'She Had It Coming' Says Murder Suspect

CHILLING CONFESSION IN LINDA STEIN MURDER
By LAURA ITALIANO
Realtor to the stars Linda Stein had it coming, suspect Natavia Lowery told prosecutors in a chilling taped murder confession revealed for the first time today.
"She has never, never, never treated me like this!" the pretty personal assistant fumed to prosecutors in the tape.
"Never!" she shouts, describing how the high-powered Realtor was cursing up a storm in her Fifth Avenue apartment while handling a $30 million sale on an October morning in 2007 - all the while puffing pot like a locomotive and waving around a wooden yoga stick. "So I snatched it from her," Lowery added, almost calmly. "So I took it and I like hit her with it."
"After the first time, she fell?" prosecutor Joan Illuzzi-Orbon then asks from off camera, matching her suspect's calm. "Yes," the now-sniffling Lowery answered. "I wasn't myself."
Stein's daughter, Mandy - who had discovered her mother's corpse - was also sobbing in the Manhattan courtroom where the tape is being played during a pre-trial hearing to determine its admissibility.
"I was mad," Lowery continued. "I was confused. I was angry. I was paranoid," Lowery told the prosecutor. "I was feeling like I never had before. I felt like she was my worst enemy. How do you go from being someone's best friend to, like, enemy? You know?"
