Kerry Kennedy Says Ambien 'Overtook' Her, Causing Car Crash
77WABC Radio.com | 2/27/14

A jury was poised to begin deliberations after Kerry Kennedy told them how she accidentally took prescription sleeping pills that then "overtook" her, causing her to crash her car on a highway. Kennedy, 54, took the stand to testify in her own defense Wednesday in her drugged driving trial. She is accused of driving under the influence of zolpidem, a sleep medication better known as Ambien, and slamming her SUV into a truck on a New York highway in July 2013.One final witness, a forensic pharmacologist, is expected to be called by the defense on Thursday to testify to the effects of Ambien before final arguments are made and the case goes to the jury.Within minutes of taking the stand Kennedy invoked the name of her late father, Robert F. Kennedy. Kennedy's famous lineage has been a focal point for the defense as they've tried to present her as an upstanding citizen with no drug or alcohol problems. The daughter of RFK and Ethel Kennedy, whom she was photographed pushing in a wheelchair into and out of court earlier in the week, is also a niece of President John F. Kennedy and was married to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. "Daddy was the attorney general during the civil rights movement," Kerry Kennedy said after taking the stand, explaining to jurors why she grew up in Virginia. "I have 10 brothers and sisters. My mother raised us because my father died when I was 8," she said. Asked how he died, Kennedy said, "He was killed while running for president."

Funny how the author of this forgot to mention she is also the niece of Teddy Kennedy that drove drunk and killed a woman when he crashed his car off a bridge and left her to die in the water while he ran.

You can bet she will be found NOT GUILT and will walk as she is part of the American ROYAL FAMILY. :x

Acquitted of driving under the influence.

Does that mean:

1-She was not driving? Or....
2-She was not under the influence?

Answers:
1- We know she was driving. She said so.
2-We know she took the pills and was groggy because she admitted it.

So therefore, how could she have been acquitted?

Doesn't almost every drunk driver mistakenly think they are sober enough to drive?

What a joke on Kerry Kennedy's twitter page it honestly says

Expose Injustice
Right Wrongs
Heal Pain
Join US

If she wasn't an elitist Kennedy she would Expose Injustice and right a wrong by handing over her drivers licence and admit she got off because she invoked the Feel sorry for me my Daddy RFK died card. and if she was not a Kennedy she likely would be WALKING like anyone else that kept driving even though the affect of her drugs hit her and she hit a truck. :mad:
