The Nicotine Murder of Linda Curry and The True Story of Batman and Robyn...

At 11pm, on the night of June 9th, 1994, Paul Curry called 911 and reported his wife Linda was unconscious and not breathing. When the paramedics arrived, they were unable to revive her. Linda Curry's cause of death was massive acute nicotine poisoning, but how did non-smoker Linda come to die in such a way?

Femme Fatale and spoilt brat Robyn 'Colette' Lindholm loved horses and manipulating men. When she found her lovers to no longer be useful, she would organise to have them murdered. Sex, drugs and her own hubris and greed would be her undoing.
