Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Claims to Have Placed Dead Bear Cub in Central Park
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently made a shocking claim in a conversation with Roseanne Barr, stating that he placed a dead bear cub in Central Park 10 years ago. This revelation was released in a video on Sunday, reportedly in an effort to preempt an upcoming article in The New Yorker.
The Controversial Bear Incident
Kennedy explained to Barr that he had intended to skin the bear and store the meat in his refrigerator after a day of falconry and a dinner in New York City. However, due to time constraints, he decided to leave the bear in a New York City park next to a bicycle from his car, making it appear as though the bear had been hit by a cyclist. This event garnered attention in the media, despite Kennedy not being directly involved in the discovery of the bear.
Response to New Yorker Report
In anticipation of an upcoming article in The New Yorker that was expected to include details of the bear incident, Kennedy proactively shared the story in the video released on Sunday. A campaign official confirmed that the decision to release the video was prompted by the knowledge that The New Yorker intended to cover the incident. Despite the potential backlash, the campaign expressed confidence that there would be no legal repercussions from the incident.
Overall, the revelation of the bear incident by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has sparked controversy and raised questions about his actions and motivations. As the story continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the public and the media will respond to this shocking revelation.
