GUILTY MN - Madeline Jane Kingsbury, 26, mother of 2, Winona, 31 Mar 2023 *arrest* #2

Second degree with intent , sounds more serious than just second degree murder... almost like LE have evidence of premeditation ?
He is being held on suspicion of 2nd degree intentional murder without premeditation. Obviously that could change as more info is gathered. And he is only being held on suspicion of that charge at this time.

It's likely they located her and then made an arrest.

Exactly, timing? Maybe he told LE where she was and once they verified it he was officially arrested. Just speculating.

RIP sweet Maddie and it's time for justice for you!!

Without realizing it, I was still holding some hope in my heart that Maddi was alive somehow, somewhere. This news made me so very sad. My heart goes out to her children and her family.

He looks like a creep. So sorry for her family and babies. If I'm not mistaken location found to where he was living is insanely close. Mere miles .

Mabel is about 60 miles southeast of Rochester and 45 miles south of Winona. It is just north of the Iowa border.

My heart breaks for Maddie's family & friends. I am so relieved they found her. Now justice will be served.

No longer will Maddi's sweet voice sing lovely lullabies to her babies but may her remains scream from the grave to seal his fate, far and away from those precious babies.

I am gutted for her family.

My husband and I spent a little time in Lansboro and Preston Memorial weekend. It was so sad to see Maddie's missing signs all over. I will be keeping her family and friends in my thoughts and waiting for justice.

I have to say I hope there are signs found of some premeditation. I don’t want him walking free, ever.

At least someone is finally being held accountable.

I agree and even though it's not the ending everyone was hoping for not knowing would be worse IMO. :(
