50 years ago a couple of fishermen noticed a car overturned and submerged up to its tires in a pond. With no splash or anything else that indicated an accident had happened, the police found out the owner of the car: Edward M. Kennedy.
, Ted drank beer during the sailing race; drank three rum-and-Cokes during the ritual congratulatory toast for the winner, Ross Richards; and, before he went to the party, he drank some beer with friends at his room at the Shiretown Inn.
Per McGinniss, the manager of the Shiretown Inn was the first non-partygoer to see Kennedy after the accident, noting that he saw him seemingly coming downstairs from his room at 2:25 a.m. on the morning of July 19. Kennedy seemed out of sorts and said he had heard party noise coming from the room next door. He asked what time it was.
When Chief Arena called into the Edgartown Police Station to reiterate the need to find Kennedy, it turned out the senator was already there. Over the phone, Kennedy asked Arena to meet him at the station. Still damp from his dive into the pond, Arena hitched a ride with Dr. Edward Self, president of the local residents' Chappaquiddick Association, into town. Kennedy was "poised, confident, and in control. Using my office and telephone.
"On July 18, 1969, at approximately 11:15 p.m...I was driving my car on Main Street on my way to get the ferry back to Edgartown," the statement read, per Damore."I was unfamiliar with the road and turned right onto Dike Road, instead of bearing hard left on Main Street. After proceeding for approximately one-half mile on Dike Road I descended a hill and came upon a narrow bridge. The car went off the side of the bridge.
But after a few hours went by and Arena hadn't yet heard back from the Kennedy camp, he read the statement to reporters at 3 p.m. He also said the senator had been"cooperative" and speculated that being in a"state of shock" could have accounted for the nine-hour delay in reporting the accident.With utmost irony, considering putting a man on the moon before the 1960s were over had been one of JFK's primary goals for the U.S.
But it was only hours before the press found out what Kennedy had been doing on the island—partying with a group that included six young women, which he had neglected to mention in his statement. His press secretary Dick Drayne characterized the gathering as being more in honor of Bobby Kennedy than a post-regatta bacchanal.
