      @@jenreilly8058 It's not obvious to me. What is obvious to me is that she was either a negligent oblivious person with severe mental health issues who shouldn't have had custody in the first place or she was complicit. What happened to that poor minor child was systematic rape and abuse lasting for years upon years leading to the death of the child. Jennifer Soto doesn't get a medal for failing her only child in such a horrific way just because she hasn't been charged. And unless you know her personally you have no way to know what she was or was not aware of and if you do know, I hope you shared that with police. And know this, that "mother" didn't fail Maddie once or even twice. Look at how many times according to court documents that Stephan raped her daughter and really think about how many times Maddie was actually failed. Stephan was charged with 60 counts of CSAM. That's alot of failure. So much failure, in fact, that it looks almost deliberate.

But rumors say, that she's at a mental health clinic, which is actually a common move for suspects to avoid being questioned. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Charge that "so called" mother! She covered these Horrendous acts towards precious Madeleine. NO good Mother would ever miss the signs of these horrible acts upon their child especially for that length of time! HELL is awaiting them both!!!
    RIP Beautiful Madeleine ❤

    Police chief spends too much time on praising her department. No time providing information on the case. We dont need a press conference held for a who an ego trip for her and her department. Until you can provide info to yhe public, withhold on the press conferences.

    This is the worst way to do anything on the news is you show the podium for 10 minutes nobody's going to stick and watch that

    We know Sterns was the last person to see the child alive. Bottom line, Sterns drove Maddie to school that day. I would be interested in knowing Maddie's autopsy results and in knowing the time of death and how she died. That would tell us all we need to know.
