About this episode
The episode covers the mysterious disappearance of 13-year-old Madeline Soto on her way to school in Kissimmee, Florida.
13-year-old Madeline Soto vanishes on what should have been an ordinary school morning in Kissimmee, Florida. She’s dropped off just a block away, and nothing about it feels unusual. She walks off, heading toward school… and disappears. By the afternoon, panic sets in. Calls to 911 reveal a family scrambling for answers: rechecking routes, calling friends, waiting for help that isn’t coming fast enough. She never made it to class. No one saw her arrive. Beneath the family’s lies, it’s a race against the clock to find Maddie. Get instant access to all episodes, including premium unreleased episodes, commercial-free at swordandscale.com
