It's Episode 2 of our deep dive into the heartbreaking, tragic, and totally preventable story of Rosemary Kennedy - this week we get into the dark details (or at least...as much detail as we can find from this family that hides everything) about what happened to Rosemary, why it happened to her, and what it means as we look down the barrel of the Secretary of Health and Human Services being Rosemary's nephew who survived a brain worm, heroin, and a dead bear cub in Central Park just to tell us not to be vaccinated...Do we find a light at the end of the tunnel? Unclear - it could just be the oncoming train.
