High Friends in High Places



You may recall back in May we reported that Mary Richardson Kennedy had been arrested for Driving While Intoxicated in Bedford Hills, NY.

Well, you'll be happy to know that the case has been settled and she won't serve any jail time. She pleaded guilty to a lesser charge so she has to pay a $500 fine, have her license suspended for 90 days and attend two drunk driving classes.

We didn't know at the time that her husband, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., had just filed for divorce. Apparently she attempted to drown her sorrows and then took her dog for a drive.

The judge received lots of letters supporting Mary including a couple written by her mother-in-law and sister-in-law. Even Dan Aykroyd wrote a nicey-nice note.
