The ex-husband of the former first lady Jill Biden was arrested and charged with murder in the death of his current wife, the police in New Castle County, Del., said on Tuesday.
The ex-husband, William Stevenson, 77, was arrested on Monday after a grand jury indictment charged him with first-degree murder in the death of his wife, Linda Stevenson, 64, on Dec. 28. Mr. Stevenson was married to Dr. Biden from 1970 until their divorce in 1975.
Mr. Stevenson is being held in custody after failing to post $500,000 cash bail, the police said. It was unclear whether he had legal representation.

Sobering reminder that domestic violence can happen to ANYBODY regardless of age, social status, education status, economic status, etc.

(1,771 posts)He obviously put the guy up to it, possibly because Jill still loved him. I mean, the state of our media is such that while you guys think I've lost my mind, remember who really has: Trump. Will he burn up Truth Social tonight with some weirder conspiracy theory than I came up with? Of course, his brain could do it. It's done worse.
But, seriously, I'm sorry to hear of another woman's death at the hands of her husband. It's a shame on our society that this continues to happen. I hope Mrs. Biden doesn't have to testify about her previous marriage in court.
