DELAWARE: Jeff Balk, who was elected chair of the Sussex County Democratic Party in March, has been pressured to step down after it was learned he had spent seven years in a Missouri prison in the late 1980s for having paid young boys for sex. Some said he has paid his debt to society and is now a model citizen. Others suggest pedophiles can’t be trusted.

HISTORY: In the brutal winter of 1846-1847, the Donner Party became stranded in the Sierra Nevada mountains, battling starvation and freezing temperatures. While the paid rescuers each chose to take one survivor to safety, Stark refused to leave anyone behind. His story wasn’t widely recorded in early Donner Party accounts, and only surfaced later through survivor recollections and local histories. Unlike more prominent figures in the rescue efforts, Stark didn’t seek recognition, and his name rarely appears in textbooks or dramatizations of the tragedy.
