Welp, this makes SS eligible for the DP under FL's new law.

Madeline Soto suspect Stephan Sterns doesn't show for court appearance

The suspect in the murder of 13-year-old Madeline Soto did not appear for his first court hearing as creepy footage emerged of him saying 'it's hard not to blame myself'.

Thank you! I’ll get the hang of it eventually!

I don't remember seeing this shared here, but the Hunter's Creek Middle School website has a photo of Madeline on the homepage. I was curious what exact color green was the school's color so I went to the website.

Which won't be long with Florida's new death penalty laws for child rape. Death penalty for child rape goes into effect in Florida

Is that possibly himself? So weird.

 

[Chimera]

This is one of the most disturbing cases I have seen on Websleuths.

I can't say what I would like due to TOS.

Poor child.

Ita.

Haven't seen this anywhere, but are there any siblings, or step siblings, at Madeleines' house ?
Was wondering if any other kids knew or suspected anything that was going on ?
Awful to think, but there may be other witnesses.
Omo.

The guy in the middle is a band member of the Stone Temple pilots when he was in radio club in the 70s.

Edit: and yes it's a super weird comment!!

From when asked by the interviewer what her fear is, does she think Maddie may have met someone and met up with them, JS says:

“From…she’s open to us, she’s open with us
about you know, if she’s got a crush with anyone and she told us she had a crush on someone at school. Um, and I looked at their messages, nothing was weird. I looked at all of her messages, all of her deleted messages…nothing seemed weird or it didn’t seem like she was talking to anyone, um, so I don’t feel like that’s the case. I feel like she might’ve been taken, um, just because this is not like her at all, to just disappear and not tell us, not let us know where she’s going or who she’s with. Um, yeah.”

Then the interviewer asks her next question..

Madeline Soto missing: Jenn Soto, Maddie's mom, talks daughter's disappearance (full interview)

Jenn Soto, Madeline Soto's mom, spoke to FOX 35's Hannah McKenzie this week about the disappearance of her 13-year-old daughter. "Maddie" Soto has been missing since Feb. 26, days after her 13th birthday, and hours after she was dropped up at school. Jenn Soto's boyfriend, Stephan Sterns...

There's something bugging me about this statement from JS.
The bit about it not being like Maddie to disappear and not say, not let them know where she's going. Except its also been stated it's not unusual for Maddie to forget her phone. If the circumstances in Maddie's story were different and SS was not involved any further than dropping her off at the church, near the school, and alive like he attempted to sell it, then the phone statement contradicts the not being like Maddie statement. She'd need her phone to let them know what she was planning on doing/going, which makes it very unusual that she didn't have her phone?
Believe I'd read in some initial alerts/reports that it was unusual for Maddie not to have contact with family/friends , so again, if Maddie was out of the house, she'd need something to make contact with family/friends, such as her phone. (Did look for what I'd read that stated that but haven't found it to link so will say moo, imo, jmo)

ykwim?

moo

Only if he's a time traveller. He's way too young.

...Said the car Stephan was driving was his father's vehicle.

I can’t speak to all people but if you routinely take Adderall because you are diagnosed with ADHD (I do and am), you still need the same amount of sleep. It doesn't give you any sort of wake up amphetamine rush or anything - because it’s in a very low dose - it just makes you be able to control your focus better so you can focus on one thing/stop hyper-focusing on others.​

Thank You for the Adderall info and for sharing, @BeeGirl. You mention you take a very low dose. You're taking medication responsibly, but I'm not sure if SS was doing such.

Listened to the beginning of the Frank video again. He says SS had an "Adderall Addiction". I don't know why he classifies it as an addiction, or why Frank makes it sound like SS might've been abusing it, saying SS "didn't eat much", "slept until 4:30-5:00 p.m. during the day, didn't have a job", got up early in the morning though.

Question-- if someone took more, higher doses, then wouldn't it maybe mess with their sleeping patterns and maybe speed them up? Looked up signs of abuse and it seems so. However, maybe although Frank calls it an addiction, he might be uninformed about the use as a medication. He describes SS as a regular guy, just a gamer, a nerd, but then Frank also implies he's got mental issues and is weird.

Slow down Frank, his rambling style makes it hard for the interviewer to pin down a timeline. My own notes on Frank talking are all over the place. If I got anything wrong, please correct me.

Frank implies that when SS lived at his parent's house he woke whenever he wanted, not working, but he had money for expensive gamer & tech things. Frank wonders where he was getting the money to buy such things.

He met JS once on Facetime. Garbled, I think Frank is saying it was SS who needed lots of patience with his "mental things". Wish Frank would slow down talking. I get a headache listening to his voice, but I do appreciate him filling in some blanks about SS.​

I do believe Madeleines' father and step mom will give her a beautiful memorial !

 

[FansBlowing]

Was Madeline an only child? I haven't heard about any siblings.

Any siblings, if any exist, are off limits by TOS.

Thank you for clarifying. I guess Sustinet is "all over the road" with his posts and laughing at myself now for even attempting to take one seriously. Sorry Mr. STP band member for any offense at the suggestion. Lol

Okay, well I certainly hope there aren't any more sisters in that household though.

Yes! I read those when it was signed. Every state should have that law.

 

[ar3593]

I get what you're saying, but isn't turning a blind eye to what was going on "helping"?

Someone on this thread posted this quote, I agree wholeheartedly:

“He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it." Martin Luther King Jr.

MOO

 

[lightofmine99]

What a creep. How did he even get that vibe from this? Ick

Yeah like, no Stephan, the bottom left guy just looks tired and maybe slightly annoyed. Or maybe he just suffers from RBF. Stop projecting your own thoughts and predilections onto other people. Yet more evidence to reinforce that friend's claim that SS was extremely hyper focused on sex. MOO.

He'll have many years of filing appeal after appeal first, but he won't be having any fun while doing so, rest assured.
