Maddie Soto memorial coming down

A memorial for a murdered 13-year-old girl is being disassembled by the victim's family. A temporary memorial for Maddie Soto is coming down because it sits on private property and the owner is asking that it be removed.

ST. CLOUD, Fla. - A memorial for Madeline Soto is being removed in St. Cloud. The 13-year-old girl was killed in February, and her body was found in a field near the memorial site.

Since her body was discovered, people have stopped by to pay their respects and leave mementos. However, the land is private property, and the owners say it’s time to clear the area, according to those who set up the memorial. They are now working to find a permanent location to rebuild it.
