EP173: No Father of the Year

In the early morning hours of March 19, 1985, Linda Bailey Brown lost her life. When police arrived at home, her husband, David Arnold Brown answered the door and told them his wife’s body was in their bedroom and that he thought she had been shot. Also living in the home was Linda’s 17-year-old younger sister, Patti, David’s 14-year-old daughter, Cinnamon, from a previous marriage, and David and Linda’s baby daughter, Crystal. However, when the police tried to find Cinnamon they didn’t find her until they looked outside in one of the dog houses in the backyard. Cinnamon was lying in a pool of her own vomit and was clutching a note that said “Dear God, please forgive me. I didn’t mean to hurt her.” However, as with most of our stories, things are not always as they seem. Listen to this week’s episode to hear more about the Brown family and what actually happened to Linda Bailey Brown.
