Doyle claims she shot her husband dead after being stabbed multiple times in her vagina and abdomen as she slept. She said the shooting was an act of self-defense. But prosecutors insist she actually stabbed herself in an elaborate set-up designed to give her an excuse to kill James.

Attorney General Steve Marshall announced Thursday that the Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the conviction of Linda Doyle, 69, of Foley, Alabama, for murder. Doyle was convicted in the Baldwin County Circuit Court on February 17, 2022.

The evidence at trial showed that on the night of July 30, 2019, Doyle called 911 claiming that she had been stabbed by her husband. Police responded to the Doyle residence and found Doyle’s husband, James Doyle, lying dead on the living room floor. Doyle told police that after she and her husband got into an argument, he came at her with a butcher knife. Police, however, were suspicious of Doyle’s story and even a private investigator hired by Linda Doyle could find nothing to substantiate Linda Doyle’s allegations. Investigators also discovered that Linda Doyle had sought both a hitman and an untraceable firearm and told someone she was going to kill her husband.

Baldwin County District Attorney Robert Wilters’ office successfully prosecuted this case and obtained the guilty verdict. Doyle was sentenced to ninety-nine years’ imprisonment. Doyle sought to have her conviction reversed on appeal.
