Newly released police interrogation footage reveals intense questioning of Jennifer Soto and her boyfriend, Stephan Sterns, as investigators pressed for answers in the disappearance and murder of 13-year-old Madeline Soto. Sterns, who initially claimed he dropped Maddie Soto off at school, was confronted with damning evidence—her backpack found in the trash. When authorities arrested him, they also charged him with capital sexual battery and possession of child pornography. The state is now seeking the death penalty for Sterns.
