    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 11: Final Reflections on Madeline Soto’s Death – A Family Broken

    This final call is intimate, painful, and emotionally overwhelming. Stephan reflects on what he’s lost — including Madeline Soto — though even now, he stops short of accountability.
    His mother expresses her unwavering love. His father sounds exhausted. This is a family at the end of its rope, trying to hold on to something human in the aftermath of something inhuman.
    The Madeline Soto murder case ends in silence. Not with answers — but with echoes.

    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 10: “When I Get Out…” – Fantasies After Madeline Soto’s Death

    Stephan Sterns talks about what he’ll do when he’s released — start a trust fund, get a job, rebuild. But here’s the catch: he’s facing the death penalty in the murder of Madeline Soto.
    This call is surreal, heart-wrenching, and filled with impossible hope. His parents play along, not because they believe, but because they love.
    This conversation reveals the fragile fantasy of future in the face of irreversible loss — and the staggering emotional toll of the Madeline Soto murder case.

  • Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 9: “Were You Abused?” – Parents Search for Answers in Madeline Soto Case

    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 9: “Were You Abused?” – Parents Search for Answers in Madeline Soto Case
    Apr 9 2025
    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 9: “Were You Abused?” – Parents Search for Answers in Madeline Soto Case

    This is one of the most heartbreaking and revealing calls in the series. Stephan’s mother, choking back emotion, asks the question many parents fear but feel compelled to ask: “Were you ever abused?”
    She’s searching. For answers. For blame. For something that explains how her son could be involved in something as devastating as the murder of Madeline Soto.
    Stephan gives vague, unclear answers about early experiences, but nothing conclusive. This call dives into the psychology of trauma, and how families try to rewrite their history to survive the present.

  • Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 8: Puppies, Root Beer & the Shadow of Madeline Soto’s Murder

    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 8: Puppies, Root Beer & the Shadow of Madeline Soto’s Murder
    Apr 8 2025
    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 8: Puppies, Root Beer & the Shadow of Madeline Soto’s Murder

    While his mother tends to a dog giving birth, Stephan talks about root beer barrel candy, commissary price hikes, and snack strategy. You’d never guess this is a man accused of murdering a 13-year-old girl.
    But that’s what makes this call so unsettling. It’s quiet. Casual. And profoundly disturbing. Because in the background of this light conversation is the death of Madeline Soto — a tragedy no one can face directly.
    This is what emotional dissociation sounds like. And it’s chilling.

  • Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 7: Religious Reflection or Avoidance? Faith & the Madeline Soto Case

    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 7: Religious Reflection or Avoidance? Faith & the Madeline Soto Case
    Apr 7 2025
    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 7: Religious Reflection or Avoidance? Faith & the Madeline Soto Case

    In Call 7, Stephan turns heavily to scripture. He talks about Exodus, redemption, forgiveness — but not about Madeline Soto. His mother references Romans. His father jokes about vending machine coffee. It’s a coping mechanism, a refuge in routine and belief.
    But the deeper truth is this: faith, in this moment, isn’t helping anyone face reality. It’s being used to explain away what happened to Madeline Soto without ever saying her name.
    This episode asks: is faith helping this family heal? Or is it helping them avoid the darkest parts of the truth?

  • Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 6: Death Penalty Confirmed in Madeline Soto Murder – Family in Crisis

    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 6: Death Penalty Confirmed in Madeline Soto Murder – Family in Crisis
    Apr 6 2025
    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 6: Death Penalty Confirmed in Madeline Soto Murder – Family in Crisis
    This call begins with a cold, clinical announcement from Stephan: “They’re seeking the death penalty.” His tone is serene, disturbingly so. His parents, though visibly shaken, try to stay calm — but you can hear the heartbreak crack through.
    Stephan explains that his attorneys are assembling a team. His mother distracts herself by cooking ravioli. His father begins thinking through legal paperwork. But the shadow of death — and the death of Madeline Soto — looms over everything.
    This conversation reveals a terrifying truth: this isn’t just a murder case. It’s a possible execution. And this family is trying to survive the unbearable weight of it.

    Apr 5 2025
    Stephan Sterns Jail House Calls – Call 5: Saltines and Silence – Life Inside While Facing Madeline Soto Murder Charges
    How does someone accused of murdering a child talk about saltine crackers and reading glasses as if nothing happened? That’s exactly what unfolds in this surreal fifth call between Stephan Sterns and his parents. As his parents express financial stress and emotional fatigue, Stephan discusses his favorite jail snacks, mackerel cans, and silicone chess pieces.
    Beneath the surface, there are flickers of something deeper. Stephan mentions “regret” — though it's unclear whether it’s for the crime, the consequences, or just being caught.
    The case of Madeline Soto continues to hang over everything, unspoken and massive. His parents are still trying to hold their son close while reality pushes him further away.
