*** Content warnings: Child sexual abuse, grooming, domestic violence ***
In the early morning hours of Tuesday, March 19 1985, police were summoned to a shocking scene at an ordinary suburban home in Garden Grove, California. 23-year-old wife and mother Linda Brown had been shot twice and killed. The culprit was her 14-year-old stepdaughter, Cinnamon Brown, who was found barely conscious and clutching a suicide note in a dog kennel in the backyard. Cinnamon openly admitted to shooting Linda, and the case appeared to be open-and-shut… But nothing was quite as it seemed in this picture-perfect family.
