Erin and I (Jamie) return to the story of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy in this special episode. This time we focus on the final hours leading up to the 1999 plane crash that killed John F. Kennedy Jr., Carolyn, and her sister Lauren.Drawing directly from the official NTSB accident report and other primary sources, Erin breaks down the chain of events—weather conditions, pilot experience, aircraft details, and widespread misconceptions—to offer a clear, factual “anatomy” of what happened that night. Along the way, we address persistent myths, discuss how public perception of the Kennedys has shifted, and reflect on the cultural moment in which the tragedy occurred. Our hope is a respectful and hopefully illuminating look at a story often clouded by rumor.Tell us your thoughts! Do you agree with our take?
