I‘ve always heard references to the Chappaquidick accident as being what derailed Ted Kennedy‘s presidential chances. In reading the full story, I didn‘t expect to be frustrated sometimes angry between Kennedy‘s cowardice and lack of responsibility, local law enforcement‘s ineptitude, and the general lack of consequences Kennedy faced. He should have been sitting in a jail cell for several years for his actions.
