New videos of interviews related to the investigation into the disappearance and death of Madeline "Maddie" Soto were released last week by the Orange County Sheriff's Office. 

The videos show detectives questioning both Maddie Soto's mother, Jenn Soto, and her accused killer, Stephan Sterns. 

Madeline was first reported missing on Feb. 26 after she didn't make it to school that day, and her body was found in rural Osceola County on March 1. About two months later, Sterns – her mom's boyfriend – was charged with first-degree murder after investigators determined that the teenager was likely already dead before the school bell rang that day. Sterns was arrested two days before Maddie's body was found in a field.
