...grand jury investigation is theoretically possible. But it did nothing to solve the mysteries that still surround the case or to resolve the doubts about Kennedy's veracity. It also failed to account for local officials' inept handling of the case from beginning to end. Police Chief Dominick Arena never asked Kennedy why he had not reported the accident for nine hours. District Attorney Edmund Dinis seemed noticeably reluctant to enter the case at all, then pressed belatedly?and vainly?for court permission to exhume Mary Jo's body so that an autopsy could be performed.

...successful operation of rackets is control over the police, and often the conversations involved this subject. One, in 1963, deals with Dominick Capello, then recently confirmed as superintendent of the New Jersey state police.

...pejorative Capitol Hill term for the executive branch. John Sherman Cooper of Kentucky has been getting no answers to his letters to Postmaster General Winton Blount; when Blount invited Cooper to his office recently to talk over a Post Office problem, Cooper refused to come. Colorado's Peter Dominick is still seething over a contretemps with a second-echelon Treasury Department official, and even Karl Mundt of South Dakota-a staunch Nixon loyalist-complains of the "remoteness" of Administration staffers. The President himself angered many Republican Senators of every political hue. They could rarely...
