Trial for a man accused of killing his girlfriend’s teenage daughter in Osceola County has been delayed.
Investigators said Stephan Sterns killed 13-year-old Madeline Soto back in February.
Sterns was supposed to go on trial for her murder next week.
But on Wednesday, a judge set a status hearing for Oct. 14.
At that time, attorneys will submit a proposed trial schedule for the judge to approve or deny.
