Sen. Edward M. Kennedy was celebrated Saturday for "the good he did, the dream he kept alive," as well as some of the things that he couldn't keep alive, such as poor Mary Jo Kopechne...
Kennedy left the party, driving a 1967 Oldsmobile Delmont 88 with one of the women, 28-year-old Mary Jo Kopechne and later accidentally drove off Dike Bridge into the Poucha Pond inlet, a tidal channel on Chappaquiddick Island. Kennedy escaped the overturned vehicle, swam to safety and left the scene. He did not call authorities until after Kopechne's body was discovered the following day.
