Madeline Soto Saga: Two Trial Dates Set For Stephan Sterns' Crimes

The Murder Of Maddie Soto

In this emotionally charged episode we examine the heartbreaking case of 13-year-old Madeline Soto, a young girl whose disappearance and tragic murder in early 2024 shook the Kissimmee community to its core. The man accused of taking her life is Stephan Sterns, her mother’s long-time boyfriend. What investigators uncovered following her death was far more than a simple missing person’s case. Sterns is now accused of years of horrifying sexual abuse, meticulously documented in over 1,500 disturbing images and videos found on his phone.
As Sterns faces two pivotal trials in 2025—one in February for multiple counts of sexual battery and possession of child pornography, and another in September for Madeline’s murder—the community waits for justice to be served. Through detailed accounts, interviews, and police findings, this episode delves deep into the complex and unsettling home life Madeline endured, her relationship with Sterns, and the chilling evidence that points to years of abuse that went unnoticed. Join us as we explore the intricate details of this devastating case and the legal battles that lie ahead, uncovering how one young girl’s life was tragically cut short by someone who should have protected her.
