Kennedys Deny Ted Asked Cousin to Take the Rap
A Kennedy family source dismissed a Washington Post report by Jack Anderson claiming Senator Edward M Kennedy asked cousin Joseph Gargan to take the blame for the Chappaquiddick crash. Gargan rented the cottage where Kopechne, Kennedy, and others gathered. Kennedy said he drove Kopechne to the ferry when the car went off a bridge and he escaped the wreck. The family calls the report entirely untrue with no basis in fact.
