A little more detail exists than what has been reported until now, at least according to Powerline. I always suspected the worst about Kennedy, and this shows that to be justified. He tried to get somebody to take the rap for what he did himself. Not only that, they ( him and his cousin ) made a failed attempt at a rescue, and STILL didn't tell authorities, and STILL lied about it.
The key point was the resort to the dishonesty in order to protect one's political position.
Kennedy should not have been in public life after that. The lack of accountability is how we end up with guys like him. In the present, we have got Hillary Clinton, who just may become the next president. It just seems to get worse and worse. Chappaquiddick was only about one person. Benghazi was only about four people. But one of these days, the entire nation may be in the same position as those people if we keep putting people like this into positions of power.
There's no respect for truth. This is going to bite us real hard one of these days.
