This is a follow up to the articles 16-Year-Old Girl Sentenced To Life In Prison For Killing An Armed Man Who Hired Her For Sex and 16-Year-Old Sex Slave And Prostitute Cyntoia Brown Who Killed Customer Given 51-Years In Prison By Tennessee Courts (Video). Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam has granted clemency to 30-year-old Cyntoia Brown, who killed a man when she was16-years-old, after being sex trafficked by pimp Garion McGlothen. While being pimped by McGlothen, Brown was walking the streets on Tennessee. Brown was picked up by 44-year-old Johnny Allen. He stopped at a fast food drive through to buy two burgers for them, then took her back to his house.

She spent hours watching TV with him. Based on her account, they both went into his bed to sleep. She contends he wanted to have sex, but she turned over indicating she did not want to do so. Brown stated he kept pacing back and forth between the bed and the bathroom. She states shortly after he got back into the bed and reached over towards his nightstand. Brown stated she was of the belief he would retrieve a weapon and shoot her. This prompted her to reach for the handgun in her purse and shoot him.

Investigators contend Brown’s motive for murder was robbery, as Allen had $50,000 in his house that she stole, along with a few of his rifles. Brown was apprehended because she stole Allen’s truck, which led police right to her, while staying at a hotel with pimp McGlothen. Police revealed Allen sustained a fatal gunshot wound to the back of his head. Authorities state he was laying facedown on the bed with his hands folded under his head, as though he was shot and killed while he was asleep.

Brown’s crime was indeed horrific. However, the courts handing down a 51-year prison sentence is not in line with the national average for a minor. As such, Governor Haslam has granted Brown clemency. Brown will be on supervised parole for 10-years. Governor Haslam stated, “Cyntoia Brown committed, by her own admission, a horrific crime at the age of 16. Yet, imposing a life sentence on a juvenile that would require her to serve at least 51-years before even being eligible for parole consideration is too harsh, especially in light of the extraordinary steps Ms. Brown has taken to rebuild her life.”

Brown needs to get on the straight and narrow path in life. She needs to stay on the right side of the law. She need not even jaywalk. She needs to show the world she is reformed and worthy of the second chance she has been given, in what is a tragic situation. She needs to attend extensive, weekly therapy and abide by all the terms of her parole.
