Dear Mr Kopechne, assert yourself in the interests of the good name of your daughter. Get yourself a good lawyer and sue that no good son of a bitch, Edward M. Kennedy, for everything he's got.
His intent from start to finish was a forced illicit sexual intercourse and rape of your daughter, and since the accident was based thereon, he should be prosecuted and tried for murder.
There were no mitigating circumstances. His TV speech was written for him by a dozen lawyers and speechmakers, and was not his own. The cheap two-bit hypocrit!
Sincerely,The letter was released by cousins of Mary Jo.
Muhammad Ali Cassius Clay.
It's one of thousands of letters they received in support.
The Kopechne family waited to release the letter because they didn't want a negative letter to reflect badly on the sender but in the specific case of the Ali letter they felt it was time to thank him for coming to her defense years ago.
Comments all over the place are extremely harsh.

The Kopechne’s received $90,000 from Ted plus a $50,000 insurance payout. Until at least the 80’s Mary Jo’s parents asked their daughter’s friends, who were at the party that night, to reveal what happened. The women never did and the Kopechne’s were bitter for the rest of their lives. Would the public have supported a lawsuit against the overgrown frat boy? Maybe. But after the violent deaths of three brothers and the deification of two and the amputation of his young son’s leg in 1973 Kennedy played the tragic hero to the hilt. His money would have over-powered any attempt by a middle-class family for damages and that is assuming that any Massachusetts attorney would have touched the case. Mohammed Ali was a man of courage and decency and he wrote the truth about Ted, a shabby excuse for a man. Ted died knowing he was held in disdain by decent people as a drunk, a man-child, a liar and a reckless fraud whose family name was the only thing that kept him out of a gutter or a jail.

"Illicit sexual intercourse" was in Ali's vocabulary? Color me skeptical.
It's amazing the things one can learn either by being part of or observing those who encountered rough justice in the Jim Crow south.
When I moved to Boston I learned the phrase "lewd and lascivious cohabitation" - them there Y*nkees are a bunch of prudes, I'm tellin' ya!
"The Kopechne family waited to release the letter because they didn't want a negative letter to reflect badly on the sender"
Interesting and horrifying. The family knew that the left would destroy anyone who threatened one of its own, even a super-celebrity like Muhammad Ali. So they kept this letter a secret all these years and only release it now that both men are dead.
What else is being suppressed in good faith fear of how The Left will stomp on anyone who threatens their avatars of the moment? You just know there's some rancid Obozo stories out there that, much like Ms. Kopechne, have been entombed and asphyxiated and will never surface alive. To say nothing of the Clintons. Ever. Or you might die. (whispers: likewhathappenedtosethrichjustsayin'.)
Kennedy should have been handed his head in 1969. But in those days republicans ponce.
If you remember, though, Teddy Kennedy was politically dead outside Taxachusetts after that.
The Demos and the media may have still loved him, but the country wouldn't have elected him dog catcher.
