39:18 Were those pornographic drawings made by Maddie, as stated in this report? Others have said in the comments her killer Stefan Sterns made those sketches. If that is the case, @CourtTV got it very wrong and should post a correction here in the video description or comments. I feel those drawings are far more likely to be the work of a paedophile/child sex killer, than his young victim.
Appreciate that you/GTC can always be counted on to keep the focus on Maddie . . . factual focus. You never lose the sense that that's what is most important. Justice for Maddie. 🐻
Hearing him say she was too young to have crushes and date boys AND be sexually active is DISGUSTING knowing what he was doing to her for YEARS. stole her childhood, her trust, and stole her very life. Despicable.
@@kitlee172 why else would they be asking about her menstrual cycle or lack there of? And I’m gonna put my tinfoil hat on so pardon me for a few seconds… OK I’m back I tend to believe that there is a horrific, very expensive video file swimming around in webs somewhere of this evil, monstrous loss of life(s).
And she did NOT want to press charges!!! 😮 That blew me away! She seriously asked the police to NOT press charges!!! I agree with others, she needs to be locked away in the psych ward.
I want the mother in jail ASAP. And I notice with this killer Stephen Sterns and the Delphi murderer, go into prison a little overweight but when it's court date, they've are significantly skinny!🧐 I wonder why do they lose weight so much weight? They don't feel bad when harming a child but in prison, they do?
If she was so disconnected from reality, she should have found some place better and safer for Maddie. Jenn’s parents, Maddie’s dad, something! I don’t believe for a second Jenn had no idea what was happening. I believe Maddie was a buffer. Jenn had the ‘relationship’ without any of the work. She offered up Maddie. No woman is stupid enough to believe nothing is happening when you have a grown man in bed with a young girl.
BRAVO Court TV for inviting Gisela to the conversation once again! No one does true crime better. So proud to be a member of the Grizzly True Crime community. Justice for Madeline. This precious child was left unprotected by most of the adults closest to her. She deserved better.
@@ThriveCollective1188that’s the phrase that kept running through my head when they played that clip too! It was so disgusting and creepy coming from him🤮🤬
Gisela is a well-researched professional with a giant heart who doesn’t beg for money to make her channel thrive and alive - unusual, yet necessary human qualities in this true crime space. She knows every inch of this case and brings us together as a community in a respectful way to explore the facts together. Thank you for having her on! - Proud to be Grizzly. 🐻
It infuriates me that Jenn has always been so selfish, playing the victim and using her mental health to be so weak. I know plenty of people who live with bipolar, depression, anxiety who work hard to push past it and live a productive life while protecting their children. They don’t just take drugs that blunt them and hide their head in the sand
You've got that right. I'm a Mom with PTSD, post partum depression, and anxiety and I have chosen a combination of therapy, diet, exercise, and minimal medication to handle my symptoms. My son's safety, health, and happiness always comes first. I'm lucky enough to be a SAHM and I make sure that my son eats healthy, has play dates with his cousins, goes to the playground, and the public library every week. My son is showered with love, attention, and affection from both of his parents. Medication cannot solve mental health issues all by itself. It takes therapy to overcome the trauma along with exercise and having a purpose. My purpose is to be the best Mom that I can to my son so he can live a happy and healthy life. I am also an alcoholic and I've been sober for almost 5 years. IMO Jenn uses medication to spend her time sleeping instead of trying to heal her trauma through therapy. It's a lot easier to hide from your trauma than it is to face it and do the work to heal from it. I'm not a mental health professional and I am only speaking from my personal experience.
@@snowwhite2524 thank you for being a great mom and putting your child first. Sending ❤️ from me to you I may have some ADD/ADHD but got through A BS in Nursing School by making sure I exercised and stayed active. I stopped taking meds for depression because they didn’t seem to help. Nature soothes my soul. I live within a few hours of the beautiful Mountains of the PNW
Her mom said never trust a man, yet she sends her daughter to sleep with a man, even when they were broken up. She was afraid of an eventual Woody Allen situation yet she took no mesures to protect her child. She is not even outraged, doesn't degrade him. That says alot. Would also like to know why she told Maddie she will disown her at 18. This woman deserves no immunity, she should be in jail for child endangerment at least.
Right!? A lot of her statements contradict herself. Saying her mom said never trust a man, yet she says I guess I was too trusting. Then worried about Stephen running away with her daughter when she turns 18 but tells her she will disown her at 18. That really opens up the possibility of Stephen doing the exact same thing! She would have nowhere to go and that would give Stephen an excuse to leave with her. She also says I believe the sexual stuff but didn't believe he would do anything evil to her. Ummm the sexual stuff is him doing evil things to her. Why doesn't she see it that way?
Every SINGLE word…..I agree! The only emotion came from the visual evidence that police showed her, and even at that she still thought he had ONLY SA on Maddie, surely not MURDER her!🤬🥹
@@progers018 I agree with you. Jenn is very messed up, and should be charged with child endangerment, IMO. I believe her own history includes SA when she was a child. Her mother had several relationships after her parents separated. In many cases like that those children become very protective of their own children. This case is tragic.
@@shaleniramsahai5782 the only reason she was afraid of a woody Allen outcome is because she knew what was happening, the same reason she told Maddie she’d disown her at 18. She was jealous that her bf liked Maddie more, rather than being repulsed and angered by the fact he was assaulting her child. She knew. I guarantee she knew.
@@kathrynkrieger7644 exactly, bc she thinks all men are like this anyway, so why not give him access to her daughter . Disgusting but I think that's her logic and
Okay that Woody Allen comment has squashed any lingering doubt I had about Jen’s involvement. That, and the “not evil” comment. She knew. She absolutely knew!
Then in another interview 2 days before this, she wasn’t sure he should be charged for the SA! She wanted him to walk out of there the night he was arrested
Jennifer Soto offered her daughter up on a silver platter to that paedophile, to do his worst - and he did. For years she let that creep go to bed with her precious, defenceless little girl, and have full, unsupervised access to her. It is plainly obvious she knew he was sexually abusing Maddie, and she was clearly absolutely fine with it. Jennifer Soto actively enabled her child's rape and murder, she must get proper jail time for her criminal child neglect. Her crocodile tears in front of police are all for herself. She's a poor excuse for a mother. Child neglect is child abuse, and this is some of the worst category. Make an example of her - prosecute and lock her up! Bad enough she opened up their home to that lazy parasite who contributed nothing (Madeline told her counsellor he ate all their food, and made her feel uncomfortable). That alone is a red flag that Madeline's needs/wishes were zero priority to her mother. Why did she let him move in at all? What the hell did Jennifer Soto even get from that relationship? Sterns spent no money on them, in fact he was a drain on their family resources, and was even suspected of stealing from them, eg Maddie's birthday cash (he made a habit of this, he stole money and jewellery from his parents too). Jennifer obviously didn't even want to sleep with him - she pushed that chore onto her innocent child. She's obviously one of those pathetic women who must have a boyfriend at any cost, for appearance's sake. She can't bear to be single for 2 minutes, even when being single is a far better option than dating a man who is not only a creepy misfit and loser, but is abusing and endangering your child!
Me too! Was giving her benefit of the doubt of being uneducated and dumb but that sure changed my view too 100% turn! She saw her daughter as a sex rival and his sick!!!! I am horrified 😮😫😳
As someone who works with survivors of SA for 2 decades I know one thing for sure: lots of abuse can only happen, because the mothers allow it to happen. They don't only know what is going on, they send their daughters to do the acts they don't feel like doing. Jenn Soto talked in her interview about Stephan being into certain practices she didn't like, and that that was one of the reasons their relationship crumbled. But when her daughter SHOWED her that she was bleeding from there, she created an obstipation excuse, and just got her more medication. Jenn Soto shows and expresses very clearly, that she doesn't see the activities between her 9, 10, 11, then 12 year old daughter and her grown-up boyfriend as "something bad" (besides of it being a risk for her relationship). That reminds me of a (now deceased) friend, whose mother caught her husband r-ing their at that point 10 year old daughter, slammed the door shut, and later hissed at her daughter "You don't want me to be happy! Now you're even taking my husband away from me!". Cases like this happen way more, than many people are aware of. And to (almost) every long-term abuse situation belongs a mother, who knows about it or at least suspects something. And I think that it's really time to get women out of the victim bubble, and hold them fully accountable as the second perpetrator in a situation like this.
@elle-iza I can't agree more. That is so well said. This must change. Putting this mother in some sort of victim role makes me sick to my stomach. I hope that they actually really know this. If nothing happens to JS, I have no words to describe yet the horror that would be. Much less sending that message out to other victims this is happening too! Play the idk poor me. We'll everyone who's seen it knows exactly what I mean! Complete Justice for Madeline🌄🕊
Please don't blame moms all the time. My daughter was SA'd while at a sleepover at a friend's house. I went to the house, met the parents, talked for awhile with them to get a feel for who they were. On her second sleepover that creep assaulted my daughter at barely 13. I did not know at all. I didn't learn about it until months later. It was proven in a court of law that he assaulted 4 young girls but only had to serve 3 years in the local jail. The mother doesn't always know, that's a fact!!
Jenn cared more about SS than Maddie. Jenn loves her meds more than Maddie. RIP Maddie, you didn’t deserve the mother you had. You didn’t deserve this flabby monster’s abuse!
AGREE! I'd also like to add that Jenn loves HERSELF more than Maddie. SS is so DISGUSTING not only for what he did, but he is just creepy and GROSS to look at! That poor beautiful little girl never had a chance! I just want to slap some sense into Jenn. She acts like she is so stupid and she's not. Neglectful, emotionless, careless, and a sorry excuse for a mother, but stupid she is not.
She literally victim blamed Maddie when talking about the woody Allen scenario. She stated “where the stepdaughter falls for the…..”. Then she corrected herself when she realized she was blaming Maddie. This woman despised her daughter.
@@Jesus-x3d yep, didn't even attend her own daughter's birthday party, what parent doesn't attend their own child's birthday party....she despised Madeline.
exactly AND she admitted to cancelling a $300 botox appointment the day Maddie went "missing". How does a part time worker that needs roomates afford that? I think she was getting paid for it. She was aware and in on it for the money in my opinion.
@@djohny-ne3ggI heard on one of the channels I follow that the property actually belongs to Jennifer’s dad and he’s the one who rents out the rooms, as a matter of fact she paid him rent. That’s why there was not a room for Maddie, just that area in the living room or something like that. Perhaps if she had her own room she could have locked her creepy mother and her creepy boyfriend out. Just a sad story all around.
Grizzlies in the house! Vinnie's House! My favorite two true crime investigators/ analysts! I've been a fan of Vinnie's since the OJ murder case in '94!

Love Trisha in Texas! ❤🎉
The woody Alan comment seems like she is jealous of her daughter. She is worried her daughter will steal her man 😢 Maddie didn’t have anybody on her side
How does everybody see Stephan as "Jenn's man". She hasn't sleep with him in 2 years , admits she didn't like sex w him. Sends him off to sleep w her daughter 30 minutes after she gets to the home. Where is the "jealousy"? This is a true life horror story , not a romance novel. Stop saying she was jealous. She was lazy and stupid, drugged up and criminally negligent. NOT jealous.
@@jh-is8nq SHE was jealous though. she wanted him in her life no matter what. he's a bum yet she was planning on bringing him back and helping him. her words. she only got upset when the cop said "they were having a sexual relationship" . she wasn't upset that he was abusing her or k1lled her, btu she was upset that he had chosen Maddie over her.
@@jh-is8nqall those could be true, but I think she might also be jealous alot shows that. Seems like she was lookin at it more like she thought she was a rival and started to blame, hate her for what the scum was doing
@@thecozyconstellation he was her nanny. The only one Jenn could afford. She regularly sent him and Maddy off to sleep behind a locking door. She admitted this. It looks like jealousy to many because it's the more common human emotion to process and understand. She was just extremely depressed and lazy, and lacked energy to raise her child properly on her own.
I love it when detectives have these scumbags cornered in an interview, and while they’re trying to get them to talk they tell them, “I know you’re a very intelligent person”. That always cracks me up! 😂
This woman didn’t “turn a blind eye” - her eyes were WIDE OPEN and she knew what was going on. She gave her child to this man with the one rule that they not become a couple. Absolutely sickening!!! I pray for justice for Maddie - not just with that monster but for her so called mother
Just watched this video. Gizzla said that Madelin’s friend said Madeline was upset because her mum didn’t believe her & Jenn stated she wanted her to move out at 18 : imo Madelin told her mum what SS was doing, Jenn was mad & retaliated that when she’s 18 she’ll send her to her dads. If makes sense to me. Maybe Madelin & Jenn’s relationship was rocky because Madelin had tried, more than once, telling her what he was doing., instead of believing her as a good mother should she turned on her threatened to send her away to her dad. I believe this happened.
Gisela is the absolute BEST!! Always advocating for the victim and their loved ones. Proud Grizzly here thanking Gisela for all the light she brings to this far too often dark world🐻❤️.
This case makes me furious. It was her mother’s responsibility to protect Maddie. And she basically just handed her daughter over to that horrible, disgusting man.
Can you cite the statute that makes it illegal to sleep in the same bed with a minor? From a legal perspective, they cannot charge her with a crime that does not exist. Even so, CPS could have removed her from the home if they had known what was going on.
It's almost impossible to prove that she knew, that's why. If being neglectful, checked out, and in denial were criminal, there'd be a WHOLE lot of people in prison.
There is no way he fell asleep in that room. He is crapping himself. He wants them to think he is so unconcerned and so relaxed. I guarentee he was terrified.
The mother did not know he had been grooming her daughter as her daughter was the one asking for this man to come over for a sleep over. Even when Jenn broke up with him; Maddie texted and called him often, on her own. There’s nothing to show he did anything to her, according to the actual affidavits that the files of pedophila was on his parents computer, at their home, & didn’t include 1 photo of Maddie.
@@dudemorris7769 You haven't been paying attention - Stefan Sterns had a ton of photos of himself sexually abusing Madeline on his phone. Dumbass thought he had deleted them with a factory re-set of his phone, but detectives were able to salvage them. Why are you championing a serial child sex abuser and killer? Even Sterns' own parents recognise his guilt. Grow up. Madeline was such a low priority to her mother, it's not surprising if from time to time she reached out to her abuser for attention. This is sadly common, paedophiles like Sterns target vulnerable, neglected kids like Maddie for that very reason. She told her counsellor what was really going on - she was glad when that vile parasite moved out of her home for a time, He was a jobless mommy's boy, who as she mentioned ate their food and contributed nothing. Jennifer Soto allowed a child rapist into Madeline's home and bed to do his worst, and he did. The death penalty's too good for that monster, let other prisoners mete out some justice!
@@dudemorris7769Is this a joke lol?! Do you think the entire case, including all of the evidence, have been layed out for all of social media to analyze? 😹💔
Because there's no evidence of wrongdoing on her part smh. It's not about what it looks like it's about what it is. You don't get to just lock up and charge people based on your feelings or intuition. Is there text messages, emails, notes, cooperating statements from her roommates, confessions or any other condemning pieces of evidence? No? Because if there is she'd be arrested right now. The women's at best guilty of criminal negligence but even then it's still hard to prove what she did or didn't know. I just wait until there's more information before I start making definitive statements if you keep you're head you'll never lose ✌
Encouraging it and the last time admitting to all but forcing it. Was it an 8 year old responsible for not putting her foot down and saying, "no!"? I guess it's a little late to charge Maddie for allowing herself to be a victim. I don't get it
As a parent, a mother, I can't imagine telling your live-in boyfriend to sleep with your young daughter. She needs to be in prison. The detective gives him too much credit, saying you're smart.
That's the question we all want to know! How could they not see what so many of us clearly do see regarding JS. There just is I feel just in what we just watched probable cause to arrest her. Idk that they have not made that decision, but they want to have all they need to make the arrest and for the conviction. That's at least what I am hoping beyond hope is going on. Nobody wants to just have a witch hunt. That is clearly obvious here. She knew, imo she definitely knew!
Why Mom is not charged is beyond me at least with conspiracy she's absolutely despicable and disgusting.she ALLOWED HIM TO SLEEP WIth daughter???? Sick
The Woody Allen comment should be enough to have gone in hard on her to break her lies, she allowed this to happen, and should pay the price. May be not as much time as him, but she needs to face justice.
The fact that he really thought the “ah, shucks, stupid me accidentally factory reset my phone… I just saw a button and I clicked the button. Poor me, I guess!” excuse would actually work is so mind numbingly idiotic it’s hard for me to even believe someone would genuinely try to use it. He’d have been better off physically destroying it, discarding it, and saying “I don’t know, I’ve been so frantic lately I just don’t know where I left it.” Still a bad excuse, but better than the factory reset. Anyone who knows anything about modern smart phones, or anyone who’s ever sold a phone, knows there’s no “oops, factory reset!” anymore. There’s minimum two pop ups asking “ARE YOU REALLY SURE YOU WANT TO WIPE EVERYTHING?” popups, maybe even a “enter your password to verify you’re serious” popup to prevent accidental wiping of devices. Everything about that loser, from his idiotic excuses to his stupid sad sack whiney voice, just makes me mad.
JS was so in love with SS that no one else mattered. Yesterday, I watched an exFBI undercover agent being interviewed. He was investigating [[NAMBLA]]. He said single moms were always groomed first. Then, they move on to the child. JS meeting SS was the perfect storm. So sad that Maddie lived a horrible life. Her homelife was terrible with a mom that didn't care about her. No love at all 💔😢 RIP, Maddie, you will never be forgotten ❤
She "wanted to believe he was a good guy still" in the same breathe as "you showed me pictures of the sectual stuff but i didnt think he could do something evil like unaliving her" 💔 Poor madeline, she needed someone good in her life to save her from them.
Love seeing Gisela, hearing her thoughts & well learned knowledge about Madeline Soto's case being shared on CourtTV She works very hard for all of her Grizzlies 💞
When she said the Woody Allen thing. She said "you can't do that to ME." Me. She didn't want him leaving her for her daughter, not that she was at all concerned for her daughter.
I think because Madeline became 13 years old she decided she will stand up for herself and said no to him that night and he losted and killed her. He is pure evil. The mother knows what he was doing to her daughter how she couldn’t , not like they were living in a place with 60 rooms
I wonder if they went upstairs at all. I wonder if Jen was involved in her murder, because she told Detective Keith that Maddy probably was drugged, choked and dumped….BEFORE they found Maddy’s body.
@@beanj580 I listened to the original FULL police interview of Jennifer Soto and Detective Keith asked her what may have happened to Maddy and she said ALL those things. If you go find the full interview you will hear her say it. I think Gisela has it but definitely go listen to it!
The fact that she says her mom taught her to never trust a man but then she trusts this man to sleep with her daughter and not think anything of it?? Make it make sense like there are sooooo many inconsistencies with her story it's just mind bottling to me how she's not in prison already
Madeline knew what was going on. She was clearly distracted or disturbed by it from her drawings. They became intrusive thoughts it looks like. Looks like a notebook she was doing Math in but certainly was not focusing on Math from her drawings. So terribly sad, and nobody caught it and noticed her cry! Sad!
I heard a channel talk yesterday while showing Madeline's father was being interviewed and I'm really starting to think, Madeline and her father look so much alike I think Jenn had a lot of internal animosity towards Madeline because she looked just like her father. There may have been similarities in mannerism and maybe personalities. It could maybe explain the unusual distance a mother would have to a young girl.
That woman didn't want to be bothered by anyone including her own daughter.. Stephen was the perfect babysitter because he liked playing games n stuff that Maddie liked doing so, Jenn could do whatever she wanted and didn't have to be a mom or girlfriend.. She did not want to be bothered!! 🤔
The mom was so desperate to have a man in the house, she offered him a package deal any bum couldn’t refuse; free food, board and room, bunk with her daughter and when mom’s too tired for sex, she offered up her daughter! Look at that child’s birthday picture! That is not a pose a thirteen year old would make! The mom ain’t fooling anybody - she was totally aware and condoned it all! In fact, other relatives had to question this setup she had at home and his character had to be questioned by her family! Betcha Madeline died because Madeline (may have?!?) said, “No more! Leave me alone!” Odd that the public never saw any interviews detectives would have had with teachers or her classmates?!? “Someone” had to have known something about her home/personal life. A tragic sad story! Jen and her shack-up perv lover should both rot in jail!
When that officer popped in the interrogation room & said I'll take the vape please. Thanks appreciate it" . That was hilarious. That & watxhing him try to drink water while handcuffed lol
Jenn should be charged for NEGLECT at the minimum. She approved of them sleeping together alone. SHE KNEW. CHARGE AND ARREST HER PERIOD ‼️ JUSTICE be done for Maddy 💜🙏💜.
Exactly. AT THE LEAST neglect. I don't know how she hasn't been arrested. They both disgust me. She pawned him on her so she didn't have to be with him. Her saying ok fine to the sa makes me want to puke. 🤮
@@kimokelly2841 I agree. My daughter is a survivor of SA at 4 years old. 40 years ago. Laws are so different now. I still feel guilty to this day. The babysitter was licensed but her husband wasn't. She knew my daughter wasn't the first and she was allowed to continue babysitting. Smh He died 10 years back I read in the paper. She should of been charged She knew. Laws Today are better for our children. Sick people out there. No one can tell me Jenn didn't know. She did. She seen pics of SA of her daughter and said get a Attorney to his Dad. Unbelievable ‼️ NO one is thar stupid. She Belongs locked up with him. She crys here because she's called out by the one in black. He tells her I don't believe you. Good for him. She knew he was scum stealing from his parents and she stayed with him. Tells what trash she is.
Gisela MADE A GREAT POINT AT THE END OF THE SHOW THERE!!! Madeline was not all sleeping and out of it! She knows what was happening - look what she drew in her notebook. My goodness when the trial starts for this case so much more will come out I bet!
When Jen said something like, I know now about the sex stuff but I never thought he could be evil and kill her. So, looking at pictures where you child has been SA for years isnt evil? Oh my, her time will come.
Jen cared more about her drugs And her sleep. She was anjoyed by being a mom. She valued her sleep more than her daughter so she was like no go you guys go to sleep somewhere else because she was selfish. Like I said as long as she had her drugs and her sleep nothing else mattered
Great show Vinnie!!! Glad to see two of my fav guests on tonight. Go G! Jen S was so selfish, being a single mom you get up/stay up for you child..even when you're tired and you push through daily for your child! In one of he first interviews with news 35, she says SS is her "partner" who took her to school. It's like she blames all weaknesses in this case on meds or mental ilness it makes me sick! She wanted drugs and sleep. Maddie was far down on her priority list. Justice for Maddie💟
about the woody allen statement...jen says to stearns...don't you ever do that to me....this woman is despicable...she knew what was going on with maddie but didn't want to lose her man !!!

💯 percent and make a statement about Woody Allen!?!? She needs to be charged with something Maddie suffered
Witch-hunters never think past their own emotions flinging out dangerous accusations. You don’t know the full facts yet. None of us do.
If she was so disconnected from reality, she should have found some place better and safer for Maddie. Jenn’s parents, Maddie’s dad, something! I don’t believe for a second Jenn had no idea what was happening. I believe Maddie was a buffer. Jenn had the ‘relationship’ without any of the work. She offered up Maddie. No woman is stupid enough to believe nothing is happening when you have a grown man in bed with a young girl.
BRAVO Court TV for inviting Gisela to the conversation once again! No one does true crime better. So proud to be a member of the Grizzly True Crime community. Justice for Madeline. This precious child was left unprotected by most of the adults closest to her. She deserved better.

Is that how you pronounce her name tho?
@@zabe428 Vinnie pronounced it correctly.
cop says he's intelligent..lol.just to try to drag more stuff out of him. He's dumber than a stump...too stupid to be fed and the cops know it..
Whose name? Gisela?@@zabe428
When he says, "She's a very good girl." Is creepy in itself.
What about “that girl knows nothing but love in this house” 🤮
@@ThriveCollective1188but Jenn says nothing good about her
Those words haunt me.
@@ThriveCollective1188that’s the phrase that kept running through my head when they played that clip too! It was so disgusting and creepy coming from him🤮🤬
Those words are so sickening 😤🤢
Gisela is a well-researched professional with a giant heart who doesn’t beg for money to make her channel thrive and alive - unusual, yet necessary human qualities in this true crime space. She knows every inch of this case and brings us together as a community in a respectful way to explore the facts together. Thank you for having her on! - Proud to be Grizzly. 🐻
It infuriates me that Jenn has always been so selfish, playing the victim and using her mental health to be so weak. I know plenty of people who live with bipolar, depression, anxiety who work hard to push past it and live a productive life while protecting their children. They don’t just take drugs that blunt them and hide their head in the sand
Well said. 💜🙏💜
And who knows maybe Jenn knew all about the SA and was all for it .
You forgot her ADD that both she and ped constantly talk about ?
You've got that right. I'm a Mom with PTSD, post partum depression, and anxiety and I have chosen a combination of therapy, diet, exercise, and minimal medication to handle my symptoms. My son's safety, health, and happiness always comes first. I'm lucky enough to be a SAHM and I make sure that my son eats healthy, has play dates with his cousins, goes to the playground, and the public library every week. My son is showered with love, attention, and affection from both of his parents. Medication cannot solve mental health issues all by itself. It takes therapy to overcome the trauma along with exercise and having a purpose. My purpose is to be the best Mom that I can to my son so he can live a happy and healthy life. I am also an alcoholic and I've been sober for almost 5 years. IMO Jenn uses medication to spend her time sleeping instead of trying to heal her trauma through therapy. It's a lot easier to hide from your trauma than it is to face it and do the work to heal from it. I'm not a mental health professional and I am only speaking from my personal experience.
@@snowwhite2524 thank you for being a great mom and putting your child first. Sending ❤️ from me to you
I may have some ADD/ADHD but got through A BS in Nursing School by making sure I exercised and stayed active. I stopped taking meds for depression because they didn’t seem to help. Nature soothes my soul. I live within a few hours of the beautiful Mountains of the PNW
I was waiting for this show. You chose a great interviewer by choosing Gisela . She’s the best on true crime TH-cam.
Her mom said never trust a man, yet she sends her daughter to sleep with a man, even when they were broken up. She was afraid of an eventual Woody Allen situation yet she took no mesures to protect her child. She is not even outraged, doesn't degrade him. That says alot.
Would also like to know why she told Maddie she will disown her at 18.
This woman deserves no immunity, she should be in jail for child endangerment at least.
Right!? A lot of her statements contradict herself.
Saying her mom said never trust a man, yet she says I guess I was too trusting.
Then worried about Stephen running away with her daughter when she turns 18 but tells her she will disown her at 18. That really opens up the possibility of Stephen doing the exact same thing! She would have nowhere to go and that would give Stephen an excuse to leave with her.
She also says I believe the sexual stuff but didn't believe he would do anything evil to her. Ummm the sexual stuff is him doing evil things to her. Why doesn't she see it that way?
Every SINGLE word…..I agree! The only emotion came from the visual evidence that police showed her, and even at that she still thought he had ONLY SA on Maddie, surely not MURDER her!🤬🥹
@@progers018 I agree with you. Jenn is very messed up, and should be charged with child endangerment, IMO. I believe her own history includes SA when she was a child. Her mother had several relationships after her parents separated. In many cases like that those children become very protective of their own children. This case is tragic.
💯 I agree it’s unbelievable that the cops are in essence protecting her! I have heard of people who did long jail bids for much less than this!!
@@shaleniramsahai5782 the only reason she was afraid of a woody Allen outcome is because she knew what was happening, the same reason she told Maddie she’d disown her at 18. She was jealous that her bf liked Maddie more, rather than being repulsed and angered by the fact he was assaulting her child. She knew. I guarantee she knew.
Jen said he was embarrassed about his body. He was self conscious. He thought he was flabby. HE WAS RIGHT! He is disgusting.
He IS flabby, disgustingly so. 🤢🤮
His body and face are so pathetic. EWWWWW!!!
100% he was using Jenn to get to Maddie. Gross
Agree
She a monster
And I think mom knew it
@@tracyshaffer4510 💯
So wait. she never trusted a man, but then lets him sleep in a bed with her daughter??
@@kathrynkrieger7644 exactly, bc she thinks all men are like this anyway, so why not give him access to her daughter . Disgusting but I think that's her logic and
4 years! This was going on
Okay that Woody Allen comment has squashed any lingering doubt I had about Jen’s involvement. That, and the “not evil” comment. She knew. She absolutely knew!
Exactly...
Then in another interview 2 days before this, she wasn’t sure he should be charged for the SA! She wanted him to walk out of there the night he was arrested
Jennifer Soto offered her daughter up on a silver platter to that paedophile, to do his worst - and he did. For years she let that creep go to bed with her precious, defenceless little girl, and have full, unsupervised access to her. It is plainly obvious she knew he was sexually abusing Maddie, and she was clearly absolutely fine with it.
Jennifer Soto actively enabled her child's rape and murder, she must get proper jail time for her criminal child neglect. Her crocodile tears in front of police are all for herself. She's a poor excuse for a mother. Child neglect is child abuse, and this is some of the worst category. Make an example of her - prosecute and lock her up!
Bad enough she opened up their home to that lazy parasite who contributed nothing (Madeline told her counsellor he ate all their food, and made her feel uncomfortable). That alone is a red flag that Madeline's needs/wishes were zero priority to her mother. Why did she let him move in at all?
What the hell did Jennifer Soto even get from that relationship? Sterns spent no money on them, in fact he was a drain on their family resources, and was even suspected of stealing from them, eg Maddie's birthday cash (he made a habit of this, he stole money and jewellery from his parents too). Jennifer obviously didn't even want to sleep with him - she pushed that chore onto her innocent child.
She's obviously one of those pathetic women who must have a boyfriend at any cost, for appearance's sake. She can't bear to be single for 2 minutes, even when being single is a far better option than dating a man who is not only a creepy misfit and loser, but is abusing and endangering your child!
It seems like she was jealous of Maddy. It's so sick and sad!
Me too! Was giving her benefit of the doubt of being uneducated and dumb but that sure changed my view too 100% turn! She saw her daughter as a sex rival and his sick!!!! I am horrified 😮😫😳
Gisela! She's so respectful of victims as she follows and covers these horrendous crimes. Thanks for having her on your show!
I HATE when they call it a “relationship”. A child can’t enter into a se$$al relationship! It was ra$e, period!
I do too but I understand why. They want to get her to talk, not close up.
yeah i hate that wording too but they did that to get a rise out of her, to provoke her jealousy.
As someone who works with survivors of SA for 2 decades I know one thing for sure: lots of abuse can only happen, because the mothers allow it to happen. They don't only know what is going on, they send their daughters to do the acts they don't feel like doing. Jenn Soto talked in her interview about Stephan being into certain practices she didn't like, and that that was one of the reasons their relationship crumbled. But when her daughter SHOWED her that she was bleeding from there, she created an obstipation excuse, and just got her more medication.
Jenn Soto shows and expresses very clearly, that she doesn't see the activities between her 9, 10, 11, then 12 year old daughter and her grown-up boyfriend as "something bad" (besides of it being a risk for her relationship). That reminds me of a (now deceased) friend, whose mother caught her husband r-ing their at that point 10 year old daughter, slammed the door shut, and later hissed at her daughter "You don't want me to be happy! Now you're even taking my husband away from me!".
Cases like this happen way more, than many people are aware of. And to (almost) every long-term abuse situation belongs a mother, who knows about it or at least suspects something.
And I think that it's really time to get women out of the victim bubble, and hold them fully accountable as the second perpetrator in a situation like this.
@elle-iza I can't agree more. That is so well said. This must change. Putting this mother in some sort of victim role makes me sick to my stomach. I hope that they actually really know this. If nothing happens to JS, I have no words to describe yet the horror that would be. Much less sending that message out to other victims this is happening too! Play the idk poor me. We'll everyone who's seen it knows exactly what I mean! Complete Justice for Madeline🌄🕊
👏👏
Please don't blame moms all the time. My daughter was SA'd while at a sleepover at a friend's house. I went to the house, met the parents, talked for awhile with them to get a feel for who they were. On her second sleepover that creep assaulted my daughter at barely 13. I did not know at all. I didn't learn about it until months later. It was proven in a court of law that he assaulted 4 young girls but only had to serve 3 years in the local jail. The mother doesn't always know, that's a fact!!
Jenn cared more about SS than Maddie.
Jenn loves her meds more than Maddie.
RIP Maddie, you didn’t deserve the mother you had.
You didn’t deserve this flabby monster’s abuse!
AGREE! I'd also like to add that Jenn loves HERSELF more than Maddie. SS is so DISGUSTING not only for what he did, but he is just creepy and GROSS to look at! That poor beautiful little girl never had a chance! I just want to slap some sense into Jenn. She acts like she is so stupid and she's not. Neglectful, emotionless, careless, and a sorry excuse for a mother, but stupid she is not.

Exactly
@@AngelaCovacs 💯

She literally victim blamed Maddie when talking about the woody Allen scenario. She stated “where the stepdaughter falls for the…..”. Then she corrected herself when she realized she was blaming Maddie. This woman despised her daughter.

She should be charged at a minimum for allowing him to sleep with a child..horrific!!!
No law to prosecute there though. Only way to get her is Sterns has to out her knowing what he was doing! He is not gonna talk now.
Max
Jennifer Soto had 1 child & occasional part time jobs. She was overwhelmed? I don’t buy it.
She didn’t want that baby and she found a way to get rid of her😭 so sad!
exactly AND she admitted to cancelling a $300 botox appointment the day Maddie went "missing". How does a part time worker that needs roomates afford that? I think she was getting paid for it. She was aware and in on it for the money in my opinion.
She's a loser
In my opinion you say, even though detectives that know much more than us say she had no involvement. Lol
@@djohny-ne3ggI heard on one of the channels I follow that the property actually belongs to Jennifer’s dad and he’s the one who rents out the rooms, as a matter of fact she paid him rent. That’s why there was not a room for Maddie, just that area in the living room or something like that. Perhaps if she had her own room she could have locked her creepy mother and her creepy boyfriend out. Just a sad story all around.
Jen says "don't ever do that to me" re: Stephan running away with Maddie. Not do that to my daughter? That's really meaningful to me
Isn’t that like the mom from Precious blaming her daughter on getting SAd?
I agree with you. I believe she knew exactly what SS was doing, Jenn emphasised ‘don’t do that to me’. Thinking of herself & not her daughter.
Agreed, she also threatened to kick Maddie out when she turned 18. Jenn thought she would have a 'live in companion'with that perp

The woody Alan comment seems like she is jealous of her daughter. She is worried her daughter will steal her man 😢 Maddie didn’t have anybody on her side
How does everybody see Stephan as "Jenn's man". She hasn't sleep with him in 2 years , admits she didn't like sex w him. Sends him off to sleep w her daughter 30 minutes after she gets to the home. Where is the "jealousy"? This is a true life horror story , not a romance novel. Stop saying she was jealous. She was lazy and stupid, drugged up and criminally negligent. NOT jealous.
@@jh-is8nq you are right :(
@@jh-is8nq SHE was jealous though. she wanted him in her life no matter what. he's a bum yet she was planning on bringing him back and helping him. her words. she only got upset when the cop said "they were having a sexual relationship" . she wasn't upset that he was abusing her or k1lled her, btu she was upset that he had chosen Maddie over her.
@@jh-is8nqall those could be true, but I think she might also be jealous alot shows that. Seems like she was lookin at it more like she thought she was a rival and started to blame, hate her for what the scum was doing
@@thecozyconstellation he was her nanny. The only one Jenn could afford. She regularly sent him and Maddy off to sleep behind a locking door. She admitted this. It looks like jealousy to many because it's the more common human emotion to process and understand. She was just extremely depressed and lazy, and lacked energy to raise her child properly on her own.
Gisela! Great to see you on Vinnies broadcast! U earned this girl!
Omg!!! ❤ 200%
I don't believe a damn word out of her mouth
The way she responds about the abuse sounds like she believes they are having a consensual sexual relationship .its so sickening to hear
Exactly.
I love it when detectives have these scumbags cornered in an interview, and while they’re trying to get them to talk they tell them, “I know you’re a very intelligent person”. That always cracks me up! 😂
Yup
Very manipulative I would say !!, Jen starts a sentence realises half way through then changes the end, she's covering for him totally
@@Francis-xl2gu I think Jen saw Maddie, her own daughter, as competition with men. So sick!
@@WeezelWayz twisted
Her mother can never be called a mother. She should be ashamed of herself. Proud Grizzly here. Gisela is amazing fighter for victims!
This woman didn’t “turn a blind eye” - her eyes were WIDE OPEN and she knew what was going on. She gave her child to this man with the one rule that they not become a couple. Absolutely sickening!!! I pray for justice for Maddie - not just with that monster but for her so called mother
There's no Justification for Jen BS. Like she said. It's Fine 🤬
She needs to be charged but they said she has immunity now smh
@@danimarie0916which is complete BS.
Remember, you can be sued for making accusations that have been found to be 100% false by the actual police affadavits & recordings.
She only has partial immunity.
Just watched this video. Gizzla said that Madelin’s friend said Madeline was upset because her mum didn’t believe her & Jenn stated she wanted her to move out at 18 : imo Madelin told her mum what SS was doing, Jenn was mad & retaliated that when she’s 18 she’ll send her to her dads. If makes sense to me. Maybe Madelin & Jenn’s relationship was rocky because Madelin had tried, more than once, telling her what he was doing., instead of believing her as a good mother should she turned on her threatened to send her away to her dad. I believe this happened.
I believe you have it very close if not exactly give or take a few things both are disgusting

Can’t believe she worried more about getting a lawyer for her boyfriend than finding her daughters body 😡😡
This case makes me furious. It was her mother’s responsibility to protect Maddie. And she basically just handed her daughter over to that horrible, disgusting man.
Sick, they're just let talk as normal. They need to lock the mother up.
Maddie deserves a Netflix documentary , and aware people of monsters like SS. RIP MADDIE
Why isn’t this mother being charged with allowing poor Madeline to sleep with perv??? 😡😡
Can you cite the statute that makes it illegal to sleep in the same bed with a minor? From a legal perspective, they cannot charge her with a crime that does not exist. Even so, CPS could have removed her from the home if they had known what was going on.
@@The_Unpopular_Opinion_XII take your bot account promoting CA outta here.....Red flag alert, report this user
It's almost impossible to prove that she knew, that's why. If being neglectful, checked out, and in denial were criminal, there'd be a WHOLE lot of people in prison.
@@The_Unpopular_Opinion_XIIthey can absolutely charge her with negligence and neglect
Being neglectful is a crime. It's called child neglect.
There is no way he fell asleep in that room. He is crapping himself. He wants them to think he is so unconcerned and so relaxed. I guarentee he was terrified.
💜💜💜 JUSTICE FOR MADDIE 💜💜💜
Didn't Jen Soto say on that first day looking for Maddie, "We need to get a lawyer for you." Before Maddie is even found.
Exactly, after seeing the video of him abusing her daughter she suggested getting him a lawyer. Sick individual
The mother did not protect her child!
She wouldn't even protect her in Death 😢
The mother did not know he had been grooming her daughter as her daughter was the one asking for this man to come over for a sleep over. Even when Jenn broke up with him; Maddie texted and called him often, on her own. There’s nothing to show he did anything to her, according to the actual affidavits that the files of pedophila was on his parents computer, at their home, & didn’t include 1 photo of Maddie.
@@dudemorris7769 You haven't been paying attention - Stefan Sterns had a ton of photos of himself sexually abusing Madeline on his phone. Dumbass thought he had deleted them with a factory re-set of his phone, but detectives were able to salvage them.
Why are you championing a serial child sex abuser and killer? Even Sterns' own parents recognise his guilt. Grow up.
Madeline was such a low priority to her mother, it's not surprising if from time to time she reached out to her abuser for attention. This is sadly common, paedophiles like Sterns target vulnerable, neglected kids like Maddie for that very reason.
She told her counsellor what was really going on - she was glad when that vile parasite moved out of her home for a time, He was a jobless mommy's boy, who as she mentioned ate their food and contributed nothing. Jennifer Soto allowed a child rapist into Madeline's home and bed to do his worst, and he did. The death penalty's too good for that monster, let other prisoners mete out some justice!

Her mother should be locked up what a disgrace letting this monster abuse her precious child while knowing all along sickening
💯
Because there's no evidence of wrongdoing on her part smh. It's not about what it looks like it's about what it is. You don't get to just lock up and charge people based on your feelings or intuition. Is there text messages, emails, notes, cooperating statements from her roommates, confessions or any other condemning pieces of evidence? No? Because if there is she'd be arrested right now. The women's at best guilty of criminal negligence but even then it's still hard to prove what she did or didn't know. I just wait until there's more information before I start making definitive statements if you keep you're head you'll never lose ✌
Encouraging it and the last time admitting to all but forcing it. Was it an 8 year old responsible for not putting her foot down and saying, "no!"? I guess it's a little late to charge Maddie for allowing herself to be a victim. I don't get it
I don’t think Maddie missed sterns. She was crying that she didn’t want to go home from her grandmas
As a parent, a mother, I can't imagine telling your live-in boyfriend to sleep with your young daughter. She needs to be in prison. The detective gives him too much credit, saying you're smart.
He was playing him… IMO!
She stated he was never allowed to drive her car!

And Debra Sterns too right? She made a payment to previous roommates to not disclose SS voyerism.

That's the question we all want to know! How could they not see what so many of us clearly do see regarding JS. There just is I feel just in what we just watched probable cause to arrest her. Idk that they have not made that decision, but they want to have all they need to make the arrest and for the conviction. That's at least what I am hoping beyond hope is going on. Nobody wants to just have a witch hunt. That is clearly obvious here. She knew, imo she definitely knew!

Amen! I couldn't agree with you more.
Excatly 💜🙏💜 notice how he leaves out porn on his phone and his SEXUAL abuse to Maddy. He should be given Ole fashion Justice in the town square.
Jenn knew all about it
The Woody Allen comment should be enough to have gone in hard on her to break her lies, she allowed this to happen, and should pay the price. May be not as much time as him, but she needs to face justice.
As much as we all want her charged and believe she knew something, the police need to be able to prove it.
The fact that he really thought the “ah, shucks, stupid me accidentally factory reset my phone… I just saw a button and I clicked the button. Poor me, I guess!” excuse would actually work is so mind numbingly idiotic it’s hard for me to even believe someone would genuinely try to use it. He’d have been better off physically destroying it, discarding it, and saying “I don’t know, I’ve been so frantic lately I just don’t know where I left it.” Still a bad excuse, but better than the factory reset. Anyone who knows anything about modern smart phones, or anyone who’s ever sold a phone, knows there’s no “oops, factory reset!” anymore. There’s minimum two pop ups asking “ARE YOU REALLY SURE YOU WANT TO WIPE EVERYTHING?” popups, maybe even a “enter your password to verify you’re serious” popup to prevent accidental wiping of devices. Everything about that loser, from his idiotic excuses to his stupid sad sack whiney voice, just makes me mad.
Does anyone really believe anything that Stephan and Jen say ??? I friggin dont
Disgusting case.
That
Mania disgusting
Imagine poor
Maddie having to be physical with him?
😢 I agree
JS was so in love with SS that no one else mattered.
Yesterday, I watched an exFBI undercover agent being interviewed. He was investigating [[NAMBLA]]. He said single moms were always groomed first. Then, they move on to the child.
JS meeting SS was the perfect storm.
So sad that Maddie lived a horrible life. Her homelife was terrible with a mom that didn't care about her.
No love at all 💔😢
RIP, Maddie, you will never be forgotten ❤
I hope Madeline Rests In Peace❤ All the adults in her life failed her. I hope Jenn is arrested for neglecting the abuse she knew that was going on.
Amen to this.
She is in heaven now.
This mother didn't even seem upset at all. She should be charged with child neglect that resulted in death of her child . Sickening. Both of them .
She "wanted to believe he was a good guy still" in the same breathe as "you showed me pictures of the sectual stuff but i didnt think he could do something evil like unaliving her" 💔 Poor madeline, she needed someone good in her life to save her from them.
The look on Stephan's face:
Detective " and sometimes the apps put the photos back on your phone..."
Boom. Most brilliant shock ever.
How can she even hold a conversation? Someone does this to my daughter, even 1% of it... I couldn't sit and talk like that. It's like she's a robot.

@@AprilEpely yes, and I love him for that
Doesn’t his voice sound so timid. “Don’t I need to be talking to a lawyer right now?” 2 minutes into interview. Death sentence for him!
I think because Madeline became 13 years old she decided she will stand up for herself and said no to him that night and he losted and killed her. He is pure evil. The mother knows what he was doing to her daughter how she couldn’t , not like they were living in a place with 60 rooms
Actually, I've been seeing articles saying that she may have been pregnant. That would absolutely explain what he did.
I wonder if they went upstairs at all. I wonder if Jen was involved in her murder, because she told Detective Keith that Maddy probably was drugged, choked and dumped….BEFORE they found Maddy’s body.
Where did Jenn say she was drugged, choked and dumped? I literally listened to every word she said and she never said that
@@beanj580 I listened to the original FULL police interview of Jennifer Soto and Detective Keith asked her what may have happened to Maddy and she said ALL those things. If you go find the full interview you will hear her say it. I think Gisela has it but definitely go listen to it!

The fact that she says her mom taught her to never trust a man but then she trusts this man to sleep with her daughter and not think anything of it?? Make it make sense like there are sooooo many inconsistencies with her story it's just mind bottling to me how she's not in prison already
I was waiting to see this episode posted on TH-cam. Thank you.
Madeline knew what was going on. She was clearly distracted or disturbed by it from her drawings. They became intrusive thoughts it looks like. Looks like a notebook she was doing Math in but certainly was not focusing on Math from her drawings. So terribly sad, and nobody caught it and noticed her cry! Sad!
I heard a channel talk yesterday while showing Madeline's father was being interviewed and I'm really starting to think, Madeline and her father look so much alike I think Jenn had a lot of internal animosity towards Madeline because she looked just like her father. There may have been similarities in mannerism and maybe personalities. It could maybe explain the unusual distance a mother would have to a young girl.
Sorry mom needs arrested too for accessory plus other charges
Love Seeing G. From Grizzy True Crime. She is the best, most professional & fact based TC Creator on YT!!!! Keep bringing her back!!! ❤️✌️
OMG this case if getting sicker and sicker. How bizarre is this case
That woman didn't want to be bothered by anyone including her own daughter.. Stephen was the perfect babysitter because he liked playing games n stuff that Maddie liked doing so, Jenn could do whatever she wanted and didn't have to be a mom or girlfriend.. She did not want to be bothered!! 🤔
The mom was so desperate to have a man in the house, she offered him a package deal any bum couldn’t refuse; free food, board and room, bunk with her daughter and when mom’s too tired for sex, she offered up her daughter! Look at that child’s birthday picture! That is not a pose a thirteen year old would make! The mom ain’t fooling anybody - she was totally aware and condoned it all! In fact, other relatives had to question this setup she had at home and his character had to be questioned by her family! Betcha Madeline died because Madeline (may have?!?) said, “No more! Leave me alone!” Odd that the public never saw any interviews detectives would have had with teachers or her classmates?!? “Someone” had to have known something about her home/personal life. A tragic sad story! Jen and her shack-up perv lover should both rot in jail!
Yep
There are interviews with teachers and classmates.
Yep, all those women in the family and yet Maddie told no one
Then she broke up with him and kicked him out. Lol. So desperate that she kicked him to the curb in November.
When that officer popped in the interrogation room & said I'll take the vape please. Thanks appreciate it" . That was hilarious. That & watxhing him try to drink water while handcuffed lol
Jenn should be charged for NEGLECT at the minimum. She approved of them sleeping together alone. SHE KNEW.
CHARGE AND ARREST HER PERIOD ‼️ JUSTICE be done for Maddy 💜🙏💜.
Exactly. AT THE LEAST neglect. I don't know how she hasn't been arrested. They both disgust me. She pawned him on her so she didn't have to be with him. Her saying ok fine to the sa makes me want to puke. 🤮
@@kimokelly2841 I agree. My daughter is a survivor of SA at 4 years old. 40 years ago. Laws are so different now. I still feel guilty to this day. The babysitter was licensed but her husband wasn't. She knew my daughter wasn't the first and she was allowed to continue babysitting. Smh He died 10 years back I read in the paper. She should of been charged She knew. Laws Today are better for our children. Sick people out there. No one can tell me Jenn didn't know. She did. She seen pics of SA of her daughter and said get a Attorney to his Dad. Unbelievable ‼️ NO one is thar stupid. She Belongs locked up with him. She crys here because she's called out by the one in black. He tells her I don't believe you. Good for him. She knew he was scum stealing from his parents and she stayed with him. Tells what trash she is.
So Victoria that must also be your fault that your daughter was abused right? You knew and allowed it? You're literally contradicting yourself
Anyone who had kids and dated this man needs to come forward
Someone Doesn't have 30,000 plus videos and pictures of your kid and you know nothing ! BS
I think it was stated he had 1700 images of Maddie and 35K images of other victims
This horror of a so called mother SHOULD BE BEHIND BARS 😮
Gisela MADE A GREAT POINT AT THE END OF THE SHOW THERE!!! Madeline was not all sleeping and out of it! She knows what was happening - look what she drew in her notebook. My goodness when the trial starts for this case so much more will come out I bet!
When Jen said something like, I know now about the sex stuff but I never thought he could be evil and kill her. So, looking at pictures where you child has been SA for years isnt evil? Oh my, her time will come.
I’m in Ireland. I think the US investigators and detectives are just brilliant. So clever and thorough. Without them he might have got away with it.
It’s a death penalty case too. In a case like this I do believe in it.
The police did a great job with this case. They asked all the right questions and called out inconsistencies.
Ehh. They have their moments I guess.
Sterns is surely a nasty individual, jenn should be arrested. This case is sickening.
Jen cared more about her drugs And her sleep. She was anjoyed by being a mom. She valued her sleep more than her daughter so she was like no go you guys go to sleep somewhere else because she was selfish. Like I said as long as she had her drugs and her sleep nothing else mattered
Great show Vinnie!!! Glad to see two of my fav guests on tonight. Go G! Jen S was so selfish, being a single mom you get up/stay up for you child..even when you're tired and you push through daily for your child! In one of he first interviews with news 35, she says SS is her "partner" who took her to school. It's like she blames all weaknesses in this case on meds or mental ilness it makes me sick! She wanted drugs and sleep. Maddie was far down on her priority list. Justice for Maddie💟
about the woody allen statement...jen says to stearns...don't you ever do that to me....this woman is despicable...she knew what was going on with maddie but didn't want to lose her man !!!
Exactly I totally agree
