Mary Jo Kopechne
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Mary Jo Kopechne (July 26, 1940 - July 18 1969) was a congressional staffer for U.S politician Edward Kennedy. Kopechne died after a car driven by Kennedy turned off the road in Chappaquiddick, Massachusetts and crashed into a pond. It is assumed she died from drowning, although her parents filed a petition barring an autopsy.
