Linda Lou Charbonneau is Sentenced to death on June 4, 2004

Her appeal includes:
Linda was married to John, and later, to Sproates.   Linda remained romantically involved with both men in varying degrees and had moved between the residences of John and Sproates several times. In the fall of 2001, John and Sproates were reported missing.   Sproates's body was eventually found in John's backyard.   A murder investigation ensued.   Linda became a primary suspect.   The investigation ultimately suggested that Linda, Mellisa, and Mellisa's boyfriend, Brown, participated in John's and Sproates's murders.   All three were eventually indicted and the State began to prepare for trial.

In April of 2003, the State began to discuss a plea bargain with Brown.   On April 10, 2003, the State sent a letter to Brown discussing the terms under which it would allow Brown to plead guilty.   The State offered Brown a plea of guilty to two counts of First Degree Murder.   Brown would be required to provide the State with a truthful written proffer, a truthful formal videotaped statement, and truthful testimony at Linda's and Mellisa's trials.   In return for Brown's cooperation, the State promised to recommend life in prison at his sentencing. Brown accepted the State's offer and sent a written proffer to the State on April 22, 2003 outlining his version of how the murders took place.   Brown's proffer implicated himself, Linda, and Mellisa in the murders.   In his proffer, Brown suggested that the motive to kill John resulted from pornographic pictures of Mellisa's oldest daughter found on John's computer.   Brown further proffered that Mellisa had actively participated in Sproates's murder:  Mellisa stabbed Sproates while Brown beat him with a homemade weapon.   The State and Brown agreed to the deal and Brown pleaded guilty to two counts of Murder in the First Degree on April 24, 2003.   Under the terms of the agreement, sentencing was deferred until his codefendants' cases were resolved
