Army Major Michael Stockin was a doctor at Madigan Army Medical Center, JBLM, where service members trusted him to help manage chronic pain.

Instead, dozens of male patients later accused him of inappropriate and abusive examinations—many saying Stockin used both his medical authority and military rank to make them believe the contact was medically necessary.

In this episode, Margot walks through the investigation, the military charges, Stockin’s court-martial, the impact on his victims, and the ongoing FTCA claims against the Army.

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses sexual abuse in a military medical setting.

On June 30th, 2026, Bart Diguglielmo and Melissa Payne’s paths crossed while looking for a parking spot at Walmart.

Their encounter ended with Melissa shooting Bart one time in the abdomen. Bart died as a result of that one shot. 

The headlines made it sound simple; Melissa shot Bart over a parking spot, but that’s not what happened. 

Two months after the shooting, the Broward County Prosecutor’s Office publicly announced they would not be charging Melissa, because the video evidence was clear, Melissa Payne had Stand Your Ground Immunity.

Join Margot as she breaks down the Walmart confrontation and the immunity decision that ultimately kept the case out of court. 

Read the Stand Your Ground Immunity Memo.

In Part 1, we followed the disappearance of Maya Millete, the breakdown of her marriage, and the increasingly disturbing evidence investigators uncovered in the months after she vanished.

In Part 2, the case finally moves from investigation to prosecution.

Margot covers Larry Millete’s arrest, the evidence prosecutors said proved Maya was murdered despite her body never being found, the years of delays that kept the case from reaching a jury, and the long-awaited 2026 trial, that lasted several weeks and finally delivered a verdict. 

Sadly, while Maya is still missing, the legal question of what happened to her has finally been answered.
