Her family spent Monday retracing the Bridgeport teacher’s last steps and calling area hospitals but have turned up nothing. Now, they are pleading with the public to help them bring her home safely.

“We don’t know where she is. We need to find her because I’m breaking down and I don’t know what to do,” said Antwon Brown, Linda’s husband.

Chicago police said Linda was last seen in the 4500-block of South Martin Luther King Drive, not far from where she lives, on Saturday. But flyers with Linda’s photo are now being circulated online and throughout the Chicago area.

Antwon says he last saw his wife on Friday night. The couple watched a movie at their Bronzeville home and then went to bed.

“Everything was fine. Next morning I woke up, it was like 8:35 a.m., and she was gone. No sign of her. I thought she went to acupuncture because she goes to acupuncture on Saturdays,” Antwon said.

But Antwon says the 53-year-old never showed up to her regularly scheduled appointment. And by Saturday afternoon, no one in Linda’s family could get ahold of her.

“The hours that went past around 1:30, 2 p.m. I’m starting to wonder, like, ‘What’s going on?’ She hasn’t called me, because she normally would call me and tell me where she is going. She never did,” Antwon said.

The special education teacher at Chicago Public Schools’ Robert Healy Elementary School was set to return to work on Monday. Healy’s principal sent out a letter alerting the school’s community with a plea to contact police with any information.

The school offered students mental health support as Linda’s family and friends grapple with their emotions.

“A little frightened and scared. Like, where is she? Like, I don’t know what to do. I did everything. We got police detectives out. Everybody’s looking,” Antwon said. “We love her. We miss her. We want her to come home.”

Linda’s husband says she drives a blue Honda Civic. So far, CPD have not been able to find her vehicle, which they say has an Illinois plate number of CX57470.

CPD asked anyone with information to call Area One SVU detectives at 312-747-8380.
