The late Sen. Ted Kennedy was involved in a scandal that resulted in the death of a young lady nearly 50 years ago. Many today have forgotten (or weren’t even born), but a new movie spells out the events of the night and its creators are receiving flack for telling the story.
“Unfortunately, there are some very powerful people who tried to put pressure on me not to release this movie,” said Byron Allen, executive producer of the film and Entertainment Studios CEO. “They went out of their way to try and influence me in a negative way. I made it very clear that I’m not about the right, I’m not about the left. I’m about the truth.”
Sen. Kennedy was seen as a formidable prospect for the upcoming presidential race in 1972.
But the undisputed facts are that on July 18, 1969, Kennedy drove from a party with Mary Jo Kopechne as his passenger, and she died in the vehicle after it was driven into a channel and submerged.
