Your execution on the donkey of the day is something to behold. Is it a read? He gave me donkey of the day and I deserve it. People need to know. Well, you need to tell them. I am. You have the voice. Tell them.

It's time for donkey of the day. It's a read, but you're so good at it. You're trying to be a fake ass Charlemagne. The only one Charlemagne to go. Damn Charlemagne, who you give the donkey of the day to now? Well, Sexy Red, I should have warned y'all too. This one is dark, sadly. Donkey of the day from Monday, June 17th goes to a man named Joseph Stewart.

He is a suspect in the killing of Delia Dinwiddie, 56 years old, sending healing energy to her family. She was the victim of a hit and run because Joseph allegedly struck her with a vehicle and kept it moving. He didn't stop to help. He didn't call 911. In fact, he kept doing his job. What was his job? Let's go to Fox 2 Detroit for the report, please. He could at least stop, turned around and look, just kept going. Delia Dinwiddie's widow has not slept much since his wife was hit and killed run over last week by a delivery driver a block from where she lives. The same block they met on 44 years ago. We believe that he knew that he had hit someone and he continued his course of travel to finish his delivery.

Detroit Police Commander Rebecca McKay says the suspect, Joseph Stewart, didn't call 911 either. It was paramedics who happened to be in the area spotted her off Linwood near Davidson Street. Delia did not make it. She always had a fear of this intersection because at 11 years old, she witnessed the trauma of a lifetime. My grandma watched her mama die at the end of that corner the same exact way. We're told Delia's husband just clings to her purse day and night he can't believe this is real life i hope he run here for doing what he did to my wife rest in peace

delia then witty i'm not here to judge joseph i'm just here to ask questions i understand you take pride in your job you're probably the best pizza delivery man in all of detroit you want to make sure those pies get to people hot fresh and in a timely manner but sir if you hit a human with a vehicle and don't stop because you have to make sure someone gets their red sauce and mozzarella pizza like are you serious i understand being scared but lying to yourself about it not being a problem doesn't make said problem go away especially when you know you just you know hit somebody and just left him laying in the street i just want to know what part of the human brain says delivering this pizza is more important than acknowledging i just potentially might have hurt someone okay potentially might have killed someone you chose pizza over a person pepperonis over

principles cheese over your own conscience now what makes the story even more tragic is you just heard it this woman was killed or two things she was killed on the same block she met her husband at 44 years ago so think about how long they've been together and according to fox 2 detroit you just heard uh delia was killed at the exact same intersection her own mother was killed at also by a vehicle decades earlier can you imagine you're already dealing with this generational trauma of losing your mother in that way and then you lose the daughter the exact same way decades later the woman had a fear of the lynnwood and davidson intersection um because of what she saw at 11 years old watching her mother get killed by a car there her granddaughter uh spoke about it

and she said she always said she didn't want to die over here and she did not want to die like that and she did both that is scary and also makes me really think about how your thoughts truly can become things but that woman couldn't shake the trauma she saw not without professional help and even with professional help watching your mom die like that of course you're gonna think about that for the rest of your life and you damn right you're gonna hope and pray that you don't go out the same way joseph i just need to know what was you thinking now if joseph is convicted he could spend up to 15 years in prison think about that joseph went from delivering a hot and ready nine inch meat lover pizza to customers to now possibly becoming a meat lover getting delivered nine

inches hot ready or not all because he lacked compassion okay and love and compassion are necessities not luxuries without them humanity cannot survive and the lack of humanity in this story proves that quote to be true please give joseph stewart the biggest hee-haw wow so damn sad beyond sad beyond beyond beyond sad all right well thank you for that donkey today yes indeed
