(March 24, 2009) Driver In Biden Crash Wanted Name Cleared
CBS NEWS ^ | 3-24-99 | Bob Orr

Never forget what a slime Biden is. The article proves it.

Just a week before Christmas, 1972, the wife of newly-elected Sen. Joe Biden and the couple's baby daughter were killed - and their two sons badly injured - when the Biden family car was broadsided by a truck at an intersection in Delaware.

The truck driver, Curtis Dunn, was never charged in the crash. But, his daughter Pam Hamill says, he too, suffered, reports CBS News correspondent Bob Orr.

"He grieved over that," Hamill said. "He was haunted and was tormented by that for years."

Dunn died in 1999, but since then his family has endured widespread rumors and reports that he had been drinking just before the collision.

At least twice, Biden himself has made public references to alcohol being involved in the crash. In 2007 Biden said the truck driver "allegedly ... drank his lunch." And multiple news outlets, including CBS News, have reported that Dunn was drunk.

This story made me hate Biden more than anything else he has ever said or done.

I know the intersection where this happened.
Mrs. Biden pulled out from a stop sign in front of the truck.
There is not good sight distance for anyone from any direction.

Too bad scumbag Biden can’t be held accountable for his slander or libel or whichever it was in a court of law.

I am from Newark and was living there at the time this happened.
I read the reports and I know people that was involved in assisting the accident.
It was clear from all reports that she (Nelia Biden) pulled out in front of Mr. Dunn's truck.
I don't know how any of us could have avoided being hit if we pulled out on Limestone Road at that intersection. I have driven that road many times and the downgrade gets your attention.
I heard Biden make the comment more than one time, he spoke as though Mr. Dunn was at fault.
He should be pulled before a judge with remarks he made.
Mr. Dunn's family has suffered enough,
VP Biden also suffered, he lost his wife and baby daughter and spent 7 months in the hospital with his boys, he should address the people of Delaware and confess that he made a mistake blaming the truck driver that did nothing wrong.

"The police reports have been lost..."

How convenient was that for the newly elected Senator?

How would this change if a rumor was out there that the truck driver had been smoking marijuana?

Joe Biden is not a nice man. He is a jerk. The MSM and Washington Politicians who say “Uncle Joe” is a nice guy are wrong. He is a a$$hole.

Then there’s the video of a little girl pushing away Uncle Joe’s arm as he groped her chest. Must have wanted a little cheese with his pizza.

Hastert was eventually outed. Maybe history will repeat itself.

He probably was, cleared, and witnesses of the accident said he wasn’t at fault.

But Biden goes and spouts his mouth of that the guy was drunk.

Unless he repents, he’ll be held accountable in a much higher court.

<Mrs. Biden pulled out from a stop sign in front of the truck.

Just wondering.... was a blood analysis done on her for alcohol? I'm guessing not although today that would probably be routine.....

...

The article says Biden accepted that the driver wasn’t drunk when the article was written in 1999.

According to the following article by someone on the scene, Biden was told over and over again that the truck driver was drunk. But there was no proof. There was no breathalyzer or blood test done.

Sound like the account of a Biden Family Liberal toady. Scurrilous! No proof is NO PROOF!
