True Crime Today | A True Crime Podcast

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," defense attorney Bob Motta delves into the complexities surrounding the murder case of Madeline Soto, in which Stephan Sterns is charged with first-degree murder and faces the death penalty. The conversation focuses on the risks and implications of inmates communicating about their cases through letters or phone calls, despite repeated warnings from their legal counsel. Motta emphasizes how these communications can be used as evidence by the prosecution and discusses a specific instance where Stephan Sterns' mother wrote a letter that potentially implicates her in the case. The letter suggests she had knowledge of activities in the house related to the crime, raising questions about her involvement. Motta highlights the legal ramifications of such letters and the importance of building a solid evidence-based case before making arrests, citing other cases like that of Alec Baldwin where premature arrests led to dropped charges. The discussion underscores the delicate balance between defending clients and the relentless pursuit of evidence by law enforcement.
