Prosecutor says the Kennedy nephew Michael Skakel case will go forward after key witness Gregory Coleman died of an apparent drug overdose in New York. Coleman testified that Skakel admitted killing Martha Moxley in 1975, but his reliability was questioned due to heroin use. The prosecutor will use a transcript of Coleman's testimony and other witnesses to pursue the case.
