** This very question is brought up in the episode. Sharona outright asks Biederbeck how he was able to track down information that no one else had, and he boasts "Sweetheart, I am ''Dale the WHALE!''" Remember that Dale made a good portion of his riches as an InformationBroker extraordinaire--we know that he had dirt on sitting politicians (his EstablishingCharacterMoment is him forcing a congressman to agree to one of his deals in the middle of a committee hearing). So even if [[spoiler: Rickover]] didn't tell Dale, Biederbeck was probably able to piece together what happened via his sources. Plus remember that Biederbeck sued Trudy after she wrote a critical article on him for a newspaper; he probably dug as much into her past as possible then, which [[spoiler: gave him the dirt on Trudy's affair with Rickover.]]

* FridgeLogic: Given the revelations in the series finale, how the hell did Dale know anything about Trudy's death or who was involved? It's highly unlikely [[spoiler: Rickover]] told him.

The death still theoretically exists as of now, but executions have been halted
