Robert F. Kennedy Jr. apologized to Eliza Cooney via text message after she publicly accused him of sexually assaulting her in the 1990s. She said she feels the third-party presidential candidate’s apology was “disingenuous and arrogant.”
The text message was first reported Friday by the Washington Post. “Hey Eliza. It’s Bobby Kennedy. I hope you are well. Please call me if you have a moment,” Kennedy wrote in his first text to Eliza, which was sent on a Wednesday.
Kennedy followed up the next day with a second message saying he has no recollection of the alleged assault, but maintained that he feels remorse if he caused her harm.
