- Stephan Sterns, the boyfriend of Florida teen Maddie Soto's mom, has been charged in her murder nearly 8 weeks after she vanished. Maddie disappeared on February 25, shortly after photos showed her celebrating her 13th birthday with friends. Sterns also faces dozens of sex crimes charges. While Sterns faces a murder charge, questions remain about Maddie's murder and whether other people were involved. Law&Crime's Angenette Levy looks at the questions that remain with retired NYPD cold case sergeant Joe Giacalone in this episode of Crime Fix - a daily show covering the biggest stories in crime.

Mother told multiple lies in those interviews.
She needs to be charged immediately.
I agree.
If she lied to police, that’s a potential charge, but lying in an interview, just not a chargeable offense.
@@selecttravelvacations7472
It may not be a chargeable offence, but it shows deception.
At a minimum they could charge her for neglect, and ramp up from there as more evidence is confirmed.
They probably will but they probably want to get her to flip on the other guy
Oh no that's a female .... different standards of law.
If I was to become a single mom I won’t date until my kids are grown and out of the home because These types of stories scare me the most, Kids being the victims of their moms bad judgement
It's exactly why I don't date and won't until mine are out of the house. There is NO man worth my child's safety.
@@mycatsnameiskaren8253 Thank you ❤🙏❤
If only my mom had the same judgment as you. Based upon what I went through as a kid, this could've easily been me. Parents have exactly 1 job: Keep their kid(s) safe. She did not do that effectively at all and put her desire to have men around above the safety and comfort of her children. She has since apologized for it, but I'm still left to pick up the pieces as an adult because the damage has already been done. I don't understand women like this. I really don't.
@@mycatsnameiskaren8253This!!
Exactly what I did. I really don’t understand someone taking the chance
I think the mother knew something, she clearly lied during that news interview.
Yes! And some of the images on his phone were taken by a third party - we don’t know how much she was involved in crimes, but she was.
Idk I feel like she didn’t wanna believe it but she low key knew
@@wesleydarling968Hopefully there wasn't a third party involved. That poor child.
The mother is also guilty and should be in jail 😢
Of what? Bad taste in men?
@FrenchieGivesYabatheKia he was abusing her right under her nose. How did she not know
@@FrenchieGivesYabatheKiaThe mom lied in initial interviews. Some of the images on his phone were taken by a third(unseen) person - it could be that she knew and was involved. I hope charges are brought against her.
@@wesleydarling968that’s so disgusting omg
Agree,she should be charged with negligence.
The mom needs to be charged
Definitely! Absolutely. She is a liar and may be far more involved in this death.
@@wesleydarling968 yup
I completely agree. There is no way she didn't at least know this was going on. What a disgusting mother. @@wesleydarling968
Child negligence resulting in death. The abuse was happening for years and she did nothing. Doesn't matter if she was aware of it or not.
@@personalaccount2169 Exactly! I’m not sure which is worse…If she knew or if she didn’t know. He was not Maddie’s father. She brought that monster into her home and left him alone with her young daughter ALL THE TIME. She’s responsible too.
her mom failed to protect her daughter what's wrong with you MOM?
She doesn’t deserve the title. Poor Maddie lying cold in the woods and here she was giving interviews and rubbing his back. How disgusting!
She is absolutely covering up something
@@Tweettwishyes! I agree. She either knew what was going on or she was involved in the abuse
That mom 100% knew
You can’t tell me she never once went through his phone and saw those pics.
She was probably the ring leader
She could've been jealous that he'd rather sleep with the daughter than her
@DaisyAppleJuice doubt very much that mom had any access to hid phone. I don't have to my husband's phone and he doesn't have access to mine. Same goes to our grown up children. She most like knew what's going on but not from his phone.
@@danielleburke87i think you hit the nail on the head omg
These Careless so-called mothers be putting their children in danger. Hopefully this monster gets dealt with in prison..
That mom sounded real sus during the tv interview sounded so fake. She had to know
RIP Maddie Soto 💔
💜
😢💔😔🙏🏽
This is beyond disturbing. What that poor baby must have went through RIP angel
This poor child's mother failed her in the biggest ways.
The mother is a liar! She knows what happened to her
You people are disgusting children are harmed everyday by there own biological fathers and moms have no idea shame on u for attacking a mother shame on the internet yall are disgraceful
The mother does not ever seem to be upset but more stressed about speaking and knowing the world is watching her (like fear os public speaking). She is too disconnected
Got to wonder if they were selling those pics and videos for profit. The mom just doesn’t act right.
@lokimarie1520
Excellent point. Hadn't thought of that
@@debmadden4157 I hope I’m wrong and she was just a very naive mother so desperate for love that she had blinders on.
He's not going to last long in jail.
Pc
I dont think many people will be crying over this guy.
🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
Have you ever been in jail?? Funny how these internet bots think somebody will raoe you and kill you cause you hirt somebody third...
Maddie’s mother is just as guilty!!!!! She knew something after FIVE YEARS OF ABUSE!!! A mother knows!!!
Absolutely!!! A mother ALWAYS knows. Smh.
This is a capital punishment case. Hands down. I know some people don't believe in it, but I have a feeling that they'd make an exception for this monster.
To prove first degree murder you have to show premeditated intent. That's why it's such a hard burden of proof to show.
If they didn't for casey Anthony and the parkland shooter, I don't think they will here either sadly.
The mom was involved in she knew what he was doing to that child. She should be charged. To
I do not understand this world, so much evil. Why do so many harm innocent children? What a life this little girl had 😥 rest in peace sweet heart.
Maddie, you deserved so much better out of the 13 years you had on earth. I’m so sorry for your suffering 🖤
The mother needs the same punishment don't tell me she didn't know...
We don't know if she knew, because there's been cases where these sick puppies would threaten their victim to kill everyone she knows if she says one word about it. Her mom, dad, grandparents, siblings. Sterns might be one of those sick puppies.
What about the mother should held accountable as well
😢
Evil and selfish!
I would like to know WHY!!!!!
his rap sheet sounds like he tried to have an orgy with a whole kindergarten class
@@florl.delgado4093probably didn’t want her to tell anyone . She may have fought back, threatened to tell or maybe became pregnant ? If he drugged her every time he abused her what if the last time she woke up, so he panicked and didn’t want her to tell? Not sure but those are my guesses .
@@Bubblegum12345😢
Targeted the mom to get to the child and the child became self confident enough to snitch.
Or she was pregnant and he had to hide it. She looked pregnant in her birthday photos to me, but I could be wrong. I think he actually was sad in that interview. He doesn't have his toy to use for his fun anymore. He had to get rid of her to hide what he's been doing
The mother should be charged as well for bringing that monster into her home
On his Facebook profile, he says he was a cast member at Walt Disney World. Hope they investigate that..Hopefully there will not be any victims there.
@JustBethAnne~
I didn't know he was an employee @WDW. Eeew he's the sicko that would hide cameras in womens bathrooms.
That doesn’t surprise me since they have found loads of sickos working there
Charge the mom also! She damn sure knew exactly what was happening to her daughter and that she was killed! Her interviews are all over the place. The math just isn't mathing!!
If she was innocent she would be speaking up for her daughter thanking police for finding her and her killer
Not keeping quiet and disappearing
This makes me sick…😢
WOODCHIPPER
What about the mother ?
NOW WHERE'S MOMMA IN ALL THIS? A WITNESS AGAINST HIM OR HIDING OUT BC OF HER GUILT?
Very relieved to hear murder charges filed. Anginette and The Sarge are the best of the best!
RIP SWEET BABY GIRL!!
The mother should be charged too. I don’t trust her one bit.
Rest peacefully sweetheart. ❤
If there are any other cases out there worse than this one I don't wanna know about it!
There is, I watched one on tv folbig is her name, a woman committing gross violations and infanticide ......sick world, the girl was six, also one I watched ,,, no too sick to repeat it.....
This. 😢
there are a ton of them
There is, and I wish I hadn't found out about them. They literally haunt me. Make me sick. I truly wish I had never seen the documentaries. I can't watch documentaries about crime on children anymore. It's too disturbing and I have children too. This world is full of evil people. Namaste.
Every day these types of crimes are happening and many are just as tragic as this one
Will the " mom" be Charged? She's very Suspicious in my opinion! It seems as if she knows something!
When will we see JS perp walked? No way in heck she didn’t know he was SAing this child. I suspect the autopsy will reveal why she was murdered. I also suspect her mother allowed this to continue to keep Sterns around.
As a Mom you cant convince me that she had no idea what was happening to Maddie all those years at the hands of her live in boyfriend 😒
Dude's image literally looks like a facial composite
Please stop putting pictures of her next to him in your thumbnails
That poor girl suffered horribly & mom needs to be looked at more closely or there is no justice. 😢
Just like the Crumbleys were convicted of basically causing their son to be a school shooter or certainly didn't stop him, so should Madelines mother be charged for letting that creep around her daughter. You can't tell me she didn't know about the CSAM
Thanks for having me on Law and Crime!
Haven't I seen you on the True Crime Daily podcast w/ Ana Garcia before as well?
@@lila-gracenunyasun1334 No, I haven’t been on that one, however, I’ve been on a number of show on Law and Crime
What about the mother turning blind eye. Disgusting
I hope they lock this witch egg donor up too! No way she didnt know he was hurting her
Moms need to start picking better men. Do a full on background check. Sure some slip through the cracks , but stop letting just any man in your home .
It's not just a mom thing.
Audrii Cunningham's dad allowed his friend to live in a camper in his parents' backyard, and they allowed that monster to be alone with Audrii.
Gannon Stauch's dad married a monster, and she brutally murdered Gannon and drove miles away to dispose of his body.
Parents need to do better at protecting their children and maybe having talks with their children to let them know that if they're being abused that they need to tell a trusted adult.
Maybe install some spy cameras to see 👀 how their partners are acting with their children whenever they're not home.
he did not have a record ..in fact him working at Disney prob helped his cover
If dude was never caught, he'd have a clean record. Police checks are not a safeguard.
@@maryannenizio5074I wouldn’t think working there would help since they have found loads of sickos working there
@@maryannenizio5074working at Disney is a red flag to me.
I haven't seen this picture of Maddie before. I'm crying now at how happy she was and how horrible her life ended not long after her birthday party. It's so sad and that man is one sick sick animal!!!
When is the mother going to be charged? Guilty AF.
What about the mother???
Why isnt the mother being arrested?
The mom definitely involved. She told reporters “WE dropped her off”. This monster said “I dropped her off”. I hope the mom will be charged. Poor Maddie.
The mother was the main reason this happened to her daughter! The mother allowed the abuse!
Disgusting mother she needs to be in jail!
It should be against the law for women to move in men when they have children!!
Now charge the mother!!!!!!
The fact he said she was asleep on the way to school makes me think she was already dead in the car. That is so sad. I’m a recently single mom and have this conflict between a natural desire to have a love life but always needing to have a watchful eye over who’s around my daughter. Unlike the comments judging moms who date, I’ll just say definitely teach your daughters early that it’s safe to come to you if anyone ever touches them in the wrong way and never ever leave your child alone with a man they aren’t related to, that’s just my opinion because it’s not reasonable for everyone to never find love again but we have to be careful
Never leave kids with men even if they are related. They can't be trusted with children or animals.
That poor girl! How does mom not have any idea? RIP girl....
She was 8 years old when he started touching Maddie & mom never knew ! Come now ! Her interview said we she included him dropping her off !
Nice job Joe! So glad Jersey Jenn led me to your channel😊
the mother who does nothing is worse than the perpetrator
IF she knew.
where is her mother?
Why does the mother get to walk away freely and is not considered a suspect!!!!!!!
She looks guilty and not convincing in her interview. She didn’t even call 911!!! She was in on it 💯
Maddie's despicable mother needs to be charged as well. Don't tell me she didn't know what was going on she becuz lied sooooo many times throughout thatt interview!
Maddie should have been kept Safe!! This is Devastating! The Death Penalty is Appropriate!
He didn't even try to hide his crimes.
What a very sick monster and the mother should go right along with him !!! As a mother she knew !!
Her mother knew everything
His Facebook intro says he was a cast member at Walt Disney World. Doing what? How much access to children did he have???
Great question
Something tells me the mom knew what he was doing to her daughter! It happened for years how could she not know!???
I don't think she knew until the end. I never told anyone about my Dad SA me, my mom went to her grave never knowing. Honestly, I think she suspected him after Maddie went missing but didn't want to belive it
Heartbreaker
An insufferable crime, beyond comprehension.
What took them 2 months to charge him? They already had him on surveillance, getting rid of her school backpack among other belongings. Plus he supposedly had a flat tire near the area where she was found.
I think to say she is a grieving mom is a stretch
Parents should be charged for negligence and failure to protect their children!!!!
He is truly the image of evil..This is why being divorced I never had another man in my house until my daugher was grown and out living on her own
My heart goes out to Maddie! So young!🥀🥀🥀🙏🙏🙏💔💔💔🕊️🕊️🕊️ Prayers for Justice 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Killer her after her birthday party that's sick 😢. Rip she didn't even have a chance with a mother like that
Poor baby girl
He should have to appear physically in court.
This is sick & it’s no way that mother didn’t know charge her too…. S.I.P babygirl 🥺
made me sick in the stomach looking LIST of charges.
Why would you not pursue death penalty? If ever a case qualified to the letter, this is it.
First time seeing his interview. Bad, bad, horrible liar. Completely obvious.
100% why women choose bears…
RIP to that little girl
Not all men are like this sick individual
So sad. RIP MADDIE ❤❤❤❤❤
Maddie should have been in the custody of her dad and stepmom. It's clear that her mom didn't think her own daughter was a top priority for her.
My friend was a single mom of four kids who refused to date until her kids were adults because of reasons like this.
Joe you taught me well to be patient and don't bother those cops there working there buts off. Trust the process. Thanks again joe. By the way you have a great channel.
Are you seriously thinking the mother had no idea that those pics were in his phone?
Years of footage? 🤔
He’s every parents worst nightmare 😡 They now need to arrest the mother their both guilty …RIP Maddie 😇ur safe now with all your Angels😇💜
DEPRESSING REALITY...R.I.P.
Gotta love all those "ah" and "um" s. Is toastmasters still a thing?
😢😢😢sad
YES, FINALLY!
JUSTICE FOR MADDIE. 🙏🏻
🌸🌸🌸
I CANNOT stand seeing his face! How does he get to not show up in court ? Does anyone know ?
Takes a lot to make me sick, but this one did it... Horrifying.
I never noticed how bad she’s shaking in the news interview. She neeeeeervous for not the right reasons
Have Joe back often!
"Cast member at Walt Disney World"??? nooooo
