History
As part of Erik Killmonger's plan to steal Vibranium from a museum in Great Britain, Linda disguised herself as a barista to enter the museum and kill the curator who was questioning Erik, allowing the latter (alongside Ulysses Klaue and Linbani) to kill everyone and steal the vibranium. She then steals an ambulance to drive herself and her cohorts away from the scene, though Klaue gets captured by an arriving Black Panther in the process.

Erik then initiated a successful plan to free Klaue from custody by having both Linbani and Linda to hack the cameras of the building that Klaue was being held in and placed explosive charges outside the wall of the interrogation room. Limbani then flee to an old junkyard along with his cohorts, where a plane is waiting for them. As Limbani is loading the plane with the stolen Vibranium, Erik demanded to be dropped off in Wakanda, but Klaue refuses to oblige, prompting an angry Erik to pull out a gun and shoot Limbani to his death. Klaue tried to stop this by holding Linda hostage, much to Linda's distraught. Though Erik assured to Linda that everything will be okay, Erik suddenly betrays Linda by shooting her to her death, allowing him to shoot down Klaue to his death and take his body to gain access to Wakanda.
