JUSTICE FOR ALL DELAWAREANS

Source-published biography

Her Father’s Legacy: Patty’s father, Jack Rickman, was a veteran and her protector. After witnessing the trauma she endured surviving a strangulation attempt, Jack stood by her side. When he was dying of kidney failure, the Family Court denied a continuance, forcing Patty to face a legal system that ignored her family’s grief. “Justice isn't just about what happens inside a courtroom. It's about remembering that behind every case number is a human being, a family, and a life.”
