On the stand this morning was Kingsbury's mother, Krista Hultgren. She spoke about a phone conversation between her and Kingsbury from September of 2021. She testified Maddi was hysterical during the phone call. According to Hultgren, Kingsbury said Fravel put his hands around her throat and threatened she would "end up like Gabby Petito." Hultgren said she told Kingsbury to end the relationship, but Kingsbury did not want to.
David Kingsbury, Madeline's father, was the next to take the stand. He told the court the majority of his conversations with Maddi focused on her frustrations with Fravel after their first child was born. He said Maddi wasn't getting the help she needed from Fravel, and he seemed uncaring in the relationship. He described Fravel as aloof and mentioned how during a Thanksgiving gathering he never interacted with the family and stayed in a bedroom.
