Who is Michael Skakel?
Michael Christopher Skakel is an American prison inmate. He was convicted in 2002 of the 1975 murder of Martha Moxley, his 15-year-old neighbor in Greenwich, Connecticut. He was sentenced to 20 years to life. In 2013, he was granted a new trial by a Connecticut Judge and released on $1.2 million bail; the decision is now being appealed by the prosecution. The case attracted worldwide publicity owing to a "Kennedy connection" as Skakel is a nephew of Ethel Skakel Kennedy, widow of Senator Robert F. Kennedy.
