Online rumours lead to speculation and misinformation
Sunday 16 April 2023 23:00 , Ariana Baio
Throughout the Madeline Kingsbury investigation, online rumours have led to misinformation.
The Kingsbury family and police requested the public refrain from spreading gossip about Ms Kingsbury and the investigation via social media.
On the Finding Madeline Kingsbury Facebook page, the Kingsbury family asked people to display “appropriate and empathetic behavior both on and offline” by not spreading unconfirmed information about the investigation.
“If you are participating in a search party PLEASE keep any and all findings within your group and Law Enforcement,” a post in the group read.
One online rumour led some to believe the Winona Police Department was going to host a press conference on 11 April which led law enforcement to clear things up in a post.
Internet sleuths have jumped to conclusions when assuming how Ms Kingsbury went missing and who may, or may not have, been involved in her disappearance.
The speculation led the father of Ms Kingsbury’s children, Adam Fravel, to release a statement stating he “did not have anything to do” with Ms Kingsbury’s disappearance.
