So - she lived for a while in an air pocket - and Ted could have gotten her out. Again - this was a complete cover-up of the truth at the time, and the doctors were either bought or intimidated. AND early on Ted was planning to state that SHE was driving the car - but his team finally said - NO!
And - NO autopsy was performed even though it was a MA state law. Yet again...only the rich and famous and politicians... grrrrrrrrrrr.

I agree. Back then I was a huge fan of the Kennedys. Now I know that John was NO angel, nor Bobby, nor Ted........I was too young to vote for John Kennedy but remember going to see him in Ohio. It was unheard of for a Roman Catholic to run for the office of president and there were plenty of Pope/tunnel rumors going around. (That they would build a tunnel under the ocean so that the papacy would have easy access to the White House.) Time has gone by but huge rumors are still swallowed whole.
