Judge grants restriction order in Madeline Kingsbury murder case
Prosecutors in the case filed for the restrictive order anticipating that they would enter exhibits and a complete transcript of grand jury proceedings
WINONA, Minn. — A Winona County Judge has issued an order restricting access to audio and video statements previously made by Adam Fravel to law enforcement as the trial in the murder of Madeline Kingsbury moves forward.
Prosecutors in the case filed for the restrictive order anticipating that they would enter exhibits and a complete transcript of grand jury proceedings.
According to the motion made by Fravel’s attorney, the restrictive order is to prevent access to audio and video statements by Fravel to law enforcement on 3/31/23, 4/1/23, and 4/2/23 because they “contain a substantial amount of material facts and information that has not previously been made public.”
Fravel’s attorney also appears to be seeking a change of venue, alleging that Fravel would not receive a fair trial in Winona County because of “extensive media coverage.”
Another contested omnibus hearing for Adam Fravel has been scheduled for April 30th, 2024.
Fravel is charged with first-degree murder in the death of his former partner Maddi Kingsbury, who was also the mother of the couple’s two children. Kingsbury disappeared on March 31, 2023, and her body was discovered weeks later in a remote wooded area just north of Mabel, Fravel’s hometown. He was quickly arrested and charged with second-degree murder, but that was elevated to first-degree murder after Fravel was indicted by a Winona County grand jury.
