WINONA, Minn. – Unsealed search warrants in the murder of Madeline Kingsbury reveal possible financial motives.
Kingsbury, of Winona, was reported missing on March 31st and her body was found north of Mabel on June 7th. Her ex-boyfriend and father of her two children, Adam Fravel, is charged with her murder.
The unsealed documents reveal since September 2021, all rent payments for Kingsbury and Fravel’s shared Winona townhome were paid solely by Kingsbury, and they were often making late payments, leading to a nonrenewal of their lease in September 2022.
Investigators say Fravel was financially dependent on Kingsbury, and without a steady relationship, he would lose that support. Kingsbury also had a $170,000 life insurance policy.
