EP64: True Crime - The Linda Brown Story

Beyond the Norm

“If you really loved me, you would do this.” These bone-chilling words were said by David Brown to his daughter Cinnamon as he tried to convince her to shoot his wife. David was a master manipulator with a long history of grooming and abusing young girls. In this episode of Christi’s Couch, host Christi Lukasiak takes listeners on a true crime journey through the grizzly and complicated murder of Linda Brown.

If you don’t remember the case of Linda Brown, the infamous name of Cinnamon Brown might ring a bell. At the time of Linda’s murder, Cinnamon was only 14 years old living part-time with her father David, his new wife Linda, and Linda’s 17-year-old little sister Patty. The original story presented to the police about a child murderer was horrific enough, however, police knew there was more to it. While Cinnamon was initially the only person charged for the crime, it was later revealed that there were two people involved.

Tune into this week's episode of Christi’s Couch for a dive into a truly fascinating and disturbing true-crime story that will leave you on your seat.

Quotes

• “I respect your opinion, please respect mine. That’s the thing here is everybody’s opinion is safe. We all are entitled to it. We’re all from different backgrounds and different walks of life and we are clearly going to have different opinions on things. That’s the beauty of the world, especially the United States.” (6:49-7:11)

• “If you really loved me you would do this.” (57:57-58:01)

“• She said, ‘I’m ashamed that I loved my father enough to shoot Linda and I didn’t want to admit it or to accept it.’ David had also told Linda after she took the pills, that he thought it was a good idea if she shot herself in the head, just to make the police think she really did try to kill herself. When she’s telling this story to the police, it does not dawn on her that David really wanted her to die. It actually doesn’t dawn on her until she’s testifying in court. When Linda has that moment of realization that she was expendable to her father, you could see her whole spirit drain out of her.” (1:06:04-1:06:58)
