was with her naked for years they where having sex did you not listen to the info about the case
@@ginosko_he RAP3D HER FOR MANY YEARS!
My son is 34, years old. I can’t sleep until he gets home. How can this mother be so calm, talking about her missing 13, year old daughter?
Wth😅
Jennifer is constantly moving, because it brings people attention to her movement, not to her story. This is her trick. Also they both, Jennifer and Stephan met Police for the first time out of their home for some reason, as if they wanted to clean it, or waited as detergent's smell will gone.
I'm convinced that she knew! Lock her behind up!
Did you see the reports on her teachers interviews? She wasn't passing in work and getting Ds and Fs. Her teacher also told her mom (Jen) that she was tired all the time.
My handsome go- to guy on all true crime stories! My husband and I watch every episode! We have followed you since you started with Court TV . Thanks for your excellent coverage of every case!
Psssst. HE wasn’t at the party.
Oh my GOSH. Watching her scroll though her phone to find her picture?? My children are on my screen saver!!!!!!!!
It's telling that the friends/family in that office aren't embracing Soto at all, under the circumstances.
The whole thing is shaky.
I don’t understand why they’re not pounding the pavement looking for her! Going to each store with a flier already done. She knew for at least 3 hours she had been gone all day and none of her friends knew where she was. To be that calm. What help are they providing? Zero!
@@laurapotier9816
I hear you about the time of day that someone finally called 911 for help finding Madeline.
I've got questions for Soto of course, but I've got equivalently pressing questions for Madeline's grandmother (whom reportedly "didn't like" Sterns).
For instance, why didn't Madeline just stay overnight at her grandmother's house after her party (that Soto didn't attend)?
Since Soto's career of choice took her away from the home until late at night, why didn't anyone consider how Madeline would feel going into an empty house at night, but for renters, after her party?
The Aunt who drove her home never thought of Madeline staying with her grandmother instead? They live relatively close, so after "getting a good night's sleep" Soto could've gotten her lazy arse up, retrieved her daughter and drove her to school - after getting McDonald's, of course.
So many questions...
What parent doesn't immediately enter the school for assistance locating their child?
Soto drove away.
Too bad there's not legislation that states that "if a Capital crime involving a child is verifiably recorded identifying the Defendant to a certainty, Speedy due process engages, a Death $entence imposed immediately, 7 days to Appeal & Approve/Deny, Appeal denied equates to the Death $entence commences in 30 days - rain or shine."
Bring the jury. ⚖ 💯🌴🇺🇲
I am sending out my thoughts and prayers and love to her biological father I am really! So very sorry for your loss 😢💔
I "ran away" a couple of times in my early teens (i was always home before breakfast) but my mum would be calling the police if i was gone more than 20 minutes or more than 30 minutes late.
If my sons were more than 10 minutes late in their teens I was calling them none stop until they answered, then calling their friends and my neighbours or anyone I knew and asking people to look out for them if they had ever been longer than an hour I would've been calling the police, luckily my boys always turned up or finally answered their phone or called me back. My 13yr old to this day calls me when he is on his way home from school, youthclub, park, friends houses. My 21 yr old who still lives at home at least sends a text informing me that he will be later than expected or that he won't be home, my other 2 boys have moved out but they are still in contact with me every week on their days off. My daughter is only 3 so she doesn't go anywhere, so if she were to be gone for more than 2 minutes after I have checked the entire house and back garden then I would be on the phone to the police and screaming her name on the street to find her.
What i picked up is that Maddie was apparently asthmatic and not one person when asked about any medical issues mentioned that she was asthmatic and needed an inhaler.
There are far too many RED flags to list and Jenn needs arresting on child neglect, child endangerment, child abuse, obstruction of justice at the very very least.....and from what i have heard about florida law she would be facing felony charges.
What you are seeing in the room Vinnie, is a paralysis due to fear of being found out.
The mom might have diminished capacity, but she was well aware of what was happening to her daughter. She should get a 15yr prison sentence and mandatory mental health assistance. She allowed her daughter to sleep with this guy because the daughter "needed physical touch" as a calming sleep aide.
Stephan was not at the party
Exactly, not him and not Jen. I think the party was only for the teens, because no adults were there. Also, there was no reason for SS to come to the house at the time. It was late.
Came here to say this.
There are a few channels that mention it was mostly adults at the party, that a friend said that Madeline was upset because she had talked about her party for days and hardly anyone came :( It's so odd how both Jenn and SS claimed that Maddie was excited to celebrate "with everyone" but the two main people weren't there. SUS AF
@@laurenmay2098she had 2 friends, the rest were family, mainly adults
I don’t even think she was with Jenn the entire week prior! It would make sense that they would have had off that week (I would have to check their school calendar) but, that is usually when school has winter break AND one of them said in their police interview that she had stayed at the grandmas house most of that last week! And that was her birthday week!
The Mother is obviously involved in her death. She should be hysterical. Any mother would be hysterical.
Now ya got me wondering if the missing 14 year old that the cop mentioned was found 🤷
The swaying back and forth is odd. Also she is trying to answer questions on her appearance and Stefan keeps butting in with his answers.
