Newark resident Pamela Hamill wants a public apology from vice presidential candidate U.S. Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del.), who she says has repeatedly besmirched her late father, Curtis C. Dunn.
Dunn was the tractor-trailer driver involved in the December 1972 accident that took the life of the newly-elected U.S. Senator’s first wife, Neilia, and 13-month-old daughter, Naomi.

I met Biden when I was in high school and I got the same sob story that a man who was driving drunk hit his wife and kids and she died because of his actions. My sons father had his current wife in a college classroom and she told the same story about a drunk driver killing his wife. He is such a lier. Thank you for printing the true story. I am sorry it took so long for me to find out the truth.
Don't hold your breath waiting.... Joe Biden is all about Joe Biden! The best thing about the election last week is that DE finally gets rid of "good ole Joe". We can only hope that Markell doesn't appoint one of his sons as a replacement!!!
huh?
Biden supposedly, according to him, has a high IQ, but he seems to be unable to tell the truth, and makes up facts to fit the moment. The Press lets him get away with this, hopefully a lawsuit will get Biden, and his lies the kind of attention that they deserve!
Plagiarist Joe is the perfect Democrat, able to lie at a moment's notice and milk the sympathy vote for all it's worth. It's high time that Curtis Dunn's survivors sued the scumbag for defaming the memory of an innocent man.
