Fravel faces charges of murder in the first degree in the death of Madeline Kingsbury.
Kingsbury's disappearance in March of 2023 spurred a months-long effort to locate the Winona mother, involving thousands of volunteers. Kingsbury's body was discovered in June and Fravel was arrested the same day.
Fravel was indicted by a grand jury in October. He's currently held on a $3 million bond.
The attorney for Adam Fravel, accused of Madeline Kingsbury's death, requests a change of trial venue due to alleged media coverage bias in Winona County. Fravel's attorney cites "prejudicial material" and community investments in the case as reasons for an unfair trial.
The man accused of killing 26-year-old Madeline Kingsbury appeared in court Thursday. 29-year-old Adam Fravel appeared in Winona County Court Thursday morning for an omnibus hearing-- a hearing used to tell the judge if any parties in the case have issues remaining the need to be addressed. None were raised during Thursday's hearing. Fravel is Kingsbury's former partner and biological father of her children. He was arrested the same day her remains were discovered, two months after she went missing. A trial is expected to begin in October of 2024. Fravel faces life in prison if convicted.
