I believe you are referring to the automobile accident which killed Mary Jo Kopechne, an office worker for the Kennedy family- and only slightly injured Edward ( Ted) Kennedy. This was almost ( Kennedy having survived) an American equivalent of the Mayerling tragedy. If both had died- it may well have been. Mary Jo died of a combination of drowning and suffocation as her body floated about in the Oldsmobile Delmont. Kennedy got out and pronto- but did not notify the authorities until 9 hours after the accident. Something very strange here.
