Child sex slave serving life sentence for killing man who used her
A child sex slave in Nashville is behind bars for killing the man who used her.
Cyntoia Brown was physically, sexually and verbally abused.
In 2004, Brown killed Nashville realtor Johnny Allen, one of the many men who paid to have sex with the then 16-year-old.
As a child sex slave, she’d been repeatedly raped, abused and held at gunpoint prior to being exploited by Allen.
She admitted she feared his military background paired with the numerous guns she said she observed in his home. She shot and killed the 43-year-old.
“He was a sharpshooter in the Army,” Brown said of Allen. “I’m sitting here thinking if he does something, what am I going to do?”
Brown, whose grandmother and mother are also survivors of rape, was sentenced to life in prison with parole eligibility after 51 years.
