Jill Biden's Ex-Husband Is Accused of Killing His Current Wife [View all]

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.
