The ex-husband of former first lady Jill Biden was charged in his wife’s murder on Tuesday, more than a month after she was found dead on her living room floor in their Delaware home.
Linda Stevenson, 64, had been found “unresponsive in the living room” in late December by police responding to a domestic dispute call and was pronounced dead, authorities said at the time.
On Monday her husband, 77-year-old William Stevenson, was charged with first-degree murder in her death, though authorities have not yet released information on how she died or revealed a cause, KTVU-TV reported.
Unable to post bail, Stevenson was being held at Howard Young Correctional Institution on $500,000 cash bail, KTVU reported.
Biden was married to Stevenson from 1970 to 1977 before marrying Joe Biden in 1977. The Stevensons were married for about 40 years.
