ST: CINNAMON SUGAR
Story Time Slayer Podcast presents the murder of Linda Bailey Brown at the hands of her own family March 19, 1985. Linda was a beautiful young woman, only 23 when her step-daughter Cinnamon shot her in cold blood & then attempted suicide. Although it seemed like an open and shut case there was something extremely suspicious about the circumstances. Although Cinnamon had a handwritten confession saying she didn't mean to hurt Linda, had to be treated for a drug over dose and verbally confessed to shooting and killing Linda...the whole thing just felt odd. Cinnamon had confessed to doing the crime while under the influence of drugs. However, after recovering from the drug overdose Cinnamon maintained for 3 years she had absolutely no memory of the night Linda died. People who knew Cinnamon were totally shocked she could have done something like this. Cinnamon was only 14 at the time of the crime. She was tried as a juvenile and received a sentence of 27 years to life. What people had no way of knowing is that Cinnamon had not acted alone nor killed her step-mother out of jealousy. Cinnamon wasn't even jealous of Linda. Cinnamon also didn't have amnesia-her dad was telling her to say she couldn't remember anything and he would work with attorneys to get her out of jail sooner. On top of this seeming completely out of character for Cinnamon...it does not go unnoticed that Patti is constantly with David and had seemingly taken Linda's spot. Patti even wears Linda's clothing & jewelry. When Cinnamon finds out that her dad is not trying to get her out of prison and is instead living a lavish life of luxury and had a baby with Linda's sister Patti(only 16 when Linda was shot), Cinnamon tells the truth. She had been duped by her father so he could collect almost a million dollars in life insurance & have a relationship with Linda's teenage sister Patti. Tune in to hear the life and crimes of David Brown and how he ultimately manipulated his teenage daughter and teenage lover/sister-in-law into murdering his wife Linda in cold blood.
