WILMINGTON, Del. (Echosphere News) — In a shocking development, William Stevenson, the first husband of current First Lady Jill Biden, has been charged with the murder of his wife Linda Stevenson on December 28. The authorities in Delaware announced the indictment, which follows an extensive investigation by the Delaware Department of Justice.
Stevenson, 77, whose marriage to Jill Biden lasted from 1970 to 1975, remains in jail after failing to post a $500,000 bail. He is accused of fatally harming Linda, 64, at their home following a domestic dispute that resulted in police intervention.
Officers responded to the home late at night and discovered Linda unresponsive in the living room, where attempts to revive her were unsuccessful. Described in her obituary as a devoted mother, grandmother, and Philadelphia Eagles fan, Linda's death has reverberated through the community. Notably, her obituary made no mention of William Stevenson.
The legal proceedings against him are ongoing, and while it remains unclear if he has secured legal representation, his past as the founder of the popular music venue Stone Balloon in Newark remains a talking point. In a separate interview with a conservative news outlet in 2024, Stevenson had made critical comments about Jill Biden and referred to their divorce as contentious, characterizing her negatively.
Jill Biden, who went on to marry Joe Biden in 1977, refrained from commenting on the case through her office's spokesperson. As this story continues to unfold, the public remains invested in both the legal ramifications and the implications surrounding such a high-profile background.
