Pedophile Case In Delaware: Why Beau Biden's Not Running?

When Delaware Attorney General--and son of the Vice President--Beau Biden announced that he would not seek the "Biden" seat in the US Senate, there was a lot of speculation--much of it here in this blog--as to why he was not running. My gut feeling was that he suffered from "Sanford-Woods Syndrome" and didn't want to expose his family to it. I had ZERO evidence to support the charge, so I said nothing (though in our present day world, it clearly would have shocked no one). Biden cited wishing to continue his AG work in protecting children from sexual predators as his reason for not running.

Boy, was he right. Katie Couric and Jan Crawford of CBS News have been covering the story of a pedophile in Lewes, Delaware who used the cover of his childhood pediatrics practice to indulge his horrific crimes, likely over the course of nearly 20 years. Complaints to State Authorities during that time by concerned parents resulted in little action including one from THE DOCTOR'S SISTER. Even after he came under intense scrutiny from state law enforcement, he continued his depredations, including reports of one assault the day before his arrest.

Beau Biden made protecting children his signature issue in campaigning for Attorney General, and he cited the work as part of the reason he wasn't going to run for the Senate. I'll go him one step further. Biden knew that once this story got big, that once it broke on the national scene (which last week's 471 count indictment has done), the glare of media attention would eventually turn itself on him, his office, and Delaware Law Enforcement--handing an opponent a superb campaign issue highlighting Biden's incompetence as AG. I've yet to see such a report in the BAPF (Bought and Paid For) media, but I will give it some time.
