Written by Published

Jill Bidens former husband, William Bill Stevenson, has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of his wife, Linda Stevenson, following a weeks-long investigation into a domestic incident at their Delaware home.

As reported by the Gateway Pundit, police first descended on the New Castle residence on December 28, 2025, after a domestic dispute call led officers to the 1300 block of Idlewood Road, where 64-year-old Linda Stevenson was discovered unresponsive. According to TMZ, Linda Stevenson was found dead in the living room, and 911 dispatch audio obtained by the outlet referenced cardiac arrest at the scene.

Authorities removed multiple items from the Stevenson home during the initial response, treating the residence as an active crime scene while the investigation unfolded. Fox 29 reported: A Delaware man who was previously married to former First Lady Jill Biden has been arrested and charged with murder after his wife was found dead in their home late last year.

What we know: William Stevenson, 77, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of his 64-year-old wife Linda Stevenson after a weeks-long investigation, Fox 29 further noted, underscoring the seriousness of the charges now facing the man once married to the current First Lady. Linda was found unresponsive on the living room floor after officers responded to a home on the 1300 block of Idlewood Road for a domestic dispute call on December 28, 2025. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
