Public Advocate Thankful that Kennedy Plane Lightning Strike was Injury Free
Although it must have been an extremely frightening experience for those involved, Public Advocate members thank God that neither Senator Kennedy, his family, staff or pilots were injured when a bolt of lightning struck the Senator's airplane.
"Public Advocate is simply glad that everyone is safe," said Public Advocate President Eugene Delgaudio. "While we do not believe that this was a result of the Senator's work against Family Rights, we do wish that Mary Jo Kopechne would have had the same luck thirty-seven years ago."
