- 0:27Speaker 1: This one is dark, sadly Donkey of to Day from Monday,
- 0:30Speaker 1: June seventeenth goes to a man named Joseph Stewart. He
- 0:33Speaker 1: has a suspect and the killing of Deliah didn't Witty
- 0:38Speaker 1: fifty six years old, sending healing energy to her family.
- 0:41Speaker 1: She was the victim of a hit and run because
- 0:44Speaker 1: Joseph allegedly struck her with a vehicle and kept it moving.
- 0:47Speaker 1: He didn't stop the help, He didn't call nine one one.
- 0:49Speaker 1: In fact, he kept doing his job. What was his job?
- 0:51Speaker 1: Let's go to Fox to Detroit for the report police.
- 0:54Speaker 1: He could at least stop turned the wrong and look,
- 0:58Speaker 1: just kept going.
- 0:58Speaker 3: Delia didn't Whitties widow has not slept much since his
- 1:01Speaker 3: wife was hit and killed run over last week by
- 1:04Speaker 3: a delivery driver a block from where she lives, the
- 1:07Speaker 3: same block they met on forty four years ago. We
- 1:10Speaker 3: believe that he knew that he had hit someone, and
- 1:13Speaker 3: he continued his course of travel to finish his delivery.
- 1:18Speaker 3: Detroit Police Commander Rebecca McKay says this outspect Joseph Stewart
- 1:22Speaker 3: didn't call nine one one either. It was paramedics who
- 1:25Speaker 3: happened to be in the area spotted her off lynn
- 1:27Speaker 3: Wood near Davison Street. Delia did not make it. She
- 1:31Speaker 3: always had a fear of this intersection because at eleven
- 1:34Speaker 3: years old, she witnessed the trauma of a lifetime.
- 1:37Speaker 2: My grandma wife's time. Mama died at the end of
- 1:39Speaker 2: that corner the same exact way, Or told. Delia's husband
- 1:43Speaker 2: just clings to her purse, stay and night. He can't
- 1:46Speaker 2: believe this is real life.
- 1:47Speaker 1: I hope he run so doing what he did to
- 1:50Speaker 1: my wife. Rest in peace, Delia Dinwiddie. I'm not here
- 1:54Speaker 1: to judge Joseph. I'm just here to ask questions. I
- 1:56Speaker 1: understand you take pride in your job. You're probably the
- 1:58Speaker 1: best Peacha delivery man and all of Detroit. You want
- 2:01Speaker 1: to make sure those pies get the people hot, fresh
- 2:03Speaker 1: and in the timely manner. But sir, if you hit
- 2:05Speaker 1: a human with a vehicle and don't stop because you
- 2:07Speaker 1: have to make sure someone gets their red sauce and
- 2:09Speaker 1: mozzarella pizza, like, are you serious? I understand being scared,
- 2:13Speaker 1: but lying to yourself about it not being a problem
- 2:15Speaker 1: doesn't make said problem go away, especially when you know
- 2:18Speaker 1: you just you know, hit somebody and just left them
- 2:20Speaker 1: laying in the street. I just want to know what
- 2:22Speaker 1: part of the human brain says delivering this pizza is
- 2:25Speaker 1: more important than acknowledging I just potentially might have hurt someone, Okay,
- 2:29Speaker 1: potentially might have killed someone. You chose pizza over a person,
- 2:32Speaker 1: Pepperoni's over principals, cheese, over your own conscience. And what
- 2:35Speaker 1: makes the story even more tragic because you just heard
- 2:37Speaker 1: it this woman was killed or two things. She was
- 2:40Speaker 1: killed on the same block she met her husband at
- 2:43Speaker 1: forty four years ago, so think about how long they've
- 2:45Speaker 1: been together. And according to Fox to Detroit, you just
- 2:47Speaker 1: heard Dilia was killed at the exact same intersection her
- 2:51Speaker 1: own mother was killed at, also by a vehicle decades earlier.
- 2:56Speaker 1: Can you imagine you're already dealing with this general trauma
- 3:00Speaker 1: of losing your mother in that way, and then you
- 3:02Speaker 1: lose the daughter the exact same way decades later. The
- 3:06Speaker 1: woman had a fear of the lynn Wood and Davison
- 3:09Speaker 1: intersection because of what she saw at eleven years old,
- 3:12Speaker 1: watching her mother get killed by a car there. Her
- 3:14Speaker 1: granddaughter spoke about it, and she said she always said
- 3:18Speaker 1: she didn't want to die over here, and she did
- 3:20Speaker 1: not want to die like that, and she did both.
- 3:22Speaker 1: That is scary and also makes me really think about
- 3:25Speaker 1: how your thoughts truly can become things. But that woman
- 3:27Speaker 1: couldn't shake the trauma she saw, not without professional help,
- 3:30Speaker 1: and even with professional help, watching your mom die like that,
- 3:33Speaker 1: of course you're gonna think about that for the rest
- 3:36Speaker 1: of your life, and you damn right, you're gonna hope
- 3:38Speaker 1: and pray that you don't go out the same way. Joseph,
- 3:41Speaker 1: I just need to know what was you thinking? Now.
- 3:44Speaker 1: If Joseph is convicted, he could spin up to fifteen
- 3:46Speaker 1: years in prison. Think about that. Joseph went from delivering
- 3:50Speaker 1: a hot and ready, nine inch meat level pizza the customers,
- 3:54Speaker 1: the now possibly becoming a meat lover getting delivered nine
- 3:57Speaker 1: inches hot ready or not? All because he lack compassion, Okay,
- 4:02Speaker 1: and love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them,
- 4:06Speaker 1: humanity cannot survive, and the lack of humanity in this
- 4:09Speaker 1: story proves that quote to be true. Please give Joseph
- 4:13Speaker 1: Stewart the biggest he hulled, so damn sad, beyond that,
- 4:22Speaker 1: beyond beyond beyond that. All right, well, thank you for
- 4:25Speaker 1: that donkey today. Yes, indeed,
