In the podcast 'Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski,' retired FBI Special Agent and Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, Robin Dreeke, discussed the disturbing case of Maddie Soto, a 13-year-old girl allegedly murdered by Stephan Stearns, her mother's boyfriend. They reviewed body cam footage from the initial police response, highlighting the unusual calmness and scripted narrative of Maddie's mother, Jennifer.
