The Minnesota Supreme Court has affirmed the conviction of Adam Fravel. In November 2024, a jury in Blue Earth County found Fravel guilty of murdering Madeline Kingsbury, a Winona woman who was the mother of Fravel’s children and his former domestic partner. The state supreme court heard Fravel’s appeal back in January, where his attorney Greg Scanlan argued the evidence against Fravel was insufficient for a first-degree murder conviction. He said Kingsbury’s death was negligence, not murder.
