Interview with Dusty Brown's Mark
by Traciy Curry-Reyes
I have had an opportunity to chat a bit with Dusty's latest husband Mark. He gave me a little bit more information about her during his time with her.
Kathy met Mark while they were working together. They were immediately drawn to each other. They fell in love and decided to get married.
Dusty worked as a ticket sales person for a carnival.
As far as the funeral, it was a private service only.
Kathy did have the opportunity to see some of her family members again.
Here is a statement that was sent to me by Mark:
"As far as her children are concerned I have made all attempts to help all of them reunite. I got all of them but christi i didnt make it in time but she does know all that has happened to her mother."
Both Kathy and Mark have had the chance to see the movie
A Matter of Justice also known as
Final Justice. Now according to him, Kathy showed him a copy of a script that she wrote. I told him that I have spoken to the producer and her attorney many times, and to my knowledge she had no hand in writing the script. Though, it is possible that they used some of the information in the movie, but I can't confirm that. I believe the director and producers made an effort to interview her. Most of the information that was used as a basis for the movie was taken from court transcripts and testimony at trial. I would love for him to donate the document that she wrote to the website.
About that charge in Waco, Texas in the late 2000's
According to her husband, Kathy was only guilty of riding in the car with someone who was drinking. There was an empty "can" under her seat. He was able to get her out of the charge.
On her relationship with Mary Brown
From what I gather, Kathy was very distressed by Mary Brown. I have heard this from more than one person. Mary Brown was a tough cookie. I remember speaking with her, and she was relentless. And, she seemed totally consumed with Kathy. I guess Kathy knew this because she had deep unpleasant feelings for Mary Brown for ruining her life. She has insisted that she had NO part in Chris' death and that Rocky acted alone. According to her husband, she constantly battled those feelings, and he was just at the point of getting her to a positive place with that. But, he feels that he was not completely able to make a break through with her.
I am particularly interested in knowing exactly what it is about Kathy that continued to attract these young guys to her. Yes, she was still attractive, but I think there is something more...something deeper that attracts them to her. I am hoping to continue my conversation with him about Kathy. I have so many questions about this case that continues to intrigue me.
Side note: I received a comment from a person who knew Dusty's daughter Christy. She said that Christy was due to leave prison in October of this year, but she has gotten into a lot of trouble in prison and has picked up 9 new felony charges. (I wonder if she is acting out because she is distraught over her mom's death. Will try to confirm the charges soon. For updates on baby Christy please visit her page.

Also, here is a document that I received a few years ago that I have been meaning to post. It's part of Kathy Charlene Jackson aka Kathy Charlene Brown's FBI record.
