WILMINGTON, Del. — In a shocking turn of events, William Stevenson, 77, has been charged with the murder of his 64-year-old wife, Linda, at their Delaware home late last December. Stevenson, who was previously married to current First Lady Jill Biden from 1970 to 1975, was arrested earlier this week and is currently being held on a $500,000 bail that he was unable to post.
Police responded to a report of a domestic dispute, discovering Linda unresponsive in the living room. Efforts to revive her were unsuccessful. Stevenson’s arrest followed a thorough investigation by the Delaware Department of Justice, leading to a grand jury indictment.
Described as a family-oriented person and a Philadelphia Eagles fan, Linda's obituary did not mention her husband. The tragic situation has led to renewed media interest in Stevenson’s past, including his controversial remarks about Jill Biden in a recent interview. Jill herself has refrained from commenting on the case, as Stevenson navigates his legal troubles in custody.
