The Murder Of Maddie Soto

“She Was Ice Cold” – The Chilling Phone Call That Changed the Maddie Soto Case


Listen Later

In this gripping deep dive, we explore the disturbing details surrounding the murder of 13-year-old Madeline “Maddie” Soto and the man accused of killing her—Stephan Sterns. Through newly released 2025 jailhouse phone calls between Sterns and his parents, we hear the chilling moment he admits to finding Maddie’s lifeless body and discusses her death in hauntingly casual terms. With the public now hearing his voice for the first time, Sterns' words paint a disturbing picture of regret, denial, and a fatal awareness of the death penalty he may soon face. This episode examines how those calls flipped the case upside down.

We’ll also break down the latest forensic evidence revealed by investigators, including the cadaver dog alert in Sterns’ car and surveillance footage that prosecutors say disproves his original alibi. Combined with the digital evidence pulled from Sterns’ phone and Google accounts—allegedly containing years of sexually abusive material involving Maddie—the case against him has only grown stronger. Hear how the prosecution is building a timeline they believe proves premeditated murder and how Sterns’ own shifting story may be his downfall.

Finally, we look ahead to the courtroom battles already in motion—from defense motions to suppress key evidence to the fight over whether this capital case should play out in public or behind closed doors. With the murder trial scheduled for later this year and the state pushing hard for the death penalty, the Maddie Soto case continues to unravel in ways no one saw coming. Subscribe now as we bring you inside one of Florida’s most harrowing and high-profile murder investigations.
