It was the 19th of March, 1985, when police in Garden Grove, California, received a call from David Brown. He exclaimed that he had found his wife, Linda Brown, suffering from gunshot wounds in her bed. He claimed that he had left the family’s home earlier in the evening after becoming exacerbated by his wife bickering with his 14-year-old daughter, Cinnamon Brown. Cinnamon was David’s daughter from an earlier relationship.
Linda had been shot twice in the abdomen at close range. She was rushed to Fountain Valley Community Hospital where she was pronounced dead shortly thereafter. A couple of hours after the shooting, police would find Cinnamon. She was shaking behind a doghouse in the back yard, surrounded by her own vomit. She had taken an overdose of prescription medication and a note would be found in her hand which read: “Dear God, please forgive me. I didn’t mean to hurt her.”
By first appearances, it looked as though Cinnamon had killed Linda after an argument. However, investigators would soon come to realize that this case was far more complex than they ever could have imagined...
