I had a step dad who was very protective, he wouldn't know my cycle or lay with us kids in our beds. Never ever.
1000% same .
The whole sleeping arrangement is bonkers. Maddie was basically getting trafficked by her own mother.
My dad was very over protecting even down to explaining the zone. Right above the breasts to just below the vajayjay. We did sleep with him often as my mom was the one who ran our family business. Not once did we ever feel uncomfortable or anything he also respected the zone unless we needed a bath or whatever. This is nuts.
My bf will sleep in the same bed as our twin sons if he has to.
@@August_Underground_6669 it depends on the kid's age and if they're related. This situation is just wrong.
As a child I used to get beat with a belt buckle as well as other physical abuse yet as an adult I chose to break the chain and raise my children w/o physical punishment.
I am so sick of the excuse for ADULTS that the reason they commit horrendous crimes is because of their childhood. Conscious choices by adults with full responsibility should rule the day. every day.
My natural father, was mentally abusive I'm 66 yrs old still at least once a week think of it, I'm the eldest of 6 kids, and we had money, sorry I can't write any more, and I'm Very sorry for what you went through, but you are correct it's never to be used as an excuse too hurt your children. Blessed Be.. Marie from the UK 🇬🇧❤️🏴
Right
I an an eager activist against corporal punishment! The emotional consequences are awful besides the fine line with abuse 😖
Same. Id never hit a child. EVER.
Precisely. I also broke the cycle.
Eventually Jennifer Soto will be charged. Charged for many things.
It's hard to prove even though she should have known better but any woman that desperate for a man is a criminal.
From the get go bc, of her cuddling Stephan, & her changing testimony was sus. I believe Mom offed Madelin in a jealous fit.Stephan was happy 2 bury /cover up a potential issue
@@therealz360z7 It's not going to be hard to prove. She dry snitched on herself saying she drugs Maddie and sends her to another bedroom to sleep with her boyfriend who was r@ping her since she was around 8. That is trafficking.
She gave him her daughter!
I don't agree
There's no way mom Jennifer didn't know from the time her daughter was 8 years old that she was being abused! Her whole reaction when her daughter went missing was not normal!
No it sure wasn't. She didn't seem worried about her. Didn't get choked up when she talked about her. Never she'd even one tear! I would have been so frantic, I would have been out looking everywhere for her and couldn't have even stopped looking until I fell over from exhaustion!
Poor little girl, 💔🥲😡😡😡. With this nasty men . RIP 😇🌸🙏🏼
When my son passed away I cried everyday for weeks and NEVER “ran out of tears” Running out of tears is not a thing!
I think ‘running out of tears’ is more of an expression…. It’s not meant to be taken literally.
My daughter passed in 2020. I 100% understand the “running out of tears” expression. I did it. I couldn’t stop crying. Then I went numb inside. I didn’t cry. I sat silent. I was in a weird haze. I didn’t cry. Even when I talked about her. My feelings were gone. I felt nothing. Life felt like it wasn’t real.
It’s a coping mechanism. The brain can’t handle the feelings and it shuts down. It’s very very unhealthy and if a person feels that way they should see a dr/therapist.
she didn't know her daughter passed away in any of the video we have seen her in. apples and oranges.
My daughter passed away when she was 9 of cancer. I was the same as you. Sending love.
@@GrayHughesInvestigates I thought at first that Jen wasn't all there but the more she talked in the first video, I could tell she was intelligent so that wasn't an excuse!
I truly can't believe the one friend is victim blaming and taking up for stephan to the point of saying it was an accident!!! How can you take up for this evil monster in any way!!! Disgusting!
It's murder but he's thinking Stephan didn't premeditate it , it's possible to be both he knew another side to Stephan we never knew so ofcourse it's hard for him to comprehend .
I’ve said it a thousand times on every video I see about this. Stephen was selling those photos of Maddie. This person saying he always had money but no job just helped confirm my theory. I think Jenn was benefiting from the selling of the photos and that’s why she went along with it. It all goes back to money.
MONEY but SEXUAL PERVERSION AS WELL!
I agree with this and not sure if it’s related or not but days apart from this case there was an older man that was caught within that same area for distribution and was apparently inappropriate with several kids in the neighborhood. They found videos of those kids being abused in the drives they recovered. I remember it being linked to a huge ring but can’t remember the name. He dressed like Santa Claus in the neighborhood they said.
@@silenthproductions7830 Perverts often target the kids of single parents & groom them with attention & gifts. “Santa” would be a great cover.
Dark web in order to get cp you have to give original cp in order to stay on the site
@@silenthproductions7830 I heard about that too. Very suspicious
He was staying in the house to abuse Madeline which is why it suited him. He was a very sick evil individual.
And the Mother has to take some responsibility. No Child should be sleeping with a male at Madeline age. And according to people Madeline had clothes in his wardrobe.
All very wrong.
My Father was a Pedophile and beat us his was a Social Worker. It affected my life l had tried to take my own life. I am in my 70s and still feel the pain. 💔
Dear buttie
My spelling check kept changing your name lol. I come from an abusive background..I'm 69. It really changes a child and it's hard to navigate life as an aging person. I finished therapy some time ago. One can never change it out past but I no longer have that holding my life prisoner.
I got to get back to my abuser. And it will affect his life as long as he exists.
Anyway,you were a child. You didn't deserve any of that..my mom was mentally ill. I forgive her .
I don't have to forget my abuser not what he did either. I want to tell you that you are courageous.
I wish you peace and that your mind becomes quieter
I'm sorry, you deserved better.
Buttie, I feel you. Been there, done that, was 5 yrs old when it happened. My abuser is dead & gone, anyone who harms a child like this is a vile coward. I had to trust that God will handle it, and I'm sure that He carried out Justice in His own way. Therapy does help, as does venting those negative feelings & thoughts, by channeling them into something positive, making something lovely. I like to grow flowers, veggies and care for my critters. There is hope for a better day, knowing that no one can ever do that to you again. I pray that you find hope in each new day, God Bless you!
I’m so sorry you’re going through that still.😢
Pedophiles choose professions that give them access to children.
I know you are telling the truth about your experience with your father. I wish there was a way to protect children. My own experience of making reports to DCFS is that they don't do anything and the phone report just makes it worse for the kid.
I cannot believe he responded to a post about a husband sexualizing a daughter possibly, saying not all men are monsters like that, yet HE WAS.
I know!! The way my mouth dropped! 😲😲
Hit dogs will holler smh
He might have been trying to victimize a victim by seeming to empathize with the person.
The fact that Sterns was driving his dad’s car explains why the police had to track his dad’s movements that day as well to exclude the dad as a suspect.
I wonder if he was using his dad‘s car on purpose? Because he knew he was going to do this? Kill the girl?
they weren't tracking his dad's movements. Sterns was driving his dad's care an likely using his dad's phone. It's tracking Stephan, not his father.
and he said it was his car...what a bum
Sounds like he never grew up mentally
Let's blame it on something bs
It's called Arrested Development and a lot of men have this issue though they don't all turn out to be criminals , but they all tend to live in a fantasy world.
Or dudes just weird. Never “mentally growing up” doesn’t account for s3xually molesting an 8 year old for 5 years
At 10 my friend changed forever. And now he lives with addiction.
Stuck at 14/17
"He never worked but had money for expensive things after he moved in with Jenn." He was probably selling the photos of Maddie.
Of course he was!
Bingo
And Jen was profiting off of it too. She’s guilty too.
I'm sure. I can't stand him.
Yep, I think so. R.I.P. sweet Maddie 💜💜💜💜
Jen is guilty that's why she's not talking
or she was advised not to
@GrayHughesInvestigates she's all kind of messed up
I have a hard time to think she had anything to do with it. There’s a part of me that wants to give her something. I think she’s a jerk. But I don’t think she had anything to do with hurting her kid
exactly right and they don't need her to testify against him they have him dead to rights.
@@lankytor6396I’m the same atm I still think she didn’t know what was going on but she should’ve.
Getting Hustler mag for your 13 year old son is abuse very twisted
Thank you for doing the interviews and putting it together for us, Gray. Seeing all four together was eye-opening. What an evil, twisted mess! Poor Maddie. 😢
After hearing these interviews, putting the pieces together, it makes sense. SS is a twisted individual, he will reap what he has sown. Lets pray that Law enforcement did a thorough job, and prosecutes all guilty parties involved. Justice for Maddie!
@@gembearer672 twisted evil nucases colliding
I enjoyed the interviews.
J@@gembearer67
I am really upset Jennifer is not arrested for child abuse.
I hope charges come soon for her.
Sterns is emotionally 13.
A very disturbed 13. The things he was allegedly doing at that age were very abnormal.
Evilly and repulsively so.
SS likely was abused himself at that age. Not an excuse for it, though.
He’s staying in a place where he broke up with someone because his actual relationship was with the little girl😢
Yes and Maddie was happy and her grades were improving then her mom asked SS to come back because she needed Help with her! Why couldn't she get help from her grandma or a lady friend every once in a while if she needed a break that bad!!
@@Teresa-tn4weit seemed that Maddie was a good kid. I'm trying to figure out why this woman couldn't handle anything! She needs meds to sleep, to be awake, to be a mother, to work, she needs to sleep alone so she can get rest. How is sleeping with your 13 year old keeping u from getting rest? I understand that people go through things! I have bipolar disorder, I struggled for years with it, I also raised 4 children and trust me, it wasn't easy! I needed breaks, support, etc. But if I couldn't get it, I just tried my best to make it through. I wouldn't accept help from anyone I didn't trust and I wouldn't have my boyfriend taking on this intimate role with my children. He wouldn't be bathing them, putting them to bed, sleeping with them, babysitting them, none of that. I'll suffer through whatever I'm going through before I accept support from just anyone.
@lizrogers yes you're probably right. He never found a girl his own age when he was a kid. His father sounds like a piece of work too as far as leading a double life.
@@danielleschiazza6172 the lady needed meds for everything lol she just wasn't attached to her kid and it shows
He isn't emotionally 13 he us grown and knew what he was doing to this child this is why he took her life
I think he did groom Jen as well, but I also think she wanted to be groomed. I think the familiarity of "we" is something he conditioned mom to do. She doesn't get a pass. I'm not convinced she's not a sadist. She needs to be punished. Her job was to love and protect her child. Period. I don't give a shit about her mental health issues. She had one job, she either failed or found an accomplice.
Rest in Paradise, Beautiful Madeline 🩷
Thank you for such meticulous coverage, Gray.
As with everything on your channel, excellent Job. Exceptional work.
Thank you 🙂
Maddie did not have a chance. Jen does not deserve the title "mom". There is no way she did not know what was going on. I would NEVER send my child to sleep with a grown man in another room. Then she gives the b.s excuse because of her "anxiety". GTFOH. She needs to be charged and inprisoned the rest of her life. She is just as bad as he is in my opinion.
She said she sent Maddie to sleep in the bed with Stefan bcuz of her anxiety?? That's awful! That also doesn't make sense tho. How would that have helped her anxiety? What a POS! Poor Maddie😢
These interview’s were eye opening, fascinating!! Thanks for putting all of this together
It is ALL heresay (Information that was heard by one person about another that cannot be adequately substantiated.).
@@MM-ik7csYour opinion about someone else is hearsay.
@@MM-ik7cs yes these were interviews of those who knew him. Of course it’s “Hearsay” however isn’t it great that if you want to hear these interviews they are all together right here! It’s wonderful 🩵
@@Dee-ur1hk CLAIMING they knew him. We know people love to inject themselves into cases. We live in an attention seeking society. CZcams and social media proves that clearly.
@@Grammichal Stating a fact is not hearsay. What I said was not opinion. It is fact that everything that they said is hearsay. I even gave the definition from the dictionary!
My friend was 10 when he became addicted to sex. And all from a magazine his friend showed him. It ruined his life. Parents. Keep porn away from your kids as much as you can. You can’t remove an image from your brain. 💔😩
Amen!!!!
So did Ted Bundy! I’ve heard an interview with him.
I agree porn exposure is terrible for young people and should be avoided but it’s not an excuse to murder and child molest… I know someone who had a porn addiction from a young age and never did any of that depraved shit
I think your right! A young mind should not be exposed to that kind of material.
@@Grammichal Keep in mind you may have to take just about everything Ted says about his upbringing/maturation with a grain of salt. Like Ed Kemper, he is super skilled at painting a landscape that appeals to our sensibilities, a very idealistic pov that is incongruent with his real life experiences.
Well one of his friends is obviously on his side and it makes me sick! This guy is disgusting he's trying to stick up for him and theirs all evidence against Stephen Sterns. This guy makes me want to vomit! shame on him!
He gives me the heebie jeebies
I'm on the second guy right now and some of the stuff he's saying isn't sitting right, like he just isn't disgusted enough for me. And he said something like " that's why I've not seen him, he's killed someone" umm not someone, a child, he was raping and murdering a child and recording himself raping her. Wtf?
The guy is probably in denial.
Agree his buddies jerks
Yeah I picked up on it too, I feel like he's a disgusting freak too... "I think he has remorse", "I don't think he was fake crying" "I'm trying to justify what he did"... like why/how could you EVER justify this behaviour? It's just disgusting period.
Maybe Maddy said enough is enough on her 13th birthday he couldnt handle the rejection and srangled her monster
She was going to tell and he knew it.
He didn't wanna get caught and he seemed to forget that CCTV exists. Sloppiest murder ever. I'm usually opposed to the death penalty but not with shit like this.
Or she was pregnant
@@noneyun9943 i thought that too. It’s either she was going to tell or she was pregnant
@@Sandra_Reynolds What do you mean? There's video and photo evidence he had been messing with her for years, over 400 images of her. There's CCTV of him driving around with her dead body in the car, also evidence that he put her in the trunk. She stated in her journal that she wanted to run away to the woods. Do you think this man is innocent???? You're not paying any attention so pipe down.
This happens all the time when the victims threaten to tell. You must be Stephen's mother or a woman who wants to be his penpal romance.
Maddie’s mom should be charged as well.
I’m thinking so as well
After hearing this, it makes me think Maddie was most likely pregnant and he had to get rid of her
or he thought she was
The autopsy didn't confirm she was pregnant.
Or she aged out and he had another child lined up.
@@KimberlyBishh her cycle would probably be irregular at barely 13, so perhaps she thought she was pregnant.
@@KimberlyBishh they might not be telling us everything as disgusting as it is. Is the case televised?
I’ve been waiting for someone to checkout his family and how he was brought up 👍 good interview
It is ALL heresay (Information that was heard by one person about another that cannot be adequately substantiated.).
I really hate when the parent's childhood comes out, as if we all had perfect childhoods. We didn't. But as a Mom, I knew who was in my house. I couldn't protect them from everything. But I knew who was sleeping with my kids!! It's my opinion. But parent and parent figures need to be held accountable period. Mom has anxiety, that's her reason to let bf sleep with daughter? BS
I don’t understand why you hate it when we learn more about the childhoods involved. What is there to fear from learning more? What happens in our childhoods impacts us and those around us. It’s relevant to me.
Exactly. I had a rough childhood! I was physically, emotionally and verbally abused by my step father, my dad was abusive towards my mom, I went through a lot but I would never use that as an excuse to do horrible things.
@@threeofcats5803it may be relevant but it isn't an excuse! Lots of people had it rough growing up and they didn't grow up to be horrible human beings.
Anxiety due to truth..
Maybe Stearns was selling images to finance his nerdy hobbies and Adderall addiction. I hope they figure out who was buying from him
I haven’t heard this theory yet but it makes so much sense!
This man might need to have his children checked by a doctor! Stefan has been near his children! Scary thought!
Thank you for sharing❤️🙏
Strangulation is extremely personal. Either by way of a bondage gone wrong or intent to kill. Something so wrong. His entire family scene is a nightmare.
Dr Brucato said he k-lled her throttling her throat DURING the sex act. It was being recorded too.
I think he bought her a birthday present and she denied him sex. Maybe she said she was on her period and he knew different and got angry thinking she owed him .
I have no sympathy for him he deserves everything he gets while incarcerated and more he knew exactly what he was doing maybe his Mom can sue someone else to pay fir his Attorney ..
I’d bet money the grandmother kicked him out. That was a townhouse for Jenn to raise her daughter and make income renting out the spare bedrooms. The grandmother seems like a smart lady. Likely the reason he wasn’t welcome at the birthday party or at the townhouse. I’ll bet grandma did not know he was slithering back at night to sleep there.
The house belonged to JS's father, not her mother. I believe they are divorced. The father lived there with them for a long time and all three of them were sleeping together at that time so I don't think he cared. I think he gave the townhouse/apartment to Jenn.
I don’t give a shit! Ain’t no way I would not notice weird shit. Jenn pushed it out the way she didn’t want to accept it
She had her daughter sleep with him. Not only did she know what was going on but she gave him her daughter.
J is one effed-up chick
She couldn’t even admit it was them in the photo the police showed her. She KNEW!
All these interviews with these Grown men are lacking empathy in their tone when talking about this child. Just saying
Probably because they were also children when these things happened. And now after what he has been charged with, they have no more empathy for him..
Really disturbing.
Men are many times matter of fact, not emotional like women. Do you want them to be sobbing or something?
@@beanj580 real men can show their emotions without hitting a wall, bro.
@@kerrilea73 I'm not a bro , however why are we criticizing innocent people because they don't show emotions the way we want them to?
I said the very same thing when he said reality keeps setting in i said yeah SS reality sets in on what you had done to that sweet angel Maddie AND I pray it eats at your sick mind for the time you have left here on earth.
His friends seem to be immature goofballs also
Seems to be how the 40 year Olds act and think ish
I thought that about #2 and #3, #1 seemed pretty credible. I had to turn if off during #3.
Stern's could have shared his c p with these guys...they're strange, They seem to have arrested development just like their incarcerated friend.
@@KimberlyBishh
Not the first guy. I’m only 1/2 though #2.
IMO ss thought he was in a relationship with Maddy.
Nah, but maybe he tried to make MS think that
That started when she was 8?!?! 🤢🤮
@@LoremLipsumzright and some of these guys are like he was so normal...what??? Like no one had a ick feeling from him?
@@the-only-soniaThese types of people specialize in deception.
yes because he is sick
I think the mom knows he killed her daughter. She is afraid of being held responsible because letting him SNUGGLE in same bed ALL NIGHT with her daughter and I think he used that on her to convince her she had to cover for him, and it is just unspeakable what this sweet child had to endure for Years!!
He gave her drugs No doubt
That's an ideal situation for him that Jen takes A LOT of medication. "Just send Maddie to me and I will take care of her - you just rest." / IMO, This creep probably tried to give her his "birthday present" and she resisted and said she would tell someone what he has been doing. Being thirteen, she was growing up and realized she could voice her abuse to others, since she got no satisfaction from her mother. She was getting older and he was losing control, which was a threat.
Plus her and Jen weren’t getting along so he could play nice guy to Maddie which allowed him to be even closer. All of the friends saying Jen was telling Maddie she would have to leave once she turned 18. It’s just horrendous this poor girl had no peace or safety in her life.
🎯 100%
I agree. They did find lube in a bag in a room he was staying in.
You cannot substantiate this.
@@MM-ik7cs
Can’t substantiate what??
It was called “Down Low Masturbation Cream.” Vinnie Politan read it from documents today.
The way the friend said SS thought he was smarter than everyone else, & took martial arts, etc…sounds a whole lot like Brian K. (Idaho 4 killer)
Jennifer must've been desperate to date Stearns in the first place
If Maddie was pregnant Jen would have covered it up that he was the dad whether she knew all along or would've found out.
She called the room they slept in together "room #4" & Maddie did not have her own room which is also weird & sus.
💯
Maddie didn’t have her own room?? That’s super weird, I definitely want to hear mom’s explanation on that!!
So they had 4 bedrooms but Maddie didn't have her own room?
There were roommates, she rented out rooms to others and Stephan stayed in one of those rooms, room 4 apparently
The rooms all had a number on the door, that's why it was called room 4.
She was strangled ...
yes, these interviews were just after sterns was arrested.
That hasn't been confirmed yet
Autopsy will not be released. Lots of COD has been said. The one before this one was head trauma. That should be a wake up call of not to believe everything unless it comes from LE, court documents or the DA.
This dude has way more friends than I do, yikes…
My husband and I have been together 13 years since my daughter was 3. He made sure she had her own bed when we stayed at his house. My daughter would occasionally come into our bed in the middle of the night and he would go lay on the couch. He still sleeps on the couch if our daughter or my daughter wants to sleep in our bed. The ONLY time he has ever slept with our daughter was when she was a baby (she wouldn’t sleep unless she was laying on his or my chest as a baby).
1:17 So Josh part 2 is interesting his comment about his pig friend and Jen being kinky and how maybe all 3 of them are together!! As if that baby child had a fukn choice.
Yeah all these friends sound sus...... Especially
Josh... He especially is ready to bad mouth Jenn but not stephen and Somehow he has it in his head that this child had a choice.
It just confirms my suspicion that ninety percent of men are seriously creepy seriously suspect.
Yea wow, sounds like Josh doesn't see a difference between an adult and a child which is a red flag. Birds of a feather flock together!
Glad I'm not the only one who thought Josh sounded sus.
@@KimberlyBishh yeah I mean one of them openly admitted SS would share child corn in a folder with them and yet none of them thought “this is beyond fucked up”…. Weirdos the lot of them
I have worked with children who have been abused and they have disclosed to me what has been happening for years. They were often worried they would get into trouble if they spoke up. Also the shame or not being believed. It’s heartbreaking. It seems MS didn’t have the kind of relationship with her mother that she could talk to. Her mother made her feel she was nothing but trouble off she was threatening to kick her out when she reached 18. Very likely she thought she wouldn’t be believed.
Jenn using the term "We" the way she does, is done in a attempt to sound more involved as a parent then she is/was. I know to many lazy parents, that use the "We" term a lot when I know they weren't involved in the topic they are discussing. Whether she knew or was involved only time will tell.
I feel like she was trying so hard not to look like a bad mom. Like the correcting of the color of shorts . Or the she talked to maddie about the party and her gifts etc.
That is exactly what I thought!
It's suspect that he even would have taken her to school that morning in the first place. MS's friends said he never took her to school. Both SS and JS playing it off as if it wasn't an unusual thing.
Imo, in his mind, he was in a relationship with Madeline. Jen was the secondary person to him. He targeted her to get to Madeline, he kept coming back to Jen because of Madeline, and ultimately he killed her to keep her. Jen was a cover, a tool. And i think Jen knew that.
Truest statement said on here yet
I do not agree with the Jen knowing. Everything else though.
I completely disagree…I don’t think for a New York second he thought that…I think he was an evil perverted man who took what he could…whenever it please him. This line of thinking is utter garbage as of that’d be an excuse. He no more thought that than the man in the damn moon. He was a sick predator, I doubt VERY seriously he had some romantic notion he was in some kind of relationship with her…wrong on every level.
The fact that he thinks all adult females look like a 70 year old man is disturbing. Preteen interests and relates to preteens. Who the hell would date a man like that, Jen?
Thanks for putting them all in one spot, that is very helpful. I thought about these calls while hearing the details coming out in the 800+ page discovery. A lot of dots being connected.
Why is his “friend” referring to this GROWN MAN as “kid”?
He's talking about when they were kids.
I believe he was referencing the time he knew Stefan from ages to 13-17. So yeah they were young boys growing up at the time
No.
He referred to him as a kid as an adult.
@@Christine-kc5oi
Yes and specifically what kink? What might that tell us about JS and what she might be willing to let SS do and even join him in doing?
Hey, you look great on Vinnie! I don't think he'd keep inviting you back if you weren't! ♥️🤗🌻
Mom let her sleep with a grown man. She is so guilty for so many reasons
I believe he thought he had to kill her to stop her from letting their intimate relationship out of the bag
Wow. Blown away by these interviews. Can't put my phone down. Great job!
It is all hearsay (Information that was heard by one person about another that cannot be adequately substantiated.).
It seems that the friend with the “ normal “ not chaotic family noticed things that were worrisome or disturbing more so than the friend who sounds like he also had a bit of a chaotic family. It seems they were both looking at the Sterns family through different lenses.
I believe Jenn strangled her after an argument, she then had him dump her body. Mom has known about everything all along.
💔
That's gonna be his defense for the murder.
I also think that Jen did something to Maddie during a fight or argument. Now they're covering up for each other because this goes much deeper than we think.
😂
Sick, sick, sick! He's always been screwed up!
If Jen didnt know Jen darn well shouldve.Stephan was SAing her since she was 8??!!Thats 4 f ing years!!! Despicable!!!. She shouldve been way more attentive to Maddie!!
POS, Began Abusing Maddie At The Age 8 Years Old!
Maddie Soto was 8 years 3 months when he started the abuse. That's in the police discovery. The facts matter. Let's not soften the details.
HIS posts are creepy, disturbing, childish, sick...damn, you name it.
She definitely didn't OD. Maddie was strangled. 😢
Yeah, that is just the latest flavor. A short time ago we were told it was head trauma. Other popular ones were drugged, botched abortion used for a snuff film. Tons of rumors and speculation and wild flights of imagination. A lesson could be learned here, WAIT for LE, court documents to give the facts. You cannot rely on rumors.
Maddie was strangled but it’s also possible she was drugged prior to that. Her body was still limp when the parking garage CCTV filmed him putting Maddie in the trunk. She was seen by several people seatbelted into the car with her head slumped to the left. 😢
He went from having 202 friends on fb to 154. I wonder if those other people know what he did. Most of them Disney employees
I popped by from your spot on Vinnies show. Looking forward to exploring your channel
Schools calling home to report absenteeism of any kind is fairly standard. It’s done by automatic-call systems.
But her school calls at the end of the day now that's strange.
That is weird. I mean whats the sense in that. @@KimberlyBishh
My kid’s schools call at the end of the day too.
My kids school calls and texts by 1030 am . If it's at the end of the day, what good is that?
My son's school doesn't call at all.
?? he was already charged with murder...and they said she was strangled... no drug overdose.
Before strangled it was head trauma. Also the drug overdose, botched abortion, on and on. None have any proof to back it.
I was thinking she didn’t want him touching her anymore and said she’d tell. So he shut her up forever :( and not to be mean but Jen seems maybe a bit slow? Or easy prey for sterns. I’m not in agreement with most at this point as far as her being arrested.
I think this was exactly what happened. She threatened to tell. I also agree that Jenn has a cognitive delay but STILL.. she should have known better.
Edit: I still think she should be charged. Sending your child to sleep with your boyfriend is not okay.
I think the same about Jen. I think she just didn’t have a clue but the footage where the police are asking questions about Madeline in Jens mums office- she starts side eying him. It looks to me like it had started to dawn on her
@@Nous520 yes, I thought she may have at that moment thought he had something to do with Maddie’s disappearance (during that interview)
@@bees.857 imagine all the things we don’t know? That poor kid…so since they are seeking the dp does that mean there for sure will be a trial or can he just plead guilty and be done with it? I wonder how big Jen’s family is.
She seemed to be on drugs. AND WHAT medication did they give that poor baby every night???...💜 R.I.P. Sweet Angel.
Gray, the autopsy would show if there were any type of drugs in Maddie's body.
And or if she was pregnant. Many people think she was.. 🤨
@@beckylynn209 I guess we'll have to wait & see what is presented by the medical examiner during the trial....
Toxicology results take some time to complete.
@@beckylynn209 It’s reasonable to suspect they might’ve at least thought she was pregnant. At barely 13 her cycles would probably be irregular anyway.
His "spicy Latina from Disney" is Jennifer. 😵💫🥴
She is hardly spicy! 🤢
@@danielleschiazza6172 oh, I know...she is gross.
Another great and veryyyyy interesting video, Gray. 👏🏽 Thank you so much for all the time you take out of your own life to make these videos for us. ❤
My parents were incredibly over-protective of me. My dad told me that I did a great job as the trailblazer, so that’s why they loosened up with my younger sisters. I was the lucky one. My own daughter is just naturally like me. Nature, nurture or both? 🤔
If u are close with ur children, very little gets past that u don't notice. Even if ur not really close, I believe if u at least CARE, u would see the red flags that I am SO SURE were there! The body cam footage of them talking to police at the initial reporting of Maddie missing, tells a lot about Jen IMO. She acted in a hurry, like she was bothered. The way she kept moving shuffling her feet with no tears whatsoever.. smdh idk I think she knew he did something, whether she knew EXACTLY what happened or just suspected, I think she knew
The friend does not have anything to say about his one meeting with Maddie. As if she is not relevant to the situation and his friends' abhorrent behavior. I think I could have found one good thing to say about her or something about the interaction between Maddie and SS. Just an observation!
To be fair, the focus of the conversation is on the dude. If he only had 1 interaction with Maddie, it would be weird for him to focus enough on her to make such a comment. He's talking about what he knows.
@darlingdeb7010 I agree! However, I thought when he talked about that one meeting, it seemed to me that he was about to say more but held back.
This case hit me hard. My mom’s boyfriend was amazing and he took care of us
Jenn Soto has paid the ultimate price for putting her child in a vulnerable position and allowing Sterns to have the contact he did with the sleeping arrangements. Although, I think Jenn is not quite there mentally and extremely naive, I also believe Stephan would have done what he did even if he wasn’t in harms way. He is clearly manipulative and his lies come across with so much ease it’s scary, pure evil.
Poor Madeline.
Like I’ve Said Before, “Jennifer Is Crazy Like A Fox.”
@-ZoZo-86
I think it's MS who paid the ultimate place. The more I hear about and see and hear JS, the more suspicious I become and I was suspicious of her behavior from the start. Just listened to one of SS's friends saying S and J were into some really "kinky" stuff makes me more suspicious. What does that mean and how extreme?
@@Dragon-yg3pm Jenn is definitely not the smartest tool in the shed and it wouldn’t surprise me if SS made elaborate stories up to ‘boast’ to his friends when his real kink was children. Unless she is charged with anything she may be a victim herself, who knows.
@@Dragon-yg3pm I replied but I don’t know where my comment went ☹️ yes agree Jenn isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed. Also think there’s a big possibility that Sterns boasted to his friends about his ‘kinks’ when in reality his target was children. If Jenn is arrested and is then known to be a part of this- I agree, she should be punished, until then; who knows.
@@-ZoZo-86
Until then we do the same thing we did with SS, we look at her, we look at the evidence, we look at what is being revealed about her and we come to reasonable conclusions and wait for more evidence and we Don't let people gloss over her incomprehensible conduct. People decide somewhere in their minds someone is innocent and they bend everything and ignore all signs of guilt or potential guilt. Where are her friends and family speaking out about her innocence? Nowhere.
I haven’t seen the entire timeline but is it possible Jen was jealous of the relationship with him and her daughter and she killed Maddie and he is covering for Jen? If she is unhinged?
Thanks For doing this because I definitely only saw two interviews.
I'm thinking when the story all comes out we will learn he killed her because she was pregnant.
It certainly would make sense of the why now...
I agree. Maddie friend already made the statement she was late in January
@@Karen-ji5cu I thought it was February but yep......
@ninacorley7471 the friend said Jan, Maddie died in Feb.
and if she was pregnant....that will be another charge
Great interviews and great interviewing.
Oh wow dad did not want to be around his family that's a big red flag now.
My father was arrested in 1965 for being a peeping Tom. I was 5 and my younger brother was less than 1 year. My parents had been married for 5 years at that point. He was an incessant womanizer and remained so through the 80s. I never experienced anything creepy with him and he occasionally made comments about my friends in high school being attractive. He's slso a malignant narcissist who doesn't "like" women, they're objects. He had mommy issues, but would never admit to it.
Wow. I know that type! Peeping and mommy issues and infidelity.
Maybe you were just so used to being around him you didn't notice the creepy. Comments about your child's high school friends being attractive is pretty creepy.
The farm Gate was open to where he placed her. I think he drove in and the BAMBOO cut his tire. I’m on a farm bordering Bamboo. I’ve seen it Split open Tractor tires.
I have a Step-up Dad. He protects me to this day. He taught me to read the room and watch out for weirdos.
Love that and your word for him.
hi grey! looking forward to this
My theory is SS was jealous of Maddie and she was maturing.
Agree.
and she probably liked someone at school
Always on top of things, aren't ya, Gray?
Ok I'm not buying this caller. The one before Josh.
Why do you say that? Stories are too far-fetched you think? I didn't know what to make of it. Some things sounded a bit embellished.
@@Katz_Pajamas exactly. I think Josh was the more believable one than that guy. And actually the 3rd guy sounded alright too. The first one yeah he just seemed way off and when asked about times he would fluctuate, oh I don't know, the whole case is just disgusting. My heart gets more involved than it should probably. I wake up in the middle of the night to check phone for updates and on Sebastian also. Anyway have a good day!
Even if my children come into my room at night my significant other will go sleep on the couch to allow my kids to sleep with me. I’ve had several talks with my kids about what areas are private and for them only. I also advised them that if an adult or older child tells you to keep something secret that’s when you know you have to tell me. I promised them they would never have to be around those people again and that I would protect them. Even if that person threatens them they still need to tell. They know how wrong it is for someone else to do anything whether touching or looking at their private areas. Or showing theirs.
The fact this mom willingly let her daughter sleep with her boyfriend is disheartening. There is no excuse. I can’t wrap my head around the fact that she didn’t know what was happening. I’m really disappointed that is where this story seems to be going. She was failed in every way.
Many perverts target single mothers so they can give special attention to the children and groom them for just this type of behavior.
Even as a teen this murderer wasn’t a weirdo…he was breaking the law as a peeping tom. Police should have been called then.
Her teacher gave an interview about how Madeline generally was at school and he said she had sleepy days where she would put her head on her arms on her desk, then would have periods of being perfectly fine. That says to me she was being drugged for nefarious reasons, fine days were when SS wasn’t staying with them. You can’t rule out that Jen might have killed her and SS helped her with disposing of her body.
Or she was being assaulted at night by him and wasn't getting any sleep.
You slayed on Vinnie 💪 Good job!
Thanks Gray, these insights have been very valuable, thank you to these guys for speaking. All of this detail must be painful for them, knowing what has transpired now ❤ This demon hurt so, so many people
After info came out indicating that her cause of death was strangulation I wonder if a bondage s@x act went too far. When the JonBenet case happened forensic examiners wrote about abusers who choke their child victims (for horrible reasons I won't describe) and sometimes it goes too far. I wonder if something like this happened accidentally and then this monster had to scramble around and get rid of the body. I wouldn't be surprised if the videos were not a money making operation, so I kinda doubt he would get rid of his profit toy unless it was an accident. But who knows...RIP poor Maddie
This was no accident.
Just speculation. When the trial happens I'm sure more of the forensic evidence will come out. No matter what, this monster is going down...
I think you're right. That seems like the most logical thing. Apparently ppl that do that sort of thing upload "content" to essentially trade for more also. Seems too sloppy to be planned.
Hello Gray.
I'm watching you live on COURT TV right now.
You just solved the time of death in my opinion. It makes complete sense she was drugged up, but alive, and that's why the security guard didn't question anything. He probably said "she's sleeping", like out of it, just kinda looking tired, definitely not deceased. And probably strangled her on the top level of parking garage at 9 a.m. & after that he placed her into the trunk 4 hours & than disposed of the body.
Love your channel.
You stand alone with your style of reporting & delivering.

No disrespect to his friends but men are not too good at picking up that weird vibe they give out that would make a woman feel uncomfortable.
either are a lot of women
@@GrayHughesInvestigates that’s so true yes. Jenn has proved that!
I had a brother in law that knew my cycle and for some reason
All women in the house had a syncronize cycle
My reapectful brother in law knew to stay away for his own safety
I think it's God's way of sparing everyone, especially men from constant pms around home,by allowing us women to synchronize with our cycles .😊
Pretty sure he only had to know the signs from one woman. It’s common knowledge that women in a residence usually fall into sync with their cycles. Health anomalies aside, of course.
I find it upsetting to hear women being described as over emotional or out of control because of their cycle.
It's not unusual for multiple females living in close proximity to have the same cycle!
