Kennedy inquest limits Farrar testimony on Kopechne case
Judge James A. Boyle barred testimony that Mary Jo Kopechne might have survived if Edward Kennedy summoned help sooner. John Farrar was allowed to testify only about recovering Kopechne from Kennedy's submerged car on Chappaquiddick Island. The inquest aims to determine if criminal proceedings are warranted, with a report to the Massachusetts Supreme Court after all possibility of prosecution ends.
