Kerry Kennedy skates on drugged driving charge
2014-03-01
You drive while Kennedy and not suffer consequences. Kerry Kennedy is free to save Ugandan gayz.
Kerry Kennedy gave herself a hearty round of applause as jurors Friday found her not guilty of drugged driving.

Kennedy, daughter of the late Robert F. Kennedy, began clapping minutes after Supreme Court Justice Robert Neary dismissed the six-person panel from his Westchester County courtroom around 10:15 am.

Her lawyers, mom Ethel Kennedy and a squad of Kennedy cheerleaders joined in the ovation.

"I'm happy that justice was done," Kennedy said before leaving the courtroom.
Strange definition of 'justice' in that one...

#11  Maybe for her next trick she will take up flying and load an entire bird up with relatives and then go full IMC on a (barely) VMC license.

#10  I'm like totally shocked and surprised at this outcome. You could knock me over with a 2x4!

#9  Seems to be an outbreak of affluenza on the east coast. Shit lady, you just bought yourself out of trouble which would have had me in jail, lost license, strain on my vocation to say the least, and fines fees and stigma - at least have the decency to not give yourself yappy applause until your fifth scotch in private.

Standing. @cking. Ovation.

#7  For filing, look for the old, 'dog eared' folder labeled "non-swimming Oldsmobiles."

#4  Outside court, KennedyÂ’s mom and family matriarch Ethel Kennedy, 85, said she was ready to “celebrate.”

She's in with that Irishman. She'll be ringing for us to come up shortly.

#1  It was silly to charge her anyway. The nobility have never been held to 'common laws' like the rabble.

Just ask Uncle Ted!
