Why didn’t the Republicans go after that big fish. What would the Democrats have done?

Kennedy escaped the car and then dove down in an attempt to retrieve Kopechne from the sunken Oldsmobile. Failing, he stumbled back to the cottage, where he enlisted Gargan and another friend in a second attempt to save Kopechne. The three men were unsuccessful; her body was not recovered. The trio then went to the ferry slip, where Kennedy dove into the water and swam back to Edgartown, about a mile away.

BS.

He went back to the party to tell his lawyer friends what happened and they formulated a plan to rescue Kennedy from prison.

Quotes from Teddy.

I'll drive off that bridge when I come to it.

How is the water down there Mary Jo?

On July 25, Kennedy pleaded guilty to leaving the scene of an accident, received a two-month suspended sentence, and had his license suspended for a year.

I don’t think he was driving. I think he had her drop him off and left her to her own devices driving back in an unfamiliar, dangerous area.

There is no way that Ted Kennedy could swim a mile.

And he continued to destroy the country for another thirty years because Mary Jo’s family took the payoff instead of doing the right thing and holding him accountable.

Tragic.

And he called his cousin to try and get him to take the blame

And Teddy was so grief stricken after this incident that he never touched liquor again

He got a free pass from being a kennedy, rich, and a democrat.

There used to be a great web site revealing the truth about this event called ytedk.com

Now defunct, it is more-or-less completely available at the Wayback Machine:

Worthwhile.

He got away with murder. Period. Because of his family name and copious amounts of money.

I’ve always wondered how much the Kopechne family was paid to remain silent.

Kennedy escaped the submerged car, but his passenger, 28-year-old Mary Jo Kopechne, did not. The senator did not report the fatal car accident for 10 hours.

Ted Kennedy at Chappaquiddick: another---

And the people of Massachusetts sent a coward at best, a murderer at worst, to the senate for 38 years.

This I have never believed. There was no heroic rescue attempt. Ted Kennedy impregnated Mary Jo Kopechne. And when he drove the Oldsmobile off that bridge, he left her to drown. To him she was just another throwaway girl.

That's the real Ted Kennedy. That he did not go to prison was a travesty. That he stayed in the Senate, was given a head of state funeral, and buried in Arlington National Cemetery was and is an abomination!

This tragedy should have ended Edward M. Kennedy’s political career once and for all.

1969 and the law didn’t apply to the elites. Here we are in 2017 and the law still doesn’t apply to the elites. Sad.

F fat Ted. The gutless weak manslaughter he was.

His dirt nap was long overdue.

I only wish he had slid under a gas truck and tasted his own blood.
