A woman leaves a party having a wealthy US senator. The next morning her person is found out in his car in the bottom of a pond.This is the damning true story from the death of campaign strategist Mary Jo Kopechne at Chappaquiddick and of the senator-a thirty-seven-year-old Senator Ted Kennedy-who left her trapped underwater while he returned to his hotel, slept, and made calls to associates. It is the story of a powerful, privileged American guy who was able to deal with a woman’s existence as about Chappaquiddick: Power, Privilege, as well as the Ted Kennedy Cover-Up disposable without facing actual consequences. And it is the story of the shameful politics cover-up involving one of the nation’s most well-connected family members and its own network of attorneys, pr people, and close friends who made certain Ted Kennedy continued to be a respected member of the Senate for forty even more years.Leo Damore’s 1988 national bestseller, originally entitled Senatorial Privilege, nearly didn’t help to make it into print after its primary publisher, Random House, judged it too explosive and backed out of its agreement with Damore. Mysteriously, none of the additional big New York publishers picked it up. Only once small 3rd party publisher Regnery acquired the manuscript was the book’s publication permitted and the real story from the so-called “Chappaquiddick occurrence” finally informed. This thirtiethth wedding anniversary model of Senatorial Privilege has been released to coincide with the countrywide theatrical release of the film Chappaquiddick starring Jason Clarke, Kate Mara, Ed Helms, Bruce Dern, and Jim Gaffigan.
