"Kennedy Cousin Skakel Files Lawsuit Against Greenwich for 'Wrongful' 1975 Moxley Murder Case Conviction"

Michael Skakel has filed a lawsuit against the town of Greenwich and former detective Frank Garr, alleging civil rights violations during the investigation of the 1975 murder of Martha Moxley. Skakel, a relative of the Kennedy family and Moxley's neighbor, was convicted in 2002 but had his conviction vacated in 2018. The lawsuit accuses authorities of ignoring evidence, intimidating witnesses, and pursuing Skakel for fame and potential financial gain. Skakel's attorney asserts it's time for accountability and for the untold stories of the wrongful conviction to be heard.
