Where RFK’s granddaughter and great grandson are missing & presumed drowned after they didn’t return from canoeing in Chesapeake Bay - their canoe was found later
The granddaughter’s mom, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, is RFK’s eldest daughter & a 2 term MD Lt. Governor - her grandson is only 8 years old
What that family has been through over the years......

The mother’s body was recovered, son still missing
The current they got into must have been incredibly potent - it was blowing straight out from shore pushing them out into the bay into choppier & choppier water

They had gone to retrieve a kickball that had inadvertently gone into the water, so likely weren’t wearing lifejackets

Canoe overturned, & maybe they got caught in a rip current of some sort - she was found 2 1/2 miles away in 25 feet of water, article said
