Kennedy kin wins round in Skakel case over statements
A Connecticut appellate ruling says a Bridgeport judge erred in denying Michael Skakel privilege over statements made at a school and substance abuse treatment center. Skakel, 15 at the time of Martha Moxley’s 1975 death, seeks to shield remarks from grand jury testimony in the unsolved Greenwich murder probe. The case ties to Sen. Robert F. Kennedy’s family. The ruling narrows potential evidence but does not resolve the broader inquiry.
