...withdrawn. But the document circulated, and last week, 25 years after the bludgeoning of Martha Moxley in Greenwich, Conn., Michael Skakel was confronted with a vengeance. He was indicted for her murder. Police showed up to arrest Skakel at the half-million-dollar Florida home he shares with his golf-pro wife and child, but he was already on a plane north. He turned himself in to Connecticut police, pleaded not guilty and was released on $500,000 bail...

Adding to the furor was a factual account, Greentown, by Greenwich resident Dumas, who related unsavory stories of a young Tommy trying to strangle a fellow prep-school student and Michael "whacking the heads off of squirrels"--with a golf club. The Kennedy Smith rumor resulted in a suggestion by Connecticut medical examiner (and later O.J.-trial expert witness) Dr. Henry Lee that the Moxley case be reopened. This seems to have provoked Rushton Skakel into hiring a detective agency, Sutton Associates, to clear his family name...
