Prosecutors in the Madeline Soto murder and sex abuse case have announced that they will seek the death penalty against defendant Stephan Sterns, who was the live-in boyfriend of Madeline's mother. Prosecutor Dave Aronberg, AKA the Florida Law Man, discusses Florida's new law that now makes it more likely that Sterns will receive the ultimate punishment in this case. He also explains how Florida law establishes statutory aggravators to be proven in capital cases, and how the defense can introduce an unlimited amount of mitigators. This case is a tragedy that rocked central Florida, and we break it down here on True Crime MTN.
