Judge Bars Autopsy Plea in Kopechne Case
A Pennsylvania judge dismissed parents objections to an autopsy on Mary Jo Kopechne’s body and ordered a hearing Oct. 20 on Massachusetts District Attorney Dinis’s petition to reopen the issue. The ruling allows Massachusetts authorities to pursue an autopsy if a court finds need. The case stems from the 1969 Chappaquiddick incident involving Senator Edward M Kennedy.
