Scathing letter warns senators about danger her relative poses if confirmed as health secretary. Caroline Kennedy, cousin to the current pick for health and human services secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, penned a scathing letter warning senators about the danger her relative poses if elected to power and calls him a “predator”.
“I have known Bobby my whole life; we grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because he himself is a predator,” she wrote, before going on to say that his victims have included family members and the parents of sick children.
A copy of the letter was sent to lawmakers ahead of Robert F Kennedy Jr’s confirmation hearing on Wednesday presumably in hopes of deterring his appointment. Caroline alleges that his “crusade against vaccination” has served to benefit him financially, and that his actions are hypocritical to what he publicly states.
She said that he had discouraged parents from vaccinating their children while in fact vaccinating his own children. He also influenced other members of the Kennedy family “down the path of drug addiction”, the letter alleged. She also stated that her father, President John F Kennedy, and her uncle, former US attorney general Robert F Kennedy, would be “disgusted” by the actions of her cousin.
