RFK Jr. stuck his hand in the Central Park bear’s mouth. Necropsy shows he may have been knuckle-deep in her leaked brain.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is running as an independent candidate in the 2024 presidential election.

Kennedy’s revelation that he was involved in moving the bear’s corpse came too late for any law enforcement action over his possession or disposal of the corpse, said Wernick, of the environmental department.

“The statute of limitations for these offenses is one year; charges cannot be brought for incidents that occurred more than one year ago,” Wernick told BI.

Aside from the roadkill incident, the bear cub and Kennedy may have something else in common: Both may not be from New York.

On Monday, a New York judge found that Kennedy’s use of his Westchester County address was not a “bonafide and legitimate residence, but merely a ‘sham’ address that he assumed for the purpose of maintaining his voter registration.” Kennedy’s true home residence is in California, where he has lived with his wife, “Curb Your Enthusiasm” actor Cheryl Hines, the judge found.

A DNA test for the bear cub found it might be from New Jersey — not New York.

Lab technicians who analyzed the bear’s DNA found it was likely from the Sterling Forest region, which stretches across the New Jersey-New York border.

It was more similar to New Jersey bears — but the sample size was too small to be definitive, according to the necropsy report.

Kennedy is appealing the court decision over his residency. During the trial, he discussed the bear carcass with reporters.

“I’ve been picking up roadkill my whole life. I have a freezer full of it,” he told journalists at the courthouse.
