Correction. Her death was not accidental. the car crash was accidental. The young lady's death was the result of negligence, selfishness, and fear (at best.) Liberal lion? more like cowardly lion

The name Kennedy allows for get out of jail perks. Talking about the Hyannis Port "THE KENNEDY'S"

There is a lot more about the life of this womanizing sot that should have haunted him. I had absolutely no respect for him in life nor will I in his death. I pray the end of the reign of the Kennedys is over.

This article seems to question whether Mary Jo could have been saved. When they recovered her body her head was in the last place an air pocket would have formed when the car flipped into the water. The people who recovered her said that if they were called right away she could have been saved. There is no question about it, Teddy caused this girls death. Very, very sad.

This was the defining moment of his life. Nothing will ever change that.

Seems that Ted Kennedy has had a very serious drinking problem for many years, seems the time he stopped it was his marriage in his late 50's. On the night of the death of Mary Jo they probaly had all been drinking, believe that is one reason he did not go to the police of course he had many DUIs thou the years before this. At the time many people believed someone that would leave another human in the water, was not a great person to become a president so he was not voted for in the primary. Thou the years Ted Kennedy became a much better person and did seem to care about other people. Yes he did pass many bills for the good of the country. So we had a late starter that was not a very good person who finally grew up later in life. Can truly say today that he ended up a good man. Rest in peace

Only days before, Kennedy had left the scene of a fatal car crash on the small island of Chappaquiddick on Martha's Vineyard, taking the life of 28-year-old Mary Jo Kopechne.

The second-term senator WAITED nearly 10HOURS to report the accident and offered virtually NO EXPLAINATION other than he "panicked."

Manslaughter or negligent homicide come to mind. Got to love the kennedy's they get away with murder...& rape and what other crimes have the lot committed???? too many to think of all of them.

Legacy of Ted Kennedy
It has often been written that Mary Jo Kopechne "drowned." She didn't. The cause of death was asphyxiation -- there was an air pocket inside the overturned car, and Mary Jo lived long enough to breathe the last remaining oxygen in that air pocket. And while Mary Jo was breathing her last . . . what did Ted Kennedy do?

Well, among other things, he began trying to concoct a cover-up story: "Why couldn't Mary Jo have been driving the car? . . . Why couldn't she have let him off and driven to the ferry herself and made a wrong turn?" His own cousin, Joe Gargan, talked Ted out of attempting to get away with that.

Kennedy beat the rap. Multiple witnesses have testified that Kennedy had been drinking all day. It was a clear-cut case of vehicular manslaughter, but he was allowed to plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge of leaving the scene of an accident.

Nation didn't believe his story

According to a Time-Harris poll (Time 8/6/69), the account offered by Kennedy over nationwide television on the Friday following the accident was not accepted by a majority of the American people. Fifty-one percent felt that it was an inadequate explanation of what he was doing at the post-regatta party and of what he was doing with Kopechne, on right. The responses questioned his honesty. Even for that minority who believed him, the event raised questions about his ability to handle a crisis.

AND PEOPLE ARE PROUD OF THIS MURDERER!!!

Kennedy called the police the next morning. By then the wreck had already been discovered. Before dying, Kopechne had scratched at the upholstered floor above her head in the upside-down car. The Kennedy family began pulling strings, ensuring that any inquiry would be contained. Her corpse was whisked out-of-state to her family, before an autopsy could be conducted. Further details are uncertain, but after the accident Kennedy says he repeatedly dove under the water trying to rescue Kopechne, and he didn't call police because he was in a state of shock. In versions not so kind, it is widely assumed Kennedy was drunk, that he was having an affair with Kopechne, and/or that he held off calling police in hopes that his family could fix the problem overnight.

Ding Dong, the wicked witch is dead...He doesn't deserve Arlington. Behind the scenes, Kennedy concocted this POS health care overhaul which incorporates health care rationing that will kill seniors and terminally ill, the RFID chip (the mark) and would provide for tracking and genocide...What a crock..What would history be like if he had been the victim at Chappaquiddick?

Didn't like him or his brothers.
But I won't judge him.
For those who believe in a Supreme Being.....
I guess he will get his just reward....
Whatever that is.
For those who don't....
He's worm food.

I'll never understand the thinking of the people of Mass. who, in spite of what a sorry human being Teddy was, continued to put him in office year after year. Whats with that place???

Mary Jo Kopechne could not be reached for comment.

I went to Chappaquiddick a few years ago.....when I saw it I realized he was guilty...you had to take a left and it led to a somewhat unpaved road that led to a short bridge that went to a sandbar...there was nothing there across the bridge..other than sand...there were no markers for MAry Jo Kopechne....I think someone paid her family off to keep them quiet....it made me feel really sad when I saw just how isolated it was....I have had nothing but disrespect for him ever since.

Alright, Ted Kennedy screwed up. He was involved in an accident and his family power and money helped it all go away. It wasn't murder, it wasn't even manslaughter, it was an accident. He could have gone away and hid. Instead this man spent the next forty years doing his best to make America a better place to live. I have not agreed with all his policies, but unlike many, he never stopped trying. There will be many accolades going his way in the next few days. Pay attention, you may not only learn something, but you may appreciate what he has done for our country.

I have never believed he was in the car but had gotten out to hide before she drove off the bridge. They saw a cop car shortly before that and he did not want to be caught out there at night with a young woman being married and a public figure. She continued on down the road (to come back later when the coast was clear) and drove off the narrow bridge. Witnesses said when he returned to the cottage where the party was his clothes were dry. If he had been in the car he would have been killed too.

Woman got pregnant, senator didn't want scandal, woman and fetus die in "accident." Please don't blow smoke up my A**. Victims deserved justice, they didn't receive it.

Bridge over troubled waters

(((((This matter is between Ted and his Creator)))))

Only now can I say it.
Speaking as a lifelong Irish, American Democrat, I can say that I believe Lee Harvey Oswald and Sirhan-Sirhan each killed the wrong man. Ted Kennedy's "tender mercies" were actually cruel in so many hidden and unpublished ways.
When he gave his speech-full of lies and innuendo against Robert Bork, he hurt this country in ways from which she will not recover. Ever.
When he used his voice in supporting the slaughter of the innocents, he hurt this country and all her people.
When he supported America's enemies in time of war, he was a traitor.
When he held Government's Power as being greater than People's Freedom to individual self-determination, their ownership of the fruits of their own labors, and the use of their own property, he struck at the very heart of the Freedom that once caused The United States of America to be known to all peoples as "the Land of Opportunity".

Just the facts, Ma'am.

As floor manager of the 1965 Immigration Act Kennedy assured the country

“First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually. Under the proposed bill, the present level of immigration remains substantially the same… Secondly, the ethnic mix of this country will not be upset…. Contrary to the charges in some quarters, [the bill] will not inundate America with immigrants from any one country or area, or the most populated and deprived nations of Africa and Asia….

In the final analysis, the ethnic pattern of immigration under the proposed measure is not expected to change as sharply as the critics seem to think.”

These words should be his epitaph.

He killed this young lady and autopsy was never allowed the family. It was power brokers in his state that prevented justice. He will now get the justice he deserves, HELL.
It would not surprise me if he had gotten her pregnant. She was about to spill the beans and the animal that he was decided to kill her. Took 10 hours to report he put his car in the water. Anyone else would have served life in prison minimum.
Kennedy was known as the Lion, to most of us that means devil cat from hell. Obama will be known as the Rat from hell.
Want socialism that is what Obama is bringing to America and you Messiah lovers are falling for a snare around your necks, He only cares about Obama, nothing else.

when i heard he died the 1st thing in my mind was ..imagine him in front of the man...no interns no money and no power...can you believe i talk to people about how he killed this poor woman and the answer of all people is ..well it happened years ago and hes helped people since.....
