I happen to know people who knew the area well at the time. There was a nearby house clearly visible with all of its lights on, a normal practice of theirs because they had an autistic child. Kennedy could have easily gone to their door and asked to call for help.

I saw Chappaquiddick last night and I give it a thumbs up. The producers of the movie didn't try to gloss over Kennedy's image or his negligence. It's definitely a warts and all portrayal of Kennedy and the entire incident. I remember when Ted Kennedy was speaking at the 1988 Democratic National Convention. He was speaking about the Iran Contra scandal and demanding to know where George Bush (the Republican candidate for President in 1988) was during that time and what involvement he may have had in it. Throughout his speech he had the crowd chanting 'where was George'? A republican senator later replied 'Bush was at home with his wife sober'.

Also, it doesn't necessarily tell the truth, only Ted's version of it. I had a feeling there was more to it. Too many things don't make sense, especially him not getting help for her immediately, just assuming she's dead. If you care at all about someone, you hold out every hope for their survival, even when it looks hopeless. You do everything possible to make sure there was no chance of saving her life. If you've ever been in a situation remotely like that, you know that you're hope doesn't end until there is absolutely no question, no matter how remotely possible, that they might live.

Many reasons possible. 1."Once he opened the door in the water, could the door be closed?" Yes. With Ted first getting out, more water might have filled in the car and the water pressure shot Ted's door just after he got out and more water now might have applied to much pressure on the doors and windows for Mary Jo to get out. 2.Mary Jo was much smaller than Ted and might not have overpowered the doors and windows of the car unlike Ted. 3. Mary Jo was a female and she might have been scared and panicked more than Ted to manoeuvre out of the car 4. Mary Jo was on the right passenger seat, making her instantly cognizant that they were just about to go off the bridge from the right side which made her closer to the accident as it was about to happen and just happened which might have made her more panicked.

Just because your last name is Kennedy does not mean you are a qualified leader or public servant , it's weird how the poorest and richest tend to inbreed .

I saw the movie. It was powerful. I am surprised that this movie even had a chance of being shown in the theater. Jason Clarke did a wonderful job portraying Ted Kennedy. I remember all the television coverage at the time of this incident and remember Teddy Kennedy as he was called then, by most People, wearing that cervical collar out in public. I believe that Ted Kennedy was a conflicted Man. He wanted to do the right thing, but he also wanted to realize his ambitious political goals, and he was also corrupt. One thing he did know, and that was his political aspirations to be President was in the toilet because of what happened, and that was a good thing for the rest of us.

In some senses, I think the Kennedy's were pigs, yet in others I think they were visionaries (especially John and Bobby) who might have seen the error of their ways and took steps to right their legacies just a blink of time before it was too late. I will never be unbothered by the true feeling, based on witness statements, that RFK had Marilyn Monroe killed and was probably right next to her when she received a lethal injection.

It makes perfect sense if Ted was drunk. He was drunk much of his life. Easy dots to connect.

Well, I have my opinion. I understand people trying to keep her name clean and she did not deserve to die, but that take that she was a pure lily, she snuck out with Ted, did not say her good byes to her friends and left her purse behind in the cottage. Ted did not drive anymore but took the car out at night, no lights and the cop who saw the car parked suspiciously and then taking off very fast. Still too many questions unanswered, after 50 years and all involved now gone. My take, she went for a little hanky panky with a married man with all intention to return to the cottage afterwards.

It's very sad that such a long time was allowed to pass before the authorities were notified that an accident occurred. The long delay must have felt a most heartless thing to those most directly affected by this tragedy. A delay like that could only be excused if it had happened in the Wild West. However, it is also very sad that Ted Kennedy had, by 1969, lost three older brothers violently (one also in WW2). That's a psychological and emotional burden for anyone whether you are rich or poor. But the Kopneche parents lost their only child, their daughter. There could be no plan B for them at all. The lady cousin interviewed here is very well-spoken. That in itself is a clue to the talent and goodness of her cousin who died, forty-nine years ago.

I just saw the movie last night. This lady is right. The guy playing Ted Kennedy was Ted Kennedy !!! Best movie ive seen in years and did a great job to making the story of Chappaquidick real and that real people were destroyed. Teds father died a couple of months later and Teds wife had a miscarriage shortly after the incident. I dont know how Ted lived with himself .

,, Sad loss of what appears, a sweet beautiful girl. Should not have happened. Not this way for sure. How could anyone LEAVE a young lady in a car under water?? Go home and not go for help?? Yeah, This was just to dirty to touch. This is as Bad as The MURDER of sweet little Martha Moxley. Just expendable young, beautiful girls it seems.

The real truth about this will never be known. Anything who has read the available details will know that the Kennedy machine did everything it could to _ensure_ that we will ever know. . . .

His first thought after he got out of the sunken car was, "how do I save my political career: where's a phone; I need to call my lawyers". The Left sneers at the Bush's and Reagan, but can you imagine them running from that accident, rather than doing everything possible to save the girl ?

I worked with Governor Farris Bryants neice in the 1960's She never bragged, or made a big deal out of being related to him... Her and her mother always attended galas in Tallahassee when Govenor Bryant was in office. She told me about Mary Jo Kopechne breaking up Senator George Smathers marriage. Yet this was all hush hush, in these Galas Smather would show up with his wife... now this was in 1962 or 63... she just added that this Kopechne woman was after anyone that was rich or famous. After Smathers broke up with her, she immediately went after helping to get Kennedy Elected as president... So image my disbelief when all that happened in Chappaquiddick, for I had long since been fired from that company I had worked for

I remember the joke of the day (1969) was Mary Jo telling Teddy 'I'm pregnant' & Teddy responding 'we'll cross that bridge when we get there'.

Ted is paying for his crimes in hell.

Yeah, Kennedy was a bastard, but that headline, "Ted safe; blonde dies" doesn't paint that news editor's attitude towards women in a good light either.

"Hey darling Teddy, I just found out I'm pregnant... 'Don't worry Mary Jo, We'll cross that bridge when we get to it'!" -- BTW, Donald Trump wouldn't of been a Drunk Fool at all... and He would 'of Saved Her!

so true. those words should have been the headline.

Why was her body found not wearing any underwear ? It is such a disgrace that Hollywood only got the guts to make this movie after Ted Kennedy is gone and excused from answering all the questions about his part in this horrible incident.

The double standard of the democrats...

The kennedy curse. They deserve it.

She would have been better off campaigning for Nixon.

This lady is quite well spoken. Mary Jo is proud of her

From the clip, I have to ask. Are you seriously trying to make her one night affair with Ted Kennedy a philosophical encounter. Give me a break, in years past I attended many of those "parties" and this movie isn't like any of them. I have a question, if the family had known she may have suffered for up to three hours would they have demanded a larger payoff?

Why didn't Ted Kennedy get help for her?!? It makes no sense, at all.

He was drunk, in shock and concussed from the accident. Remember he had also almost died in a plane crash four years earlier. He's still guilty of manslaughter, but he certainly didn't murder her.

My best friend, a renowned swimming coach, always referred to Teddy as "The Long Distance Swimmer", a jab at his failure to negotiate the treacherous waters off of Edgartown. The distance from Chappaquiddick to Edgartown is 400 ft, about 5 lengths of a swimming pool!

@@christopherlehnert7071 Ted left her for dead. That's him rescuing his career priority objective number one importance.

What they didn't answer in the movie is if all four doors were shut and all four windows were rolled up how did Ted get out of the car?

Teddy was caught cheating for one of his Final Exams at Harvard and was suspended in the 1950's...IN 1960's he was ticketed for reckless driving and driving with a suspended license before this..

Didn't get much negative attention from the press...as I remember!

Mary Jo was a family friend.He KILLED that beautiful girl

'mistakenly' turned off the pavement onto a dirt road? it was deliberate.

Here's the testimony of the diver who actually recovered her body at the scene.John Farrar was the captain of the Edgartown Fire Rescue unit and the diver who recovered Kopechne's body. He alleged that Kopechne died from suffocation rather than from drowning or from the impact of the overturned vehicle. This hypothesis was based upon the posture in which he found the body and the body's relative position to the area of an ultimate air pocket in the overturned vehicle. Farrar also asserted that Kopechne would have probably survived if a more timely rescue attempt had been conducted.[40][41][42] Farrar located Kopechne's body in the well of the backseat of the overturned submerged car. Rigor mortis was apparent, her hands were clasping the backseat, and her face was turned upward.[43] Farrar testified at the Inquest:It looked as if she were holding herself up to get a last breath of air. It was a consciously assumed position.... She didn't drown. She died of suffocation in her own air void. It took her at least three or four hours to die. I could have had her out of that car twenty-five minutes after I got the call. But he [Ted Kennedy] didn't call.- diver John Farrar, Inquest into the Death of Mary Jo Kopechne, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Edgartown District Court. New York: EVR Productions, 1970.Later at the inquest, Farrar testified that Kopechne's body was pressed up in the car in the spot where an air bubble would have formed. He interpreted that to mean that Kopechne had survived in the air bubble after the crash, and he concluded thatHad I received a call within five to ten minutes of the accident occurring, and was able, as I was the following morning, to be at the victim's side within twenty-five minutes of receiving the call, in such event there is a strong possibility that she would have been alive on removal from the submerged car.[19]Farrar believed that Kopechne "lived for at least two hours down there."[44]

It did NOT end TK’s White House aspirations. Ted Kennedy still ran in the primaries against Jimmy Carter 10 years later & voters ended those aspirations.

I remember. Also we b in jail.

Most people don't know this but Mary Jo Kopechne was driving the car by herself and she drove off the bridge. Robert Kennedy was drunk and had been tailed by the police that night so to avoid an embarrassing DUI he got out and walked and had her drive on without him.

As I told folks all too many years ago: Ted Kennedy's car killed more people than my handgun. What's Hell like Teddy Boy? RIP Mary Jo and Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island.

If it was a minority man she had dated, the man would have disappeared and never to be found again. People have gone missing for less. Just ask Jimmy Hoffa if you can find him.

So sad I can not even imagine losing a child especially this way, but every time I'd see or hear Ted Kennedy I'd feel a little ill, his holier than thou attitude, something the left has adopted, rather disgusting he wasn't held accountable and imprisoned the rest of his life

You won't see this interview on CNN or MSNBC.

She could have survived 3 hours in a bubble in the submerged car; if only Ted Kennedy and done the right thing and called police so they could have sent divers to rescue her.

She was in the backseat due air bubble was in the back window area of the car. When John Kennedy was in the Navy in ww. 2 he swam to safety with a fellow injured serviceman on his back after his PT boat sank. Very sad to hear she may have survived 3 or more hours in the submerged car. Imagine if Ted was made of the same stuff his brother was Maryjo might still be alive.

I thought this film was amazing on every level. Regardless of what political party you are affiliated with, this film depicts what is wrong with politicians, if there are no witnesses, just create "The Alibi" and walk away.

Speculation continues...? No, not really. Teddy was drunk and went off the bridge, and a woman drowned. End of story. He was gutless, at the least.

Just try to imagine what would've happened if a distinguished _Republican_ from outside Massachusetts had been the driver/owner of the car. . . .

The original lyin’ Ted!

The Kennedy name is Mud.

The Kennedy's evading responsibility. they got everything the deserved.

This whole thing makes no sense to me, why was no autopsy done on her body, surely its a legal requirement no matter how you die, if she was driving as some have suggested, why would kennedy take the blame, he was a married man with children, why not just say he wasn't with her. If he was in the car, why wait till the morning to say he tried to save her, again why not say he was not in the car. Several witnesses say they saw him the next morning an he seemed normal, smiling and talking to people, he would have to be a very good actor to hide his guilt if he just left her to drown. I think he was set up to stop him running for president and she was just a pawn in their sick game, they had already killed 2 kennedys a third would have looked too suspicious.

just saw this film. it is a very good movie well worth checking out

Ted Kennedy was a privileged spoiled younger brother who didn’t do the right thing. He has been judged by God for all the huge mistakes he was involved in during his lifetime. The Kennedy Family Legacy has become so tarnished over the years because of the behavior of the three remaining brothers over time.

Okay, tell the truth, his one thought and one thought only when it happened was the stain on the Kennedy name, and careers. Self preservation mode kicked in and he bolted.

Ted was not in the car when the accident happened!! He was on way to hotel because they got spotted by the sheriff!

Ended his WH aspirations. Please check the 1980 Democratic Convention. Pleanty aspiration was on display.
