#6 In DC Republican circles soon after the incident, the insider story was "A third theory has a third person in the car (Rosemary Keough: one of the six “boiler room girls” at the party). A variation of this suggests that it was, rather, a prominent politician’s wife whom Ted wanted to mess around with. Mary Jo was in the back seat sleeping, unbeknownst to Ted and his mistress (having said she was tired at the party (or alcohol/drug effects), and wishing to get away from the noise there). When the accident happened, Ted and the woman escaped, apparently still not knowing that Mary Jo was in the back seat. So either Ted didn’t know she was there until much later when she failed to turn-up at home. It explained the huge time hole in his story and simply had to be hidden.
