1 00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:07,920 Speaker 1: Body dyings. But Joseph's gotten more the Male clinic. You 2 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 1: hear that name, and the first thing that comes to 3 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 1: mind for many of us is research. For those of 4 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:25,079 Speaker 1: us that have family members that have experienced seemingly insurmountable 5 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 1: odds when it comes to diseases, you see them as 6 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: a bit of a salvation because they have turned lives around. 7 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 1: They have given hope where hope did not previously exist, 8 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 1: at least in the sense of extending someone's life. Today, though, 9 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about a young woman who was 10 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: employee of the Mayo Clinic who died tragically and her 11 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: life ended as she was in the midst of pursuing 12 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: a graduate degree in one of my favorite areas of study, 13 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: which is public health, and she didn't get to see 14 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: the end the success of that great academic achievement. Instead, 15 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: her death came about at the hands of someone who 16 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: at one time she trusted, and then that individual took 17 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: her and discarded her as if she meant nothing. I'm 18 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: Joseph Scott Morgan and this is bodybags, you know, Dave. 19 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: In medical legal death investigation, a big part of our 20 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 1: job is processing information, not just for the courts, not 21 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: just for police, but also for public health. We spend arguably, 22 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 1: I could say that we in my world, we actually 23 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: spend as much time gleaning data relative to end of 24 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: life circumstances as we do studying homicides and trauma and 25 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: that sort of thing. You know, because most of the 26 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: deaths that you handle at a corner of medical examiners 27 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: office are not traumatically related. They're certainly not all homicides. 28 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 1: The line chair of deaths are natural. And so having 29 00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: worked in Atlanta for over a decade, the CDC is 30 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: actually in Atlanta. It's technically, you know, into Cab County, 31 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 1: but it's immediately adjacent to Atlanta. So we would have 32 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,239 Speaker 1: their personnel that would come over and grab data from 33 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 1: us pretty regularly. We would see them come in and out, 34 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 1: and we had a really good working relationship with them. 35 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: And when it comes to this poor woman whose life 36 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: ended at the hands of an individual that cared not 37 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: for her any longer, and I'm talking about Madeline Mattie Kingsbury, 38 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: that was her life's work. That's what she had decided 39 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: to study, that's what she was looking to expand her 40 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: career into. She's working on a master's degree in public health, 41 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: and it's those people that study things like epidemiology that 42 00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: try to understand disease Jesus and how they impact us, 43 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: everything from smoking to drinking, to origins of cancer to 44 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you name it. It covers a broad spectrum. 45 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: You can choose to study just about anything that impacts 46 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: the human condition medically, and this case has touched so 47 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: many people's lives and it's so very tragic. I think 48 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: that's probably the last thing that people expected to happen. Dave. 49 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 2: It is an amazing story that I actually have been 50 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 2: covering this Joe since Madeline Kingsbury went missing. It was 51 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: mother of two, obviously brilliant based on her educational background 52 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 2: and what she was currently doing, and we were looking 53 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 2: for try to find this woman, and it actually begins 54 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 2: where she you know, you always go, Where was the 55 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 2: last time somebody saw her? And who was with her? 56 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 2: And all that we actually have. Can I ask you 57 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 2: something real quick, sure forgive me. Did you cover this 58 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 2: with Nancy Grace? 59 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: Yes? And did this initially come out as a missing person? Yeah, 60 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: you guys were working and covering that because I know Nancy, 61 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 1: she's you know, she's like a dog with a bone, 62 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: she'll she'll hook into a case like this, and it's 63 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 1: all about trying to find the person. 64 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 2: And that's what we were doing. That's why I was 65 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 2: on it from the first episode. I was covering it 66 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 2: from the beginning. We did it several times with updates, 67 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 2: trying to find her, getting out information because you have 68 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: this mother of two. She's twenty six years old, she's young, 69 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 2: she's brilliant, and she's missing. I mean, so not only 70 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 2: do you have a person, but you've got a mom. 71 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 2: She's got two small children. Their ages are five and 72 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 2: two years old, and she is missing. And so yeah, 73 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 2: we covered it. She actually was seen Madeline Kingsbury and 74 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 2: Adam Fravel, he is the father to her children. They 75 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 2: are seen just after eight am dropping their five year 76 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 2: old and two year old off at the daycare. They 77 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 2: are together, and I point that out because that wasn't 78 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 2: the norm. They didn't always go together to drop the 79 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 2: children off at daycare. Also, Madeline Kingsbury, she regularly texted 80 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 2: back and forth with her family members, and she was 81 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 2: also very quickly. She wasn't one of these people that 82 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 2: you would text and hope she got back to you 83 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 2: within several hours. She was an immediate retext. It was 84 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 2: a communication that she did. And the last thing that 85 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 2: she responded to was at eight fifteen that morning, and 86 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 2: it was responding to a joker sister had sent or something, 87 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 2: a funny picture or whatever. But it was that lack 88 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 2: of contact with family and friend that immediately said something's 89 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 2: not quite right. So we have Adam Fravelle and Madeline 90 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: Kingsbury with their dropping their children off together at daycare 91 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 2: round eight am. At eight fifteen, Madeline responds to a 92 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 2: comedic picture sent to texted to her by her sister, 93 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: and from that moment on we know that they got 94 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 2: home to their house. There's security cameras showing her car 95 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 2: pulling in. She's there at her house and at eight 96 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 2: fifteen nothing, She no longer responds to any text messages 97 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 2: or answers the phone, and she vanishes. She vanishes off 98 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 2: the face of the earth. Her the father of her children, 99 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 2: Adam Fravell. He is seen leaving the house about ten 100 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 2: o'clock that morning, a little laughter ten. He drives around 101 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 2: and police were able to track his whereabouts because of 102 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 2: security cameras and phone pings and things like that, and 103 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 2: so they know where he went, where he traveled and 104 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 2: when he returned and he's doing these things out on 105 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 2: the oven. But again, Madeline Kingsbury is seen going into 106 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 2: her house but never leaving, never emerging right. So when 107 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 2: her family realizes they haven't talked to her, can't get 108 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 2: her on the phone. This is so out of the ordinary, 109 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 2: they call police. Would you please check on our sister 110 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 2: daughter and see what's going on. Adam Fravel tells police 111 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 2: that he didn't hear from her either. You know, he 112 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 2: had run his errands and he came back home and 113 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 2: he didn't hear from her. She would normally pick the 114 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 2: children up at school, but she wasn't responding to text 115 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 2: messages or anything. She didn't show up to pick up 116 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 2: the kids. So he went and got the kids, and 117 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 2: he took the children because he couldn't get up with Madeline. 118 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 2: He got the children in a daycare and took them 119 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 2: to his parents' house and returned back home. So that's 120 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: where we are with the welfare check. The children are 121 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 2: now at Adam's parents' house. Madeleine is gone, but her purse, 122 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 2: her keys, her phone, her vehicle are at the house. 123 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 2: That's when we picked up the story, Joe. That's the 124 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: first time I started covering it was with that an 125 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 2: area that I just gave you what. 126 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: A you know, and I know that this happens. It's 127 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: never happened to me personally, okay, but what an odd dynamic, huh. 128 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: You know when you think about that, that you're you're 129 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: no longer going to move forward with a relationship, right 130 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: yet you're still living under the same roof. And listen, 131 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: I understand times are tough all over, you know what 132 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: I'm saying, financially, and sometimes you know you have to 133 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: be in that space because you need a roof over 134 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: your head. But can you It's hard to fathom that 135 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: someone that you know that you're not going to move 136 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: forward with, that you're still occupying that same space. And 137 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: it's not just a space, it's an intimate home environment. 138 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: It's your domicile, you know, where you're living with this 139 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: person and you're also living there with your children. And 140 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 1: I was just thinking about, you know, this idea of 141 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: her and him dropping the children off together, and that's 142 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: you know, you wonder and I think I thought about this, 143 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: you know, when we were talking about doing this case. 144 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:20,719 Speaker 1: Do you think that there was an attempt at reconciliation 145 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: on some level, that maybe some seed had been planted, 146 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: you know, let's go, let's go out and you know, 147 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: and let's go drop the kids off together, you know, 148 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: and maybe that there was some kind of indication that maybe, 149 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: you know, hope springs eternal. I have no idea. And 150 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: then suddenly something is triggered that pushes this set of 151 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: circumstances off the rails to the point where she literally 152 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: vanishes into thin air. And we're not talking about she's 153 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: vanished and she's taken all the stuff out of the 154 00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 1: house and she's left. Dude, She's vanished and everything that 155 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 1: she would need to subsist on, even if it was 156 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: by herself. And I cannot imagine, and I know that 157 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 1: it has happened, but I can't imagine, particularly with somebody 158 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: as precious as Matteline seems like she was, that she 159 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: would just abandon her kids with no thought and just 160 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: leave and go, you know, cast caution to the wind. 161 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: And as we all know, Dave, in all of these 162 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: circumstances of cases like this, the first person we're going 163 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: to look at is going to be the intimate partner 164 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: in a particular case, because it's stranger on stranger crime 165 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: is so rare when compared to domestic issues, Dave. And 166 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,599 Speaker 1: of course there's a lot kind of bubbling beneath the 167 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: surface here. 168 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 2: And is that what's bubbling underneath the surface that has 169 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 2: everyone's attention? I want to share something very quickly, Joe, 170 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 2: because as police are called to do the welfare check, 171 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: they are given information about the relationship because they need 172 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 2: to know what are we walking into. Yeah, And they 173 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 2: are given information from family and friends about the relationship 174 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 2: between Adam Frable and Madeline Kingsbury. And there's one particular 175 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 2: story that is told by a friend of Madeleine's. She 176 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 2: was holding the youngest baby they were doing. She was 177 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 2: doing a FaceTime call with a friend of hers. Okay, 178 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 2: she's at the house, she's cooking dinner, she has child 179 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 2: in one hand, and she's on the phone and she's 180 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 2: cooking dinner. And the friend relates how Adam Fravel is 181 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 2: in the living room area playing a video game and 182 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 2: he comes into the kitchen area and is seen by 183 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 2: the person because she's doing the FaceTime call. Adam walks 184 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 2: into frame and he's yelling at Madeleine to be quiet 185 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 2: on the phone because he can't hear his game, and 186 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 2: he smacks her in the face. The person on the 187 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 2: other end of this FaceTime call sees him hit her 188 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 2: in the face and starts putting two and two together 189 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 2: on other things she has seen in the past. This 190 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 2: is something that is related to police eyewitness first hand 191 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 2: account of what they have seen Adam Fravel and Madeline's relationship. 192 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 2: Right violence over a video game. Yeah, she's holding their 193 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 2: baby and cooking dinner and he explodes. Police know this 194 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: as they're talking to Frabel at all times. 195 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: Well. One of the chilling things about this is the 196 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 1: fact that if a subject will do this in view 197 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: of another person, particularly when there's a child present, what 198 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: would they be capable love when no one else is looking. 199 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: Think about investigations when you are looking for a missing 200 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: person and you have them in a location where they live, 201 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: that is the last place they were seeing alive, and 202 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: then suddenly they vanish into thin air. It is, in fact, 203 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: like chasing a ghost. You're having to go back and backtrack. 204 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: And Dave, if I'm not mistaken, this was you know, 205 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: a full court press relative to relative to trying to 206 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: seek out where where this poor woman is, and it 207 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: wasn't like she was just gone for a short period 208 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: of time, right, I mean, she disappears, dude, and she 209 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: is gone, man, she just vaporizes. Can you fill us 210 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 1: in a little bit about this. 211 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 2: Well, police start there, you know, they know they've got 212 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 2: her going in. They have a timetable here, which is 213 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 2: kind of fascinating to me because oftentimes we have a guess, well, 214 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 2: when was the last time you saw them? You know, 215 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: was it this day or that day? I mean, it 216 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 2: can be vague, and it's really important to know where 217 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 2: do we start looking when do we start looking. Well, 218 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 2: in this particular case, we know that her last text 219 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 2: message was at eight fifteen. We know she dropped the 220 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 2: children off at eight o'clock, and she was with Adam 221 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 2: Fravel during both of these instances, dropping the children off 222 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 2: together and sending the text message, replying back and forth 223 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 2: with her sister Megan. Now we know they got home 224 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 2: because her car is there. Then from there on out 225 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 2: the story gets weeds. I give you an example. This 226 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 2: is some information we got from the police department investigators 227 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 2: and talking about how she and Mayham were replying back 228 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 2: and forth to funny pictures and other text messages that 229 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 2: Madeline was getting during the course of that day, and 230 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 2: you know, they talk about how it was on a Friday, 231 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 2: and while everyone gets busy, even the most text active 232 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 2: people have a day where they don't reply as much 233 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 2: or as fast as normal. And that's brought into this 234 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 2: equation from the messages earlier that day. Even though, as 235 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 2: I mentioned, she was one of these people that you 236 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 2: send her a text, she replied quickly, I'm kind of 237 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 2: that person. I try to reply very quickly, and so 238 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 2: it's out of character and they kind of put all 239 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 2: this into play. But it's when she didn't pick up 240 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 2: the children at daycare. Five year old Ileana and two 241 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,919 Speaker 2: year old Noah did not pick her children up from daycare. 242 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,360 Speaker 2: It's determined that she did not go to work that day. 243 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 2: This is important because we know she got home with 244 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 2: the van and according to her boyfriend or the ex 245 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: the significant other, that you know they're breaking up. But 246 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 2: according to mister Frable, she was leaving to go to 247 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 2: work that day. She had to go into her office 248 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 2: and where she normally worked at home, she did go 249 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 2: in occasionally, and this was the day she was going 250 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 2: into the office. He leaves the house and runs errands 251 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 2: when he comes back, she's not there. He says he 252 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 2: assumed she's gone to the office, but he can't get 253 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 2: her on the phone. She's not replying to text. That's 254 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 2: why he decides to go pick up the children at 255 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 2: the daycare. Since he can't get up with her, he 256 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 2: takes the children to her parents, his parents' house. The 257 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 2: chief of Police of the Winona Police Department, Tom Wilson, 258 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you a direct quote from him because 259 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 2: he said, we believe of they're tracking the movements of 260 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 2: trying to track the movements of Matteling because she's the 261 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 2: one missing. We believe a van similar to Mattie's van 262 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 2: was driven up County Road twelve and Highway forty three 263 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 2: in Winona County and then southbound on Highway forty three 264 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 2: through the eastern part of Fillmore County. Later, a van 265 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 2: similar to Maddie's traveled back toward Buynona on Highway forty three. 266 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 2: All this occurred between ten am and one thirty pm. 267 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 2: We believe the van remained parked in the driveway of 268 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 2: Mattie's residence from one thirty pm on. We know that 269 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 2: Adam Frable was gone from the house between ten am 270 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 2: and one thirty because he told them, so, now you 271 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,640 Speaker 2: have Adam Frable in her van something he didn't only 272 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 2: drive in her vehicle, driving around these locations where they've 273 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 2: used just so you know, between cell phone pings or 274 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 2: things like that, they've actually used ring doorbell cameras and 275 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 2: things like that, security cameras along the way. And they 276 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 2: that's why they say a van similar because they see 277 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 2: the van on these security cameras and they know it's her. 278 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 2: I mean, they just can't say that. They know it's 279 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 2: her van, but they also know it's not her driving 280 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 2: the van. So they have this thing going all over 281 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 2: the place and they know it's him. So the chief 282 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 2: says this nothing to date has indicated that Maddy left 283 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 2: the residence on foot or in another vehicle. It's important, 284 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 2: don't you think? 285 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it truly is, because how does she just vaporize? 286 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: And we're talking about a pretty big geographic area and 287 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: so everybody knows, well, Noah County is due south of 288 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: what they refer to as the Twin Cities in Minnesota, 289 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: so you know Minneapolis, Saint Paul, and it's kind of 290 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: a rural area out there. It's the population density is 291 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: nothing like Hennepin County. You know where Minneapolis Saint Paul is. 292 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: And interestingly enough for those that don't, no one ownA 293 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: county and the county seat Wanona is where one own 294 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: a Rider gets her name from because she was born there. 295 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,959 Speaker 1: And so you've got this town that they lived in. 296 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: It's a beautiful little town. It sits literally right at 297 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 1: you know, right on the Mississippi River. Uh so it's 298 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: right on the state border up there. Uh and in 299 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 1: a beautiful area of Minnesota is a gorgeous place. You've 300 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 1: ever been there, And so you've got a lot of 301 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: it's a huge geographic area, a lot of unimproved roads, 302 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: gravel roads, these sorts of things, farming communities, that sort 303 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 1: of thing. So it's not just so simple as to say, well, 304 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 1: we know that she's going to be specifically in this location, 305 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: because once you start to get outside of that ring 306 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: of and yeah, you know kind of doftne which's a 307 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 1: ring cams. 308 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 2: Uh. 309 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: But you get outside of that ring of CCTV coverage 310 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: that sort of thing, you're kind of, you know, walking 311 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: around in the dark without a cane at that point 312 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: in time, So you can have as many eyes on 313 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: this thing as you want to have on it, Dave. 314 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: But when you have a vast area like this, there's 315 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: no way to kind of pin it down. We I 316 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 1: think that we would we take comfort to a certain 317 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: degree regarding the amount of technology that kind of in 318 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,120 Speaker 1: dwells and intertwines in our life. But there there are 319 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 1: no guarantees you know, that we're going to be able 320 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 1: to track anybody down whatsoever. And in a case like this, 321 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: the important person to be tracking is going to be 322 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: the ex boyfriend. You know, where here's movements, because when 323 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 1: it comes down to it, he's the last point, last 324 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: known point of contact. You remember you said just a 325 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 1: moment ago that got col She goes in, he comes out, 326 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: and she's never to be seen again. 327 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 2: They right, And that's the part that the police point 328 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 2: out early on. You know, police are cagy like this. 329 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 2: They they say things that let the perpetrator know that 330 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 2: they need to be worried, because if you push somebody 331 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 2: into a stressful situation, they can mess things up, they 332 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 2: can say the wrong thing, change their story. And so 333 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 2: police are not saying, hey, he did something to her. 334 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 2: They're merely pointing out basic facts that we saw her. 335 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 2: We know she went in, We know that he left. 336 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 2: He's gone between ten and one thirty. Her car never 337 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 2: moves again after one thirty, and she's never seen leaving 338 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 2: the house. We know she did not leave on her own, 339 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 2: So this is what the officer talked about. After that, 340 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 2: he says nothing indicates that Maddy left the residence on foot, 341 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 2: her in another vehicle, and he says nothing to date, 342 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,439 Speaker 2: nothing to take meaning up to this moment, we got nothing. 343 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 2: The public has asked if we are currently looking for 344 00:22:59,480 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 2: the van. 345 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: We are not. 346 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 2: Investigators have searched the van and the residence. Inside the residence, 347 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,679 Speaker 2: investigators located Maddie's phone, the jacket she had been wearing 348 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 2: earlier in the morning, along with her wallet and ID. 349 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 2: Mattie's family and friends tried to contact Mattie throughout the 350 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 2: day on March thirty first, without success. It was unlike 351 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 2: her not to respond. Based on all of this, we 352 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 2: believe Mattie's disappearance is involuntary, suspicious, and we are all 353 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 2: concerned for her safety. 354 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: Let me back up here just one second. Well, first off, 355 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: who walks out of the house without their personal belongings 356 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: and who in the hell walks out of their house 357 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: in Minnesota on March thirty first, without their jacket. Because 358 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,359 Speaker 1: I don't know much an old Southern guy, I do 359 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 1: know this Minnesota is cold, and particularly that time of year, 360 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: it's still very cold. That's her favorite jacket that she 361 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 1: wears on a regular basis. You know what. I guess 362 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 1: she could have changed jackets or perhaps, but you know, 363 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 1: they make a they make an issue of the fact 364 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 1: that she walked in clothes in that jacket. We know 365 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 1: that she left in that jacket to drop the kids 366 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,919 Speaker 1: off and then but she leaves that behind. I think 367 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 1: that's that's important because you know, when you're when you're 368 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: kind of gauging one of these things, you're thinking about 369 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 1: health and welfare, right, they are suspicious because it's not 370 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 1: just that they're thinking that maybe something nefarious has happened, 371 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: you know, like a homicide. They're thinking, well, what if 372 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: she's having a mental health crisis, you know, and she 373 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: wanders away from the house. Because people do that, you know, 374 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: they don't have a sense of, you know, being uncomfortable 375 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: at that point because they're so distressed. They might have 376 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 1: an awareness later on, but they could walk out of 377 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: the house without a jacket on it, but as an investigator, 378 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 1: that's a significant piece of information, and. 379 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 2: Police say early on, we believe she's in danger. We 380 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 2: believe she did not leave on her own. I think 381 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,439 Speaker 2: that's a really important part of the entire story of 382 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 2: all of this, is her disappearance is involuntary and suspicious, 383 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 2: because this is all we know, Joe, this right here. 384 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,479 Speaker 2: All the searches that follow after this, we're talking family 385 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:32,120 Speaker 2: and friends, everybody point out this is a very smart, 386 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 2: beautiful mom. She's a woman who I mean, you look 387 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 2: at how she's described and it's like I'm looking at 388 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 2: pictures of her to see if i can see the 389 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 2: angel wings. This is a person that is very highly 390 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 2: thought of, and people truly care about her because of 391 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 2: the type of individual she is. And all of them 392 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 2: are concerned because they know who Adam Frabil is. They 393 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 2: know they've seen the domestic violence, they know they have 394 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 2: seen this man I think you mentioned minute ago. Somebody 395 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 2: that would smack her and talk to her in such 396 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 2: a way while she's on the phone with a friend 397 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 2: shows you a lack of self control and a violent 398 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 2: tendency that he thinks it's okay to show this side 399 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 2: of him to somebody else. It's a crazy control thing. 400 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 1: I guess. 401 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 2: I'm not sure, but right away they knew he's a problem. 402 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 2: He is a big problem. He's got a documented history 403 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,640 Speaker 2: of a domestic violence against Kingsbury, including there was an 404 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:30,199 Speaker 2: incident where he actually struck her, you know, while on 405 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 2: that video phone call that is documented by the friend. 406 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,360 Speaker 2: And the police have all that information I was telling 407 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 2: you about earlier, so they already know all of this 408 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 2: about Adam Fravell, and they know he's the last person 409 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 2: with her. They know he took off in her vehicle 410 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:49,199 Speaker 2: and drove all around this area. So they can't find 411 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 2: Madeline again, a mother of two who's all about her children, 412 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 2: and they know she's dead at this point. They're not stupid. 413 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 2: They just have to prove it. But they got to 414 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 2: find her, and you. 415 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: Know, Dave, that's the most ominous piece of all. The 416 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: police know that something horrible has occurred involving Madeline, perhaps 417 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: the loss of her life. But the big question is 418 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: how are they going to find her? Can they find 419 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: her in time? But as it turns out, it would 420 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: be months before they ever laid eyes on Madeline again. 421 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: You know, Dave, my wife when we used to live 422 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 1: up in the North Georgia Mountains. That's where I had 423 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: my first academic appointment. Lived up there for about a decade, 424 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: and I had an old truck, and when we first 425 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: moved up there, I was keen to try to figure 426 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: out where roads go and it and unerve her, particularly 427 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: up in the mountains, because you don't know where they're 428 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: going to go. But I like taking just old dirt roads. 429 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 1: And you're really in a very difficult position when you 430 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 1: get down some of these roads and the road might 431 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: be washed out, or you have to go through a 432 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 1: stream in order to cross to the other side, and 433 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: then when you get to the other side, you don't 434 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,479 Speaker 1: you don't know where you're going to wind up. And 435 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:33,479 Speaker 1: of course cell service never works up there. But when 436 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: you see a gravel road, many times, for me at least, 437 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: it peaks my curiosity. I want to know what's down 438 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 1: that road, Dave. They've been looking for Madeline now for 439 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: months and months and she is not turned up. It 440 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: was not until June the seventh, And we have to 441 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: back up and remember she went missing on March thirty first, 442 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: the last of March. She goes missing, and she is 443 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: now found. She's finally found on June seventh, twenty twenty three, 444 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: and of course, by this time, I think that most 445 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: people had come to the conclusion that this was not 446 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: going to end well, and I think their worst fears 447 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: were realized. 448 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 2: There was a deputy walking along Highway forty three. He 449 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 2: starts looking in this area. They know Adam's family has 450 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 2: connections to the exact place where this deputy is looking, 451 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 2: and that's how he comes across what he believes to 452 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 2: be the body of Madeline Kingsbury. We're talking two months 453 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 2: after she goes missing. 454 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and change actually a little bit longer. 455 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 2: And by the way, it's not her body laying in 456 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 2: a ditch. Okay, it's not her bare body. We actually 457 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 2: have her body in a going back to the cocoon, 458 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 2: being wrapped up. 459 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, and not just wrapped up, but sequestered in a culvert, 460 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: you know. And I was talking about the gravel road 461 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: just a moment ago that, you know, I so love 462 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: driving down and trying to figure out where they go. 463 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: That's where she was found. So when you find a 464 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: body that is obscured inside of like, say, for instance, 465 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: a culvert, and for those of you that don't know 466 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: what a culvert is a big concrete tube that literally 467 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: goes like if you turn off of a road, perhaps 468 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: you're going over a ditch. The culvert, most of the 469 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 1: time will run beneath that intersection where you're driving onto 470 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: the addition into the attached road, and it allows for 471 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 1: the flow of water. Well. Her body is taped inside 472 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 1: of a gray fitted sheet, Dave, and it's taped with 473 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: gorilla tape which comes which turns out to be very 474 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: important in this case, very vary. And the sheet, yeah, 475 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: and the fitt of sheet, and she's hidden. She's hidden. 476 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,719 Speaker 1: This is I'm not going to say that it is 477 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,479 Speaker 1: the same as burial, but it's pretty dog one close, 478 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 1: because what you're trying to do is to obscure the body, 479 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: to keep it out of view. I think one of 480 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: my questions would be, why would you go to this 481 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: degree to hide a body but yet not really truly 482 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 1: finish the job, Because if you have access to this 483 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: much property, Okay, there's any number of locations you could 484 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: have probably have gone in order to bury the body. However, 485 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 1: what are we dealing here with, Dave. We're dealing with time. Remember, 486 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: he has to get back in time to get the kids. 487 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: From daycare. Now did he leave again in this period 488 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 1: of time after his mom and dad had the kids, 489 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: and then she's dead in the house. He wraps her up, 490 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: prepares the body, scratching his head, wondering where in the 491 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 1: world could the body? Where could I deposit the body 492 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: where no one is going to find it? Well, he's 493 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: you know, Frabl's got knowledge of this area. He's been 494 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:16,719 Speaker 1: there before. Trust me, his dad manages the property. It's 495 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: not like he's a stranger to it, right, And he's saying, wow, 496 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 1: you know, how can I make this quick and dirty 497 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: and so? And it look I gotta say it worked 498 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: for a while. It worked for a few weeks. But 499 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 1: in the end, this deputy that was doing a very 500 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: thorough search out there, it seeing and I can imagine 501 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: I've been in these circumstances. Before he pulls out his flashlight, 502 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: probably he sees a culvert that's not very well illuminated. 503 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: Even in the middle of the day. You have to 504 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: strain hard to see what's in there. Can you imagine 505 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: his shock and surprise when he shines that light and 506 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: he sees this formation in the dark. You know that 507 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: suddenly illuminated and you have this there's this reckoning that 508 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,959 Speaker 1: comes about in your mind and you realize, oh my gosh, 509 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: that looks like a shrouded body that's in there. And 510 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: then you've got this body in this protected space. I 511 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 1: don't and the body would be at this period of time. Again, 512 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: we have to think about time and temperature. Okay, the 513 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: amount of time she's been out there. We know that 514 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 1: Minnesota is a very cold place, even in the springtime. 515 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: But we're heading into summer now, Dave. And this is 516 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 1: not like the last time she was seen it was 517 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 1: in the heart of winter, you know, probably it generally 518 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: we move from what from winter to spring generally around 519 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: the twentieth or the twenty first, twenty second of March correct, 520 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 1: and then go into April, the end of March into April, 521 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 1: and we're now into spring. So now you're heading into summer. 522 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: Now we're just a few days away. You know, it 523 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: would be summer probably in another thirteen days, So I 524 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: don't know how much you're going to be able to 525 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: find on the body. However, However, what's very important here 526 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: again back to this idea of cocooning. The body's contained 527 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 1: in this fitted sheet with the you know, the elastic edges, 528 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,839 Speaker 1: and so you're providing a space in there where you're 529 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 1: going to contain any elements that are in there that 530 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:23,320 Speaker 1: might hold answers for you. 531 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 2: Dave fascinating. I mentioned the fitted sheet came into play here. Well, 532 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 2: when officers had been inside the home looking for Madeline Kingsbury, 533 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 2: they actually saw furniture and they saw other sheets that 534 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 2: matched that fitted sheet. They saw a mattress that was 535 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 2: missing a fitted sheet. And think about this, you know 536 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 2: we all have well no, we all most of us 537 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 2: have a set of sheets. You know, you got your 538 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,399 Speaker 2: fitted sheet, you've got your pillowcases, and you've got your 539 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 2: other sheet that goes on before you put whatever. And 540 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 2: that's what they saw inside. They had firsthand eyesight knowledge. 541 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 2: We have this particular sheet color, all of that, but 542 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 2: we're missing the fitted sheet from this mattress that we 543 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 2: see over here. Now they find and by the way, 544 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 2: also there's a roll of gorilla tape next to the 545 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,359 Speaker 2: same area where the fitted sheet and mattress would have been. 546 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 2: And what do we find on the fitted sheet that 547 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:30,760 Speaker 2: is actually wrapped around Madeline Kingsbury's body, but gorilla tape, 548 00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 2: and the gorilla tape matches the grilla tape role they 549 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 2: find next to the other sheets that remained in the house. 550 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,719 Speaker 2: Granted a lot of us have gorilla tape, but when 551 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 2: you start stacking up the odds here, we know that 552 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 2: or believe that Madeline Kingsbury went into that home and 553 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:49,839 Speaker 2: never left on her own, that she was killed there, 554 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 2: wrapped up in their own fittage sheet, and that gorilla 555 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,799 Speaker 2: tape was used to tape it up before she was 556 00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 2: taken out and gotten rid of. 557 00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:01,319 Speaker 1: Yeah. And you know, with tape, for instance, even if 558 00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: you have it, all depends on how the edges are torn, 559 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 1: because many times with tape, if you have the original role, 560 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 1: remember they found, they found a role in their residence. 561 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 1: It is possible actually to marry up those edges that 562 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 1: goes to our friends and tool mark and trace evidence. Yeah, 563 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:28,839 Speaker 1: where you can see if it's torn, and if it's cut, 564 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:33,879 Speaker 1: you can actually appreciate to a certain degree microscopically how 565 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 1: was it cut. And you know, many people, if you 566 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 1: don't have a box cutter for instance, or even a knife, 567 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: they'll I don't know, I'm guilty of it. I use 568 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: my teeth, you know, to tear the edge of it 569 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: and then just kind of rip it, and when you 570 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: rip it depend upon how you catch it. You can 571 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: leave kind of a jagged edge there well. And even 572 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: if it's a clean tear, many times it might appear 573 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 1: it might appear clean to the unaided eye, but when 574 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 1: you examine it microscopically, you can actually marry this up 575 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 1: like a puzzle piece. So it's painstaking. And also you 576 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 1: have to if the other role of tape, if the 577 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 1: original role of tape is in the house, it's been protected, right, 578 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: well we have to think about the tape that's on 579 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: the body that hasn't been protected. Has it been compromised 580 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 1: to the point where that analysis did not take place. 581 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:36,800 Speaker 1: But either way, Dave, I got to introduce our friends 582 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 1: to somebody here because arguably, out of all the people 583 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,240 Speaker 1: in the United States, out of all of the forensic 584 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: pathologists in the United States that could have had anything 585 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 1: to have done with the examination of Madeline's remains, I 586 00:37:54,440 --> 00:38:01,760 Speaker 1: would say that this forensic pathologist is he's a legend. 587 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 1: I mean in our world. Ross Zumwald is he has 588 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 1: trained more forensic pathologists than I can count over the years. 589 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 1: He had been previously the chief medical Examiner for the 590 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: state of New Mexico and you might say New Mexico. Yeah, 591 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: well that a very robust forensic fellowship pathology program, forensic 592 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 1: pathology program there, and a lot of big names have 593 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 1: come out of that program. And then on top of that, 594 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:40,440 Speaker 1: doctor Zumwalt has now become the chief medical examiner or 595 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,280 Speaker 1: one of the medical examiners down in this southeastern region 596 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: of Minnesota, and it happened to be in his jurisdiction. 597 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: So the assessment that would have been conducted on Madeline's remains, 598 00:38:55,280 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: and remember they received this cocooned body at the Emmy's office, 599 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: Doctor Zumwalt would have done the most thorough job possibly 600 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: in assessing and not just assessing the remains contained within 601 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:16,479 Speaker 1: the shroud, but also the shroud itself or this I'm 602 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 1: calling her shroud, but the fitted cheat. Knowing him, he 603 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,960 Speaker 1: would now I've met doctor Zumwalt on at least two occasions. 604 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: Incredibly nice man. And just have you ever been around 605 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: someone where you're listening to them and you just know 606 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 1: they're brilliant, And that's the kind of person he is, 607 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 1: you know, he just kind of exues this. I've heard 608 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 1: him give speeches and that sort of thing, and you 609 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 1: can see that evidenced in the students he's produced over 610 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 1: the years. So they're very fortunate to have him on 611 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:55,439 Speaker 1: this case. But unfortunately, because of the time that has 612 00:39:55,680 --> 00:40:01,319 Speaker 1: elapsed here, Madeline's body has been calm promise or decomposition. 613 00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: So it's to say that it is difficult to make 614 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 1: an assessment as to cause of death here is kind 615 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 1: of an understatement because there's no glaring. There's no glaring 616 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,799 Speaker 1: trauma that's visible. And in the morgue, you know, we 617 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 1: kind of sit around and you're relying upon many times 618 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 1: circumstantial evidence to kind of drive to drive your thought 619 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 1: process as to a determination of cause. And in Madeline's case, 620 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 1: they concluded that her cause of death was simply homicidal 621 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:46,799 Speaker 1: violence and her death was ruled as a homicide. I 622 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:51,960 Speaker 1: think probably logically, the way you arrive at that set 623 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 1: of circumstances, why else or how else could someone come 624 00:40:56,239 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 1: to be shrouded, taped, sequestered in a culvert in an 625 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 1: isolated area without this being homicide. She certainly didn't do 626 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 1: this to herself. And just like magic eight Ball says, 627 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 1: all signs point to him, and so I'm you know, 628 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 1: I'm thinking that that's the conclusion that he arrived at. 629 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 1: Now I've heard, I've heard interestingly enough that her cause 630 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 1: of death might actually rest in the idea that this 631 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 1: is some kind of asphyxial death, perhaps maybe a suffocation, 632 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 1: perhaps smothering. Perhaps Is this plausible? Is it possible? Well, 633 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,280 Speaker 1: this goes back to an earlier narrative. Do you remember 634 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 1: what I said about them traveling to drop the kids 635 00:41:53,719 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 1: off together? What if? What if there was some kind 636 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 1: of offer made to try to reconcile and it was rejected. 637 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,360 Speaker 1: What if they had been laying in bed next together, 638 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 1: next to each other, and suddenly he was rejected by 639 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 1: this offer. I have no way of proving this. We 640 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: don't know precisely what went on. Rage ensued, and he 641 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:30,359 Speaker 1: decides at that last moment to end this precious life 642 00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:35,359 Speaker 1: and to leave two children without a mother, to leave 643 00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 1: a life unfinished. Here's another bit of tragedy too. Along 644 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 1: with this, With everything that Madeline was involved with in 645 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: her life, in her proposed studies and research, there's no telling, 646 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,800 Speaker 1: Dave what she would have been covered as an epidemiologist. 647 00:42:56,840 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 1: Perhaps in the future that could have led to discovery 648 00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 1: of maybe a cure for something out there patterns that 649 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: you look for in public health. We'll never know the 650 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 1: answer to that, but what we do know is that 651 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:21,399 Speaker 1: Adam Fravell has now been convicted of second degree homicide 652 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:26,760 Speaker 1: in the case of Madeline, and he will be cooling 653 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 1: his heels in the Minnesota State Penitentiary. I'm Joseph Scott 654 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,320 Speaker 1: Morgan and this is body Bats
