WINONA, Minn. (KFGO) – A judge in southeast Minnesota has granted a request from the defense to move the murder trial of Adam Fravel out of Winona County.
Fravel is facing first- and second-degree murder charges in connection with the March 2023 disappearance and killing of Madeline Kingsbury.
Fravel’s lawyers argued that he could not get a fair trial in Winona County due to extensive media coverage of the case and the judge agreed Wednesday that a change of venue is warranted.
Fravel is Kingsbury’s ex-boyfriend and the father of her two children.
